man, my girls have been loving this last week, they were looking pretty sad with all the rain, wind, and lack of sun.

the one i just put out just made it. it was a rough way to harden her off.

So I had aphids, sprayed with water and dishwashing liquid. I don't know if I got the measurements wrong or what, but I burnt the sh*t out of them:fire::fire:. I had a very busy weekend, so when the rain came in last night I went outside to bring my girls in,and thats when I saw the damage:wall::wall:. I sprayed them down with water, but one of the girls was just getting worse. This afternoon she had lost almost all of her leaves, so I pulled her to try to salvage what I could. But for the second girl, is there anything else that I can do to try to reverse what already been done? We live and learn, and I learned to never do this again! Also, if I germ. indoors now, will it be OK to go out in a Month or should I just wait for long season in april. I don't want monsters, for fear of the paka-choppa.

Bummer hawaii420. Sorry for your loss. For future reference try using Neem II or the Safer company makes a liquid soap insecticide for your aphid problem. These can be picked up at any gardening store and I have even seen them at Wal-Mart. They won't burn your plants. Try spraying the remaining girl with plain water and try picking up Safer's Liquid Oxygen. This might help. Good luck!!


Here are some pics of my girls.

I would try a B1 boost as it seems that your plants went into shock... Superthrive is one product that has a nice B1 concentration....

I don't think using straight soap and water was a good idea... One of the main reasons that you use soap with Neem oil and water is so that the soap can act as an emulsifier... (soap keeps the neem oil broken up so it is mixed in evenly with the water.... if you didn't use the soap with the Neem oil, the neem oil would just pool up on top of the water since it is a different density)

Yea I love Fox Farm products but they don't have that particular one here......
Neem Oil is processed from one of the few types of evergreen tree that is resistant to mites..
Neem Oil smells like coffee to me :)

Howzit everyone,
Another Puna boy reppin here cheehee

I've never grown before, looking to start a small little operation to keep myself & my boys fresh stocked with herb
My parents grew on this property for years before I was born, my Mom was actually the first house in Paradise Park almost 50 years ago, and my Dad built that house that they live in now thirty years ago (three stories, 3 bedroom2br) solely from selling pot
They don't anymore however, and I would rather not stress them out by letting them know I am starting

was looking for some advice/mentoring about growing in Hawaii; as all online guides are seemingly aimed at indoor operations & not in this climate & maybe someone to hook me up with some seeds

oh and a big island pot luck would be cherrrry

i think you'll find this site pretty informative, but sometimes overreactive.
the best advice about growing in hawaii is provide element protection from like wind and rain, and don't over fertilize the little plants that we grow here.

ya and make sure you pick a spot no one will ever find!! nothing worse than 5 months of hard work and excitement to only be destroyed.
