3rd day of lost cost plant therapy don’t see any mites but that’s not to say I’m done spraying 2 3 more days then every other day and slowly tapering off. Wanna get these buggers before flower. Industry does it but i don’t wanna spray my buds. I was told it’s okay to spray buds as long as you keep the lights off and let them dry before turning the lights back on rather avoid that all together tho
Been about a week since fixing my plants did a nectar reset per gallon 1 ounce of Herculean harvest and 1 TBS of gaia mania ph to 7.5 then bring it down with carbonated water to 6.3. Water till a little bit of run off and a week and 1 feed later
they’re perky aginThe thing behind the reset was to give it a butt load of calcium and fast and the carbonated water turns the liquid lime into something more available to the plant idk the exact science behind it it was explained in a video but it worked
Before the reset
Well they look a lot happier now, another week and they should be back to darker green leaves
Gave them a basic feed plus extra nitrogen and calcium. Figured they could use it but they look a lot happier
Also would anyone happen to know if i were to alternate pesticides like lost coast plant therapy and big time exterminator would i have to worry about a reaction?
So long as you leave a couple of days in between you should be good, it is actually recommended to use 2 or 3 different types to stop them becoming resistant to whatever you are using.
I have used 90% alcohol and water, bleach and water, diluted right down if you want I can give you the exact % amounts of each. As well as Safers end all insecticide soap and neem oil and water.
You can also bag up the pot and tape it around the trunk of the plant to keep the soil in the pot, and suspend them upside down in a 5 gal bucket of water for 30 minutes to drown the bastards if the plant will fit in a 5 gal bucket. Its better to spray the underside of the leaves and stems with the insecticidal soap first so no air can create a thin film between the leaf surface and water protecting the mites.
Like this.
Holy shit that’s intense that’s awesome tho and good to know you have a lot of wisdom and i love it. Idk how i feel about spraying bleach or dunking my plants hahaha if push comes to shove i may have to do these things but i might as well just kill and restart unless I’m tryin to save genetics i guess like
My slapz and a funky charms if i ever get a clone i guess it’s in the works
So i just did 4 days in a row of lost cost so i should wait like 2 days before i treat with BTE i started the lost coast when i saw webs and threw out the plants with webs they weren’t doing much anyway and one was a seedling. So i yeeted them bitches and started treatment on everything else
What ever you are spraying it’s good to give them a couple of days in between otherwise you may get a build up on the leaves and suffocate them. I sprayed every 3rd day on mine.
It’s good to give them a spray down with plain water as well, in between your mite killing sprays to remove residue and allow the leaves to breath again.
Started to see some droop again tested the soil and it was 7.0ph a little high so i gave em a gaia flush to buffer and feed run off came to 6.7 6.8
I
Might just flip them sooner than later get things goin I’m going for a monthly harvest
Not really sure what’s going on here my numbers are ideal 6.3 ph being the lowest and 6.8 being the highest TDS range 589 to 390ppm
So IVE UPGRADED YALLL well in space traded my 2x4 for a 4x8 doubled my size and got a Mars hydro 250 watt? Not sure got it for 150
Got an oscillating fan in there.
Also idk why but it took me about a month to discover i was over watering my plants haven’t givin em water for 5 days now pots are drying out nicely i gave em all a big bear hug to loosen that soil for better aeration once they dry out I’m not making that mistake again all the signs were there and i wasn’t watering my better looking plants nearly as much
You got a bit of space to move around in there now looks good I think you could lower those lights a bit as well
I agree haha I’m excited to have all the space
My dispo job manager hit me up said get to my house ASAP i got plants. I will get a strain count and everything tomorrow morning of what i got i know pint sized is in the mix animal mint cookies slapz granny apple sass
So it looks like we got
2 white widow
1 blueberry
2 animal mint cookies
1 granny apple sass
1 slapz
1 runtz
And a mystery could be rainbow gelato or specimen X
It was so chaotic tryin to sort the plants and everything we were trying to hurry to get em home and in soil 2 maybe dead in my soil right now
I ended up with 4 in a cup labeled slapz but only got 2 slapz so mistakes have been made just gotta flower em and find out
May have lost 3 more plants but that’s okay! I didn’t need 28 plants
Just gna fuck around and find out and try and keep some of these genetics alive via cloning since i don’t have the room for a mother
That’s a lot of plants, your going to need another tent lol, good luck with the cloning man.
I got a 8x4 now lol I’m going to give some of the 7 spritzer away that i have don’t need that many i just end up taking left overs my buddy can’t get rid of or keep anymore he don’t like killin em and i don’t either so if i can i rehome them grow them out or last resort is kill them and it’s usually doubles and the weaker one
Just make sure you check them for mites
