@Labs Dexter it's and indicate dominant hybrid. Super iced grapefruit ( diesel x chronic x skunk1) yeah may run it a little long cos space isnt a real issue.
Heard of molasses but never heard of using raw honey, gonna have to have a little look at that. Cheers again bro
Cool you won't hear allot about honey but for carbs and helps Microbes in the soil = glittering buds DSC_0084.JPG
If you can get this or very similar look for honey that hasn't been boiled over 42c that way you have more micros and goodness. If you have a Holland and Barrett give them a check it's only £3 or the molasses for same price and does the same job as the chems ;)

I was tempted but in a ghetto in uk not ideal to shower the buggers, I did shower em in the bathroom but damage was done and I was late chopped early n hoped that I burned em to death lol.. In a way it was a lesson learnt because my room was getting to a stupid 36c and that was issue one n second was only had a small table fan. I sorted the temps so now my highest is 29 but allways at 26 and the fan situation I got a two bigger fans like tornadoes going off in there and allways make sure you have a nearly 40 to 50 percent run offs.. It's worked a dream for my second grow wich was dinafem deep cheese and ghs the church. Now I'm on grow 3, afghani monster cropped seedling lol and delahaze. Hope I helped

that's caused by insect bites I believe, tiney pinhole and less, no biggy, at least where I reside in wales .
cuts on leaves usualy point to wheevle activity (bug bites roots and leaves show cuts)
Stress must be a factor, as ive got the cuts but no bugs. just as a precaution I removed it from soil and plonked it into my aeroponic setup.
ill try a photo
Yo my friend... Weevle u say, Weevle I found... I nearly shat myself, under went a thorough bleach clean and then a vitax py spray down yesterday, put some new white sheet down on the floor to help with reflection and easier cleaning, went to move on of the pots back and boom this little bastard coming running towards me.image.jpgimage.jpg

Few questions bro, to u or any other willing to help 1. How the fuck did he get there, and is he who could have caused the damage?
2. Did he grow from from a maggot into that, attacking the roots then leaves as he got older?
3. What can I do to prevent this?

Any help will be appreciated ;)

Not an expert but I'm sure bugs and mites are caused by warm room temperature, or if you go out doors like you're garden or green fields then into your grow room by attaching to your clothes.. Or simply where you got your soil from are tramps and not clean then mother goes in to your soil and lays the pluckers there. I got spider mites of a friends tent then into mine very warm tent. I fixed the problem of heat and I don't let my soil get too dry.. Touch wood I haven't had a bug for three grows now. Hope it helps
