Lots of love in the Longhouse

I figured if there’s some ugly bugs in there already… again :man_facepalming:t3: May as well throw some pretty ones in there to look at too! :joy: If they eat the bastard, alien bugs… Bonus! :grin:

I’ve got a couple of green grasshoppers living in my flowering tent. If I can find them I’ll post a picture. I can’t find any evidence they’re eating but they’re healthy and surviving after a couple of weeks…

The hope is the plants will produce more stuff that we like to protect themselves from being eaten.

Still working on my space issues! :joy: Scrounged up some stuff I had laying around and expanded the spare bathroom a bit more. :man_shrugging:t3:

And this…

Does in fact, lead to this…

I’m a lady bug farmer! :partying_face: :crazy_face::joy:

These little dudes don’t play… just eat! You can literally watch the aphids disappear! :skull_and_crossbones:

awesome glad your bugs are doing their thing. I let lady bugs go in my tent but none of them either laid eggs or they got stressed and didn’t hatch.:sleepy:
Did you get much from Beryl or whatever the hurricane was called? My dad lives in suburb of Houston and still doesn’t have power running on generator. Also the gas stations if they have fuel 1-4 hour wait and hope they don’t empty the tanks before your turn.

@420noob Hey, bud! :wave:t3: Yeah man! I wasn’t expecting them to breed but there’s a few little alligators running around, chowing down in there now.:partying_face: I was worried all the adults were going to die off before the plants finished out and the aphid population would explode before harvest. Then the real aphid attack began. A few larvae eat as much as the whole bucket of adults! :joy:
I’m in the central part of the state. Pretty lucky here as far as the hurricane went. It rained a small amount.:+1:t3: I know @Smooth and Jet got hit pretty hard! Hopefully they’re recovering well. :pray:t3:

@THCeed I figured out how to properly use the tape
measure in the tent.:joy: Ya gotta go top down!

Sanders OG has the OG stretch!

5” till I hit the top. 3 1/2 weeks in flower. If she’s done stretching, I might not have to bend or break her. :grin:

Included in this pic is one of my nice, big, juicy aphids… for your viewing pleasure, of course. :crazy_face:
Pretty little leaf she’s weezing the juice out of though…right?

Looking great in here!! Plants everywhere. Love the ladybugs. I’ve felt shitty since yesterday when I sprayed my roses and saw a ladybug get sprayed. Been praying it was fine. I hate having to spray that stuff, but roses in FL are tough. Keep up the great work!!

My dad just got his power back yesterday, Tuesday, afternoon and no internet until Friday at the earliest. Crazy since my dad is top network guy at shell oil so probably can’t work from home.

That would drive young folks insane. Literally, not figuratively!! We went without power for a couple of days a while back. The kids didn’t have cell phones either. On the second day it was nothing but stupid arguments between the youngsters and complaining about everything under the sun. Another couple of days and I’m sure they would have felt like they needed emotional counseling and a safe zone with WIFI.
