    Massachusetts Outdoor Grow 2019

    thanks for the advice, I think that's about my plan, bring her in for rain & 40s or lower temps... she's got a ways to go, but she really starting to have a great smell. Kinda pine and citrus.

    Whelp - the outdoor season is almost over for me here in Watertown. All my autos finished up, including this massive West Coast OG Auto that's drying up... 1 plant in this pic - I have no idea what the dry weight will be, but I'd suspect 3 - 4oz Not bad for my first season growing, outdoor with...

    Yea, I think spinosad lasts longer than BT montery spray, as far as I know BT is 2 - 3 days "lasting" and you need to reapply every week or so to stave off any new eggs that hatch. Spinosad supposedly lasts 1 - 2 weeks, so you don't need to reapply as often. I suggest also mixing in a organic...

    Yeah! It's Bud Worm Season. Pics

    Yea, it's a "hotly" debated topic, but for outdoor grows where you've almost got to use some sprays, I'm for it. 3 buckets, peroxide in one, water / lemon juice / baking soda the next ,water only the third. Dip and "swoosh" and then hang to dry... (I've never done it, I'm scared... but I'm...

    I was doing alternating weeks of Montery BT and Trifecta, but you're spot on, need to do each weekly at this time of the year. It's a chore!

    Yeah! It's Bud Worm Season. Pics

    awesome to hear, so far no bud rot on my end, and we only had to pull the some autos early due to worms (and my shitty IPM... I'm getting better!) We're gonna get a ton of rain here in MA tonight / tomorrow, so I'm gonna bring the haze indoors and cover the final outdoor auto & hope for the...

    Massachusetts Outdoor Grow 2019

    When that first nasty rain storm hit about 1 month ago, I supported all my heavier nodes with some additional garden wire. This last rainstorm really drenched the buds, but they all held up at least. I couldn't cover them, so support as the best option. cheapeast outdoor / waterproof fan I can...

    I follow a few talented growers and they crush the MM stuff... but you know how it goes. I am in MA like they are, so the hearty plants. grown in the same environment in organic soil really appeals to me. He's mega into uplifting sativa's tho, I think they've only got 1 or 2 real couch lock...

    yea, I use baking soda, water and a drop of peppermint castile soap. I also got a small bottle of trifecta, which is a bunch of essential oils and shit... works great but it's expensive compared to a home-made mixture.

    mass medical strains are amazing, and grown a lot outdoors in the North East US, so they're generally hearty too.

    What's everyone doing to deal with these very cold overnights we've been having with high humidity? Bringing plants in? I'm covering my plants when it's raining.... and every am I give each auto-flower a heavy review & open up the bud sites making sure nothing to moist in there. I'm like 1 week...

    Great thread, with a ton of great suggestions. I'm giving all my plants a Montery BT treatment tonight / again this weekend. I have 3 autoflowers that are too close to harvest to spray however.... Other than manually picking them out & installing some bug netting, any other tips? So far, I...

    How can you tell if it's transitioning? Just see pistils forming? Second question - I'm starting a few photoperiod seeds now (3 of 6 have sprouted) and was gonna leave them outside for a few weeks / or a month. At what point should I worry about setting up the tent and bringing them inside...
