Have a great Memorial Day everyone, from your RIU US ARMY veteran!

Please take a moment today to reflect on how great this country is. That's the reason so many have given all!

I remember my fallen brothers & sisters today, like no other

These freedoms aren't free!

peace

Hope ya had a good weekend RIU and you Doublejj. So that was a great video still very jelous over here lol. Wanted to ask really fast though yesterday i was doin some vending and one place the guys were really smart and he was able to spot out the spider mites evidence from the growing season. Like he saw the very very small dots that are present when spider mites were in the grow season even though they got sprayed. So he turned me down witch i can understand.

But how do i prevent spidermites from ruining my green house grow? Thank you

I spray with Azatrol. Regular spraying keeps them in check.

Lost 2 plants last year to spyder mites. I just removed the plant if they got bad. Didn't even waste the time.

Some strains the mites leave alone, others the eat like candy!

Good luck

peace

P.S. Those buds would make some great hash!

Interesting thanks for sayen that. Does your green house do well on keeping them out? I am just thinking what i could do to secure the sun mesh at the bottom of the walls to keep them out. I would just be devastated to see them get to me. After all the hard work that goes into the gardens. I dont want to dump a bunch of money into the nutrients soil and just little things here and there for this to happen. I guess its a gamble we all take lol.

JJ could you compare that azitrol to the neem oil concentrate we use for fruit and orchard trees in any way? I havent tried azitrol.

from your US Navy Vet lol

I know you can track those mites in on your shoes, when we raised quail we would put on some rubber boots and step in a little foot bath that had a pesticide in it before entering the aviary.

i have used neem back in the day, but it does not compare at all to Azatrol and or Azamax. I have used all three and the choice to go with either azatrol or azamax is a great choice! they both are pretty much the same product just have different name, Neem Oil doesnt even compete with these products!

Azamax: General Hydroponics AzaMax insecticide is a certified organic biological insecticide which provides all the benefits of azadirachtin, a proven natural anti-feedant, insect growth regulator, anti-ovipository and repellent, as well as a toxin to soft bodied insect larvae. AzaMax is OMRI listed and is non-toxic to honey bees and many other beneficials. General Hydroponics Azamax is the same exact formula as Azatrol.

Azatrol: Azatrol is a broad spectrum botanical product for control of insects and mites on indoor and outdoor vegatables and crops, shrubs, flowers, garden vegetables, fruit and nut trees. Azatrol offers an array of effects by acting as a repellent, anti-feedant, insect growth regulator and ovipositioning deterrent. As a molting inhibitor, it prevents insect larvae from developing into adults. Insects will feed less or not at all on treated foliage, ultimately starving to death, they will also fail to mature and reproduce. This complexity also makes it impossible for an insect's resistance to develop - Low odor and OMRI listed.

Same to you!

JJ you have inspired me, and I most likely will be copying this and applying it to my "soon-to-be" backyard. Hope to get it good by next season.

Til Later :joint::peace:

Hey JJ... I asked you before about the maxsea but what do you use for your feeding schedule with it? Is it pretty safe to use every day? Any info would help. Thanks

I use it 1 tbls per gallon once or twice a week. If they won't stay green with once a week, I'll go with twice a week, but always 1 tbls per gl.
Water in between as needed.

JJ I seen someone outside today working on a ladder, they were cleaning gutters. I thought of you haha

How are the ladies doing btw?

I just got some NL99 Sprouts that I am going to grow into some bushes, something I typically do not do. But I have alot of plants going in and out of flower ATM, that I can afford to leave a few behind for some extra veg time.

Anyways, I am battling some insomnia, a bit worse lately, so figured I will drop in and see how things are going.
Take care

Keep it growing!

Hodge, the WQ is vaping smooth! Thanks again bro, I can't wait to see how she turns out for me.

I'll point out a few small changes that I've made. You might notice that I've pushed out the back & side walls. The greenhouse is now 5' wider & 5' deeper, I can already tell, I'm gonna need the room!

I've doubled-up on the drippers. There are now 4ea drippers per pot.

The lavender is getting so big that I've put a 'scrog' screen on top. I'm gonna scrog her. The cages are 5' tall.

Here's how things are doing out in the greenhouse today

peace
