    Sorry if I'm reposting but this has made beating the gnats much simpler. Wife wasn't thrilled. These are brand new lol. I pointed out it's a worthy sacrifice for the grow. I learned the hard way to make sure to press down when watering or it runs off lol. I've thought of bottom watering till...

    Fungus gnat experiment #569

    I have it sealed up tight. I figure after a BTi wash and care I hope to have em whooped. I've heard they won't lay eggs unless they can fly away. I don't know if that's true but I'm not scared to hit the soil area with a shot of pyrethrins. Just enough to down any fliers. Peroxide sprayed on top...

    Yep. I'm hoping to keep them going awhile. Stepson is signing the adoption papers for the foster parent to adopt so no more child support so hopefully no more cops showing up looking. These are good phenos for me. They train easy and they're so resilient. The smoke is great. Yeah, I may go ahead...

    Fungus gnat experiment #569

    Well, some of yall beat me to it lol. I had the fkrs beat down, but, as some of yall know, They return.... I failed to sterilize 1 fkn clone. The others I bathed the roots and everything with a BTi wash. I ran out and figured, " Theyre dead so.... they weren't, so ? I have been joking about the...

    Fungus gnat experiment #569

    I've used BTi and it is not 100% effective. Maybe if somebody only has a couple of plants it would be fine, but I tried ALL the listed methods last run and just barely made it to harvest. BTi has to be reapplied every 5 days or so and I used a bunch of crushed Mosquito dunk( bti dunks) tea. It...

    The cuttings are still looking alright. I added a tad of Big Bloom to the water I use. The clones I took the cuttings from are popping pistils. It would be great if I could keep these rolling. It's a nice tough pheno, that bushes out great, can take some abuse and still flowered in 8 weeks. And...

    I want to have an autopot/Coco setup. I've seen alot of folks running coco on autopots that got great yields. I would like to learn DWC , but I'm lazy and sometimes prone to bad days and it just makes me nervous thinking how fast I could fk my plants up in bad DWC. I have been wanting to try...

    I've heard that enough times from too many breeders and growers in the industry to not believe it. I know that personally I've grown same strain same company in two 3 gallon pots. 1 was tall and skinny, other was short and fat. The tall pot yielded 6 zips. The other 3 something. I usually fill...

    Maybe they'll take off soon. It's a difficult thing to hit all the marks in hydro grown autos. I've seen guys really yield quite a lot of really killer looking stuff. I'm sure you're close to hitting yours. I usually seem to do pretty good for the first month. Then if I'm not careful, I'll see a...

    Are those autos or photos? If they're autos , then, they really shoulda gotten a bit bigger in 6 days. Autos are just so sensitive the first rew weeks. But, I don't know shit about hydro so I'd probably stunt mine. If those are photos then you're great if you figured out your issue. I guess...

    I took 4 cuttings last night. I did these same as last time. I cut them and dipped in Clonex and then into a fresh watered peat puck that was halfway up in a container of FFOF. Then I filled them up. Last time I didn't bury the puck completely except on 1. That one did way better so I did em all...

    Man, if I had more light, then I would. Those 3 plants are under just 2 100w QB's. I figure the autos have 4-5 weeks left. After that I can put the big light over the HP's. I'm definitely taking clones and starting those. I'm hoping for another( hopefully better) bar style light by next season...

    Yeah, to work effectively, you need the ones that hum and maybe make your hair crawl when you're near it lol. I keep the hanging yellow tape and the vinegar/sugar/soap traps out. But,, until we find an easy way to kill em for sure in the medium, I fear they'll be a problem. They've definitely...

    I flipped the clones to flower. I'll probably have to switch out to the big light when the autos finish. They're already alot bigger than the first round ended up. If they double I'm gonna have a full 3x3 space. This strain, at least, this pheno, is very hardy. I didn't know shit about cloning...

    It's been a hell of a year for the bugs.... Dude even your Fk-ups look better than most of my stuff...I hate to see you have problems, but, when I see you having to deal with issues too then I don't feel quite as dumb as I was. Sh!t happens. Even to the pros. I've been debating purchasing some...

    I worry about the gnat eggs already in a medium more than stragglers getting in anymore. I heat my soil to 250 degrees for 50 minutes to kill anything in there. This round I know that I just didn't get them completely gone from the clones roots when I transplanted them. It's taken several weeks...

    Mephisto Genetics

    It's a great choice. Stable. Big frosty buds with an almost fuel chem taste. I've grown it a few times and never been disappointed. Mephisto pretty well started the Auto Renaissance commercially. Folks like Daz from Night Owl and Ben from Speedrun have continued the work. These folks do the hard...

    Things were going 'too' well lol. I needed to be humbled again. At least I see that it's not just me. I think this year they're all on steroids or crack or ,,,,,,something lol. When folks like @Star Dog and some others on here have been hassled this year by fungus gnats, then, I don't feel too...

    I had to move the clones cause it's too crowded. The damned gnats have made a resurgence. I am only watering the autos from the bottom now. I mixed up a nute solution and put it in a 5g bucket. I sit the plants in it and let sit for a few minutes. Only water up to halfway. I'm gonna tie the...

    The 3 BBHP clones snapped back after Epsom salt watering and foliar spray. They're already bigger than the last time. I'm gonna try to start some Kosher Kush. Even if I only get a male, I figure I can make BBHP x KK seeds. Had to move them cause the shower was crowded!
