The grow area is on the second floor in a bedroom that hasnt been used 50 yrs. No duct work running through the liv rm haha. No wife either aev ;) The chimney runs along the outside wall and I just tapped into it.
Right on...did you catch the edit about using azamax systemically? Im gettin ready to give a dose to the outdoors. Im noticing all kinds of creatures on the buds, i hate that.
I'm thinking the bubba x convict,,,,,; )
Yea sounding good huh...i got two beans to work with lol. I pollinated the outdoor bubba as well...much more heavy, i should get a good amount there.

No I didn't but went back and caught it, thanks. Hydro store dude mentioned that too. I gave the rest of the flowering girls a spray last night and no ill effects today. I upped the dosage from 7 ml to 7.5 ml per liter. Every 3 days for a week and a half and then once a week and then a maintence program is what was recommended

You should dust between the ones that aren't big enough to touch with diotomaceous earth to nail the ones that hit the ground. You can dust the soil and stalks too, water dissipates it though. I think you can wet it and spray it on too if yo want to go terminator, on the non budding ones anyway. Non toxic, safe, natural, deadly....... :D
No wife to tell you not to dust a bit and your golden! :D

I hear lots about DE. I got a box up in the closet. I used it once.

Is it still effective after it gets wet and dries back out? I used it on top over soil....was hard keepin it dry.

Sort of, on soil it tends to mix with other things and kind of blends down into the pours once it gets wet. On a surface like a leaf it dries and is just the powder like before minus the water. It's just crushed sea shells or something like that. If you use high wall drip pans you can bottom feed while holding a dusting pattern.
3/8 inch coarse sand on topsoil and DE dust is also very effective on fungus gnats

Right on, thanks for the info. I may bring it out this time. Might work well above hydroton...it usually stays dry at the top with my flood and drain system.

I'm hoping these root aphids dont show up next time. I really stressed my grow out dealing with those fuckers. Not a sign of em for a couple weeks now. Bombed the flower room with insecticide, runnin bleach through the system now. This should help with a fresh start.

do 1/2 inch of aquarium rocks on top layer of hydroton to narrow the gaps and make the dust more effective. It may take a couple life cycles to clear the hatchlings but they wont go back down to lay eggs. Maybe a week or two you will have em licked

I also use DE. It is basically mined diatomes, which are super fine shards of crustatians and what not that have fossilised. They are like natural glass shards that stick into the exo skeletons of insects, they will then dry the insect out from the inside. Still effective after being wet but you do need to repeat applications.

What a beautiful morning in the gr mtns! Real nice chill in the air, days are getting shorter,,,,,,we are getting into hc's time of the year!!

Guess I'm going to have to be a little more careful about my grow.....my son just got his drivers license along with a used car haha. After my daughter left yesterday, I was sitting on the porch having a smoke and I see this little car bombing down the driveway....no time to stealth anything, barely time time to put the bubbler aside. Both grow rooms were open upstairs too. To make a short story even shorter, everything turned out fine but lessoned learned. The only reason he did not tell me he was coming over is that he wanted to suprise me with his new car but my kids are very very cool about not just popping in unanounced.

Sampling one of the Grape Ape x Hashberry phenos....nothing wrong with this at all! Good taste and strong stone!! At least for first thing in the morgen lol. This is the second pheno out of three that I have sampled and my thoughts on the first one were about the same : !). Got 5 of these babies potted up and waiting to be flipped in a couple of weeks :)

Man that grape ape x hashberry just sounds awesome. We get grape ape all the time down here. Hashplant which im assuming was used in hashberry is a great strain as well. If i remember correctly hashplant was a bit bland but grape ape has an awesome taste.

New car eh? Right on! I got the babies over to the hydro table. Doin a split veg room right now.

So I was just watering, and inspecting-- anal retentively, of course-- and noticed that my C4 xCaseyband is definitely getting some purple going on on the calyxes! Stoked :weed: . . . I was blown away when I first saw it. Think that it's from the C4 or the CaseyJ lineage? I'm guessing it's NOT from the Headband. . . ?

Talk to ya!

That hindu kush on the headband side along with the afghan indica from shiskaberry side. shiskaberry was used on c4. the traits from these two strains are probably contributing to the purple.... lets see what HC has to say. Im curious too. .

chb is gettin purple with the bsb x cb. its probably that headband.

Yupper, one of those moments ya tuck away and never forget! And yes it was an interesting couple of minutes before we went for a ride lol.

Yeah I'm happy with it so far...yield was average but I might be able to improve on that. Need to take a couple of bud pics while there are still buds to take pics of.

You must be getting your new system down,,,liking what your seeing?

Beautiful pics chris, I took a look at them a little bit ago. I'll have to get back over there in a while. So is the color really purple on that girl? My BSBs get red. I have a couple in the flower that at week 4 like yours....I haven't inspected them real real close yet but I'm going to run up upstairs and take a look. And get some coffee in me lol. Just looked and it's just the calyxs that have any color and it's a purpleish/red. In your pics they look like barney purple :)

C-4 has Shiskaberry as it's father but I don't recall if it was the Red Shiska though. There were no red phenos in the original 4 that I started with. I have a couple of C-4s at 4 weeks in and are soo frosty already!! If I can figure out how to post pics again I'll put some up

I don't recall there being any hindu kush on the headband side unless your going back to it's grandparents. I think this cut is SD x OG. Don't think there is any master kush in this headband cut either. I would think the color on Chris's is coming from the Black Rose grandparent

Just got done push mowing for 2 hours....recovering with some dog kush in the bowl. Took one down a couple of days ago and was going to take the other ones down today at 8 weeks, but not really any amber trics yet, all cloudy which is fine but I'll let it go a couple of more days and then check it again. Same thing for one of the Ice crosses that in the last two weeks has shown the Ice characteristics in the buds, very stoked about that!!! Eight weeks too for her but all cloudy tric. The Beast DOG sativa girl is at eleven weeks and i'll borrow a phrase from cowboy and say her two colas don't look like donkey dicks,,,more like elephant dicks haha. Still clear trics on Dumbo!

The new system is nice. I was impressive with the flavor i got this round. My prior hydro harvests didnt taste like the soil provided me. I can either say my skill in hydro is goin up or botanicare is some good shit in hydro. I stressed this round out and they still finished rather nicely. Next grow ill know not to get root aphids. LOL. Its that damn vermicompost i used for the tea. Dumb move.
Yea that og kush has got some hindu in it. Your right on the grandparents...thats the beauty of genetics, there is a whole genetic makeup that just turns on and off. New phenotypes emerge as we cross certain strains to certain strains. Come check out the ssh x twes comparison.

Cool I will :)

Hey guess who has a hindu kush fairy seed tucked away hehe! Shit is balls to the walls right now though, everything is quite full lol. I should run it through though while I'm doing all of these kushes and kush crosses right now. Lessee...DOG, Lush, Uber Kush x Blue Dream, Coerleone Kush x Headband. Hells bells might just as well through a Hindu Kush in there with them. Then of course there is the Caseyband which is a Headband pheno. Hmmmm forgotten anyone.......? Black Sour Bubble has Bubba Kush in it lol. Anyone else??? Oh yeah, Push seeds!!
