Man u must have one SOB of a neighbor. Lol. I wouldn’t pay them any mind. Focus on your grow and then you can shove it to there faces.
Well hello my friend my people are from out your way
Liverpool and B’ville
I am east of you about 30 - 40 minutes east of Utica
I have been growing for a bit but learn new stuff all the time
that is what is so great about the community here at OG
members are always willing to help and share what they do and how they do it
They moved in and the wife is a nut case, I do not pay them one minute of thought
or I would walk to their house when they drive out with 5 gallons of gas, a lighter and a hammer
than break out every window in their place and burn it to the ground
being that I have legal baggage from a former life that would not play out well for me
but they have a sale pending
Thanks all for stopping and following along

I try to show it all I have killed more plants them most have grown since
1974 and all things I plan at time do not go so well
here are some very very sad clones that my dear friend the Mites worked at killing for me
here is a list Wi fi 43, Do-si-dos (icmag cut), Banana Punch, Ice Cream Cake, Cake Crasher
Ice Cream Cake (Phinest), GMO (Skunkmasterflex Cut), JMO (Inhouse Genetics) ATG Cut
Hazmat OG (Archive Seedbank), Durban Poison (09 DUTCH PASSION) , Purple Punch
Lemon Cake, 707 Headband,Poison Mimosa, Gorilla Piss, Jellysickle, Banana Breath
they are not real happy at this time, but some freash air, sunshine and some love
god willing they will be fine
all the best

Looks like you are about to have some fun!!
starting to look a bit like a Federal Felony
but as they say “illegal is only a sick bird”
So here we going with a real update being that I am at work getting paid
and not repotting a shit ton of plants
this is going to be a couple of days updated
might as well start here back in February 2020 I thought after much work and much effort
I believed I had won the war, and got a bunch of stuff I wanedt to try
well I was way wrong the bugs came back with a vengeance
I was having a hard time controlling my heat, changed lights more
than likely at the wrong time
tried pest strips and they hurt seedlings I had
and The Spider Mites got stronger and stronger, I wanted to burn my room to the
ground sweep those little fuckers up and take them to the dump
they looked like crap, I just couldn’t get them healthy
I have never had bugs inside, never sprayed with anything
never had the need, keep to plants healthy, keep the environment un bug friendly
and no bugs
I brought a bad plant in and just keep making the bugs happier and happier
a couple of days outside same plants
day and night they got some sun and the Jacks kick in, off to the races
a little nostalgia had this other in the end , single ended true 1000 watt large
envelope MH
so brought in all these great clones and started to kill them with mites
sprayed with every oil under the sun, it controlled them but that was it
any harvest sucked, plants look like crap
but we carry on, put up a 4 foot by 8 foot tent that help a bit
but outside did the trick
starting to see some new growth so I will build four new cloners as mine
are beat after 10 - 15 years
60 - 2.9 gallon pots sitting outside for now
they are a mix of GG#4, Channel+, a blueberry cross of mine and Ganj-Nam Style
so we will see
need to mix up an outside miix, the Pro Miix HP with a third more perlite/vermiculite
drys way too fast outside
all the best and enjoy the day

Right on man also in CNY I’m in the closet though me and the lady are looking for a place now hopefully it will be far far away from everybody can’t wait to be ablē to grow outside yours looking great
My friend I have grown inside,outside, in bedrooms, backrooms,bathrooms
hallway closets, you name it
it for me is about growing the size the place for me matters not
but I will tell you this after growing inside since 2000 til 2020
the very best thing I have ever done for my grow is
“after a 5 year break because of my neighbor”
build a grow room not in my house, I am lucky I have a big garage
22 foot by 44 foot with a 20 foot ceiling so I was able to build a building in a building
working in closets I have had unbalanced load in a washing machine make shit fall
and crush plants. spilled water and made pools out of bedrooms because room
is lined with 6 mil panda film
so before I go back inside to work, I am adding 8 foot by 16 foot to it to double my space
for an 8 foot by 8 foot flower space and 8 foot by 16 foot veg and the left over to clone and
seedlings. also I am going to put in four floor drains as I have destroyed the
floor in spots and put in commercial vinyl tiles
I am in the Canajoharie area
all the best and enjoy the day

OK time to do an update 06/11/2020
here we go first my sad ass mite eaten clones are looking better
now that they are looking better and in a week or two I will cut clones
but it is time to build cloners
picked up some new tubs, air-pump and some stones
mine are beat
many years of use, mix of cuts ( as if I need more )
did I say I have way too many plants
clones
seedlings
more clones and seedlings
for now plants hiding in the weeds
so I have lots of plants
did I say I was building cloners to cut clones?
go figure
all the best
Dequilo
Can you show me how you build your cloner? @dequilo it would be greatly appreciated!! Blessings
I will do a step by step in this thread for you
always glad to try to help a fellow grower
all the best

Man, you may want to check out Sierra Natural Science (SNS) and their NATURAL products for getting on top of that Mite problem. I would think, on the scale you are on, that would be a more efficient and less costly option. I wish you well, Bro. Super jealous of your place. Stay safe. All the best for you and family.
all good now my friend the room is almost empty a single plant is in there
no mites on anything outside or in at this time
so life is getting better, clones are coming back
so I will be cloning soon
once the room has no plants I fog it with a fogger at some point
back in a day I would have just used a Black Leaf 40 nicotine smoke bomb
and the bugs would be gone
all the best

Hey man I’d suggest using some of the water retaining crystals. I’ve done years where i only visit once a month and the rain was enough to get them by. I’m not sure if our rain is similar but it might be close. I’m 42n in the east as well. So might be close. But I haven’t had that many to look after lol. The crystals might help you water less than normal which would mean less trips.
great idea but I am just getting ready to lay out hoses for the season
will be using a Hozon, five gallon pail and a wand
I have been using Humic acid and Silica blast with my Jacks 20-20-20
my plants are looking so much better and putting on new growth
final starting to recover from the mites and grow
only problem is most of these plants were suppose to die
now I have way too many plants, oh well
Channel+ , I have never grown any of these plants outside so it will be
fun to see the difference
I have some unsexed and a few a males
I also have 8 cuts of male I have been saving for awhile to make some beans
stays short, very fat stems, leafs and will stay out of flower at 14/10
more unknowns, I planted and killed so many beans I have no idea what some of these are
some random shots
all the best and it is time to water

@Zion here you go my friend
how to build an easy tubbler/cloner, someone showed me this back
on OG back in 2001
storage tub bought these four for 5.99 they hold a 2 gallons of water
a can of spray, a cordless drill and a 1 1/2 inch hole saw
paint the bottom
paint the top
cut some hole I did 20 sites in these
I have always used cheap air pumps and stone but they do not last
bought a better air pump and some good stone
pump was 35 us dollars and the stones were 2.50 each
need a hole for the air hose
add water and air
1 1/2 rockwool cubes
it the beginning I would PH the water, filter, soak the rockwool in conditioner
not now have not done it in 18 years
pump I am using
I use rootech but have also rooted cuttings with none
GG #4 cuts from outside
in the water
full cloner
under four foot shoplights
six hours later after lights came on at six pm
https://www.opengrow.com/topic/37466-cloners-cloning-and-clones/
on a different site
easy to make, easy to use and all most fool proof results
all the best and be safe

Man your plants look great. Maybe pull those weeds around them. Your plants will love u for it. I know how it feels to try and make them look totally camouflaged. Just my opinion but if someone walks up on them they will see them no matter what. Great job. Happy growing!!
someone walks up on them may indeed see them
but since I have 2 1/2 acres fenced in with locked gates on every entrance
it could be the last thing they ever see
all the best
