WhoDat Sticky Trap

Awesome bru. Love the shadow going up and down the wall on the right as well:)

So questions questions, because I is either dumb or have missed the explanation.
What's the amount of movement in the light up and down?
Are you using an actuator or a pulley system or other? (I saw the leads on the top in a pic before, but couldn't work out how they moved).
Are you using something in front of your pots to reflect the light? I have found some pots can heat up if in direct range of the vertical rays:)

All right, I'll fuk off now and have some more roibos....:):leaf:

The light moves a total of 4 feet, it stops two feet short of the floor and a foot from the ceiling.

No pulleys but the cords slide through hooks fastened to the wooden frame the light mover is on.

Nothing covering the pots from light except some plant matter, should be completely covered by the end of stretch. It helps the light is moving and not blasting the pots directly. I also keep it fairly cool in there with lots of air movement, since mites were discovered I have it at 72f 22c at screen level so the rest of the room is a bit cooler still. I may cover them next round though! ....... it also helps the containers aren't too small I guess.

Onto the mites :-) I havnt seen a living one in days and their dead bodies are becoming harder to come by, same story for the thrips! Iv been spraying every other day and got to squeeze in a tea foliar this morning. I will make one more batch of pepper spray and use it every three days for the next 12 days then I'll stay consistent with preventative sprays once a week, like I should have been doing.

D, heres a closer look at the mover but not sure how much the pics can tell you though.








Correction, 5 watts.







Bitches.

Rickety Right On! Love that outdoor madness. Know you're not good at smells but I would love to know how they smell. Esp the old time moonshine x yo mama; jacks dream; haterade! Which of them seem to be the hardiest? I tried to breed the haterade to be very bug & disease resistant as her aunts and uncles surrounding her were surrounded w mites and other tumultuous happenings and both of them just kicked ass. Shed the mites like a booty farting fire! And fought the mold like a poonanny in a homeless shelter smelling like summers eve (she keep her body clean)

Funny enough the haterade is the only one that didnt have worm damage :-) I left one plant out to finish and its a haterade. I think im catching piney lime odors from her, very pleasant. The otm ym is nice as well, kinda more of a hmmm, spicier I guess, I'll have to get back to you on that but def interesting smell I like.

Very glad to hear WhoDat! Just got home from the game... we whoooped some serious ass.

Thanks for the Haterade info.. I was hoping those qualities I was breeding for would come out... and indeed they did. Benny420 over at breedbay has a thread called BennyLand or something... he's had the same thing... and the Haterade has the biggest cola's

Hope to see it over there as well! Thanks again... hopefully this will boost some of my seed sales

It's starting to fill in nice in your cabs man. I have a question for you I your tea brew. Do you use something to hold the dry ingredients when it's brewing or just dump them into the bucket?

Dumped into the bucket, I try and mix it up good as I use it and grab anything left then top dress with it. The bags are a cleaner way to go about it.

Sometimes when I'm looking at my plants, the name of this darn thread gets in my head and drives me nuts. In my head I hear kids saying, "who dat, sticky trap?!" I've never even read the thread but the title sure is catchy.

Thanks man. I'm not really sure it's cleaner really. lol. The stuff ends up out of the bag and cleaning the bag is a pain in the arse. lol. I'm gonna be gone this weekend so the tea may brew for longer than 48 hours. Any issues with brewing longer?

What kind of bag are you using then? Pantyhose work fine for me when I use them, no real mess.

You will likely find an off smell to the brew when you get back, add some extra food to begin with. (blackstrap molasses)

That was interesting Who.

The enemy of teas is an anaerobic state.

This can happen with too-much growth...like when the materials
in laundry detergents were killing our waterways: too much food
means too much growth means not enough oxygen.

Running out of food is different....what smell/quality changes will
a food run-out cause?

I appreciate your sharing. I am very new to this part.

Well in an aact there is usually plenty of air pumping in it to support a rather large population, but even with enough air when they run out of food they start dying off opening the door for unwanted microbes taking hold consuming all the dead good guys. At least this is what Im guessing from my experiences. Iv revitalized teas by simply adding more molasses.
I can get you started on the basics but if you want real knowledge I suggest you run far far away bongsmilie google scholar has some amazing stuff on it.


edit: Anytime the smell becomes unpleasant there is something wrong,,, a healthy aact should never stink.

Ahh....something like that, I am sure.
