A Shadey spot to grow, Perpetual organic no till

If you blast it really good, it’s sure to piss those little bastards off.

We are fending ours off well. We sprayed the plants every 3 days, and once we stopped seeing signs, we switched to predator mites. The veg plants are all looking very good.

I defoliated it, man its infested, no webs just the leaves really messed up, I brought the Ogers over and pollinated it, left it in the cab with the males after giving them a good shake, pollen was every where, so I am not going back in the flower room today, to drag the OH out to spray down, I will do it tomorrow and hose the Ogers off as well to kill the pollen. Going to be warmer tomorrow :slight_smile:

Weedly Update back on track.

In the Breeding Cab.

The Ogers girl has been in there with the OH boys 3 days now, I just opened it up again and gave them a good shake. I have bent all the male branches and draped them over the Ogers.

Before shaking.

After shaking, a lot of pollen in the air, good job I sorted all the other plants before doing this last. I will keep her in there a bit longer to make sure, but I don’t think she needs it lol.

In the Seedling Cab.

The BB seedlings doing well.

The front right plant is struggling with the weight of her leaves atm so giving her a little support.


In the Veg Tent.

The BBNK are getting over their leaf, light and Sulphur burn damage. I am going to do another in here this week. I have been reading that it takes about 4 burns, 1 burn every 1-2 weeks, to kill everything off,. Running this tent cooler around 72F - 74F at the moment to discourage any mite remnants hatching on mass.

In the Flower Room.

Things are not looking good, the plants are getting destroyed fast, no matter what I do. Its getting depressing again, not sure I want to put the female Ogers in here even if it is only being used for experimental seed making. For those with a faint heart dont look lol.

Oregon Huckleberry, stripped 90% of its fan leaves, heavy spray down with the hose, not that its made any difference really, just waiting for it to hermie now from the freezing cold water, just to top it off and add insult to injury :persevere:

Removed all the dying leaves off the small Sebs Rev as well as the 2 bigger ones. She has gone down hill fast in the last 4 days the little fuckers are sucking her dry.



The 2 bigger Sebs Rev fairing a little better, but its starting on them now and with 7 weeks left I think, they will be getting hammered as well. Not sure its worth wasting my energy or the electric on them :sob: If I wasn’t down to my last 2 grams of CBD oil, I would incinerate them now and be done with it, until after I get back from vacationing and start again.

Cheers

More topical or internal?
A friend made some dragon and it didn’t touch me???

It’s RSO and she takes it orally, but just recently topicaly as well. I think possibly with your THC use, all your CBD receptors are filled up, reducing its function.

THC will bind to both THC and CBD Receptors but CBD only binds to CBD receptors.

My wife uses very little THC products.

Weedly Update.

In the Breeding Cab.

The OH boys are spent, and done their job. They are now going outside in the cold.

The Girl Oger is looking happy apart from some mite activity, going to drown them tomorrow in the sink. Should be easy on a small plant like this. All her pistils have gone brown now just got to keep her fed well.

Orgy mess, pollen and flower sacks everywhere :joy: :joy:

In the Seedling Cab.

The 6 BB are doing good, I will re pot these this week, they are getting to need watering every other day now.

In the Veg Tent.

The BBNK and the DBHP are starting to look like they need some more food adding. That will happen tomorrow when they get watered. Going to bend some branches they are getting taller. Should be a good size when they get to go in the ground in June.

In the Flower Room.

Things are looking sad. I notice that as the mite damage gets worse their stems and branches are changing green to dark purply red, from the stress of all the chlorophyll being sucked out of them :frowning_face:

The Oregon Huckleberry at 9 weeks today, checked her trichs and she is ready to chop.

Nicely covered in trichs, wondering if mite stress induces more trich production :thinking:

Small Sebs Rev at 7 weeks now, she doesn’t have a leaf undamaged just going to leave them to it and see how they do, hopefully I will get enough bud to make some oil.

The 2 big Sebs Revs still got some green on them at 4 weeks from flip, but its slowly disappearing :frowning:

That Mazar I have made a shitload of oil, 3 grams from a sack.
Is this normal more or less?

3 Likes

I usually get somewhere around 10 to 15 percent return of oil weight to trimmings and popcorn weight used, depending on the more bud I use the higher the oil amount.

Read here someone saying that if you pinch the leaves with a needle plant thinks she’s attacked and bitten by bugs so it produces more resin as a defence icon_e_surprised|nullxnull, who knows? ejem|nullxnull

this is a valid worry. Dust can be explosive. Have to be pretty dry but not out of the realm of possibility. Can you filter the intake? Long past likely.

4 Likes

Yeah I have a filter on both in and out ducts. on my veg tent, clones and seedlings cab and this cab I built for breeding. Not sure if its fine enough to stop pollen though. I dont go into the flower room on days I open the breeding cab up to check.

Lol just realized you probably mean the heater, no I dont have a filter on that, I would not want to restrict the air in, in case it causes the same problem. I took it out yesterday and blew it out with my airbrushing air line, it wasn’t too bad.

Yeah that’s what my worry was with the heater, I have experienced dust exsplosions. My first job when I left school was a metal finisher.

I was re shaping my cotton polishing mops with a sharp knife, which was creating a lot of cotton fiber dust, but was being sucked up the extraction vent.

A new guy who had just started, came up to the machine next to me and started grinding some hardened steel, he forgot to cover the extraction vent on his machine and the duct from both our machines joined six feet away into one piece.

That one piece became several pieces with a very loud bang, which set fire to all the ducting and the roof of the building as bits were blown off as the explosion travelled through the duct to the extractor.:confused:
