Chocolate fountain + tub of mucilage = fly-trap party of horrors?

Less.

I sow the covercrop along with the cannabis. So by the time it’s all mature there’s so much activity going on in the soil… and the more activity there is, the more moisture is held, or rather cycled throughout the entire ecosystem. Much exchanges of fluids going on between the millions of species. One eats the other, and they all shed excrement, however tiny the microbes may be. Same goes on in our guts, the excrement of microbes is what feeds us and keeps us alive, in extremely basic terms.

And fungi are also masterful at absorbing and holding water.

Also the kitchenscraps etc that I topdress with are mostly water, like most fruit and veg, so there’s that too.

So don’t be afraid of letting your plants wilt, they won’t die from one day of lack of water. Keep track of the amount of days between last watering and wilting, then knock off a couple of days until the next watering. Then you’ll have a good idea of how much water your setup needs in your environment.

A full half liter jar last time. The buds cut into crumble with scissors and decarbed.

About enough to keep me going until next harvest.
I only eat a teaspoon a day though.

May not be much to many of you, but the quality is there.
No noticable tolerance either, microdosing just keeps working.

The good, ugly and the desperate times lol

Long story short, thanks to all the Gnats & that the plants growing arnt gonna amount to much & since my wife won’t touch this crop with a 10 ft pole , I’m tossing EVERYTHING AGAIN…

EXCEPT BOG Sour Strawberry :strawberry: that’s growing a handful of Seeds, I’m keeping this 1 plant to finish the seeds, that’s it.

Will start new Again soon as this BOG momma is Finnishd…


She’s in a sad state, but I’m making her produce a small hand full of beans to start new with…

Have you tried “Ortho Home Defense Max No Pest Insecticide Strip” ?
I had a problem with gnats in the summer…I bought 2 of those pest strip things and let my pots dry out more, and they were gone. :man_shrugging:

Good info thanks .

This is good info but it doesn’t really matter now.
The whole reason I grow is for the wife and she ain’t gonna consume this batch anyways so in the end it’s easier to take the loss and restart once the beans are done.

I do appreciate the info however, it’s much appreciated .

Damn brutha, I hate to see bad things happen to good people! Starting over is never the end, its only the beginning. Maybe adding beneficials before planting would help keep them at bay. You wont get rid of them completely but rather stay manageable.

Yeah that’s how I look at it. It’s a freshness to it…

I’m flip flopping between doing 25 to 35 party cups in seed starter strays from start to finish OR
Just do 5 or 6 1 gal pots. :thinking:

Yikes, from start to finish!!?? I’m def interested!! Everyone says the bigger the better but, to each his own right!? I would personally opt for the 1 gal route.

I’ve done the party cups before, got about 7G per plant dried. So not too bad lol I do like variety haha.

I say DO IT!!! If variety is what you’re looking for, thats the way to go… I wonder what the record is for dried solo cup weight. I guess veg times would play a role for sure.

One of the last times I did the party cups.
