Its Not a Frosty plant but what is standing out @Ottafish is how long the Buzz lasts.
And the cure has not had much time for any “taming” yet. None is needed really lol
Don’t worry about the Frost, she has a bunch of good in those Buds, no questions.
This plant was the most environmentally “exposed” of the whole crop and was beaten with winds. (Knocked over from both the South, and a month later the North)
She’s a tough one. Bud shots coming!
Buddy dug-up the Root-system yesterday. He described it as FILLING the 7’ square, flower-bed. The whole root system was chopped-up and shared amongst the beds
found the Double Grape 87 Autoflower plant, to have small dark (flying/crawling) insects on the pot. It was removed from the tent and I used a 1-time application of @JohnnyPotseed’s One & Done spray on the soil surface & the pots exterior.
“ Not spraying the plant itself “, all 5 plants are early in week 3 of Bloom
Diotenaceous Soil was mixed into and onto the Surface soil to prevent insects moving through it.
Plant was relocated overnite for isolation & containment, under a LED.
Grabbed a picture this morning… After watching the photo-periods, I did not see any Bug activity “in the tent”
I believe this is a Thrip below… did not take long to see movement
Are there any specific remedies for this scenario, early in Bloom?
Thanks in Advance gang!
Appears to be only 1 afflicted plant… but there are 4 more plants, that have been intimate in the same tent. DG 87 A, was pictured right in the Middle, below!
A lot of living soil growers recommended that I use rice hulls for fungus gnat protection and keeping the topsoil moist. It shreds the larva and adds silica to the soil as it breaks down.
Next soil mix I’m adding 1:1 perlite/rice hulls instead of just perlite for aeration, fungas gnat battling and silica ammending.
This container may be the issue, plastic w/Holes… staying moist a long-time and I don’t believe its overwatering… becuz I let it dry-out between sessions
You can spray the one-n-done all the way up to day of harvest, with no ill effects, brother. Everything is food grade. You’d be washing the buddage anyhow to get rid of the bugs and shit.
Hi, that concept is more for dry diatomaceous earth, on top of the substrate.
I am using rice hulls as an organic substitute for perlite, I do not use it in mulch.
Rice hulls in pots take more than one growing season to disintegrate, they are very hard because of the silicon, unless you speed up the processes with microbiology and enzymes.
The concept is to grow extraordinary plants with ordinary inputs.
@MissinBissin Well, I had understood exactly the opposite. That you thought the price was ridiculous, this together with the material, which is definitely waste (ordinary things). I’m sorry for the confusion caused.
You know that what I say is because I practice it.
just for S n G’s
