exactly.

one of the joints on my hoop house weakened, came out, and blew right through the side of the greenhouse. after i repaired it, i just taped over the hole, no big deal.

what can't duct tape fix?

Thanks a lot man im sure a ton of it has to do with the sun for sure these ladies still get like 9 hours direct a day. Free clones are always nice to come by next year try adjusting them for like 10 days before putting them out for the long haul I believe this helped me a ton.

Bud worm battle is still going I just invested in a 4 gallon backpack sprayer that works like a fn champ! Spraying bt every 3 days just because I dont wanna deal with these things. I have seen a total of 6 since the garden was started and I spend a ton of time looking. I noticed that there is praying mantis on every plant and they are starting to get huge I assume thats a huge reason i rarely see any other bugs. I also released 50,000 wasps total and plan on doing more.

30,000 more wasps released today! Get them caterpillars boys!

I'm spraying weekly with Azitrol for spyder mites, it works on worms also.

Good luck bro, the war has just begun!

peace
doublejj

If I could +REP you more, I would. Lookin sick.



EDIT: PS - What are you feeding them. Still making tea or just nutes now? Did you decide to stop spraying because a few are showing flower?


[x] Interested

Still making tea and feeding it on a weekly basis. I started feeding half veg and bloom but have only done it once. I am feeding again tomorrow and will be trying to get them on a water...tea....water...nute...water...water ..nute schedule weekly schedule. Ladies are growing like crazy and it seems every time I give them maxsea they go ape shit a few days later and seem to be loving every minute of it. I still spray a lot and keep spraying bt every 3 days aswell as a weekly spray of protek. I haven't seen that many bud worms still a total of 7 on the year but I don't want anything to be an issue as I move forward so I will continue to bt spray for at least another week. I put 6 foot deer fence around the whole garden due to several deer and rabbits but everything is as safe as I can get it now. Thanks for stopping by I hope to have a new video up soon.

Protek is the silica?


What are you doing for Cal/Mag?


Hopefully all those wasps killed all the nearby moth eggs. Did you notice anything with them, or just released them and hoped for the best?



Been noticing any other pests? What did you end up doing with nematodes?



Never tried keeping critters away with coyote piss?



You been doing anything interesting to introduce more diverse microbes in your tea? Forest soil, algae, stream/pond water, various manures, worm castings?



In the next video, you should take your time and let us get a closer look at them, rather than flashing a couple plants and walking by.





Everything else looks sick. Can't wait to start seeing more buds.



Also, what about molasses? You been adding that to water/nutes? Or just in the tea? Keep those microbes fed.

that is a shit load of weed. way more than i could ever smoke. who you gonna sell all that weed too and dont you worry about competition if your gonna sell to dispensaries. maybe you plan to open a dispensary. there is so much too worry about growing that much weed man. how long will the shelf life be if not cured perfectly, its gonna be tough trimming and curing all of it when its ripe at the same time. i only have 3 plants and its more than i can smoke in 1 year i think. what are your plans bro.

How about you let him worry about how much he grows and what he is going to do with it.



Fuck off, imo.

Spinosad works like a dream on budworms. It also has a residual control like 20x longer than Bt. Organic, safe for beneficials, etc etc....
