yea, I eventually got a cutt of a sublime tasting silver haze. loaded with mites.kicked my ass I did that. everything got infected with mites. i dont like spraying shit on em when in flower. Got disgusted and started all over from scratch w/ seedlings.
I found once ya get mites, you cant eliminate them.

Dang looks yummy yummy…I plan on pollinating a couple of branches ofMauwiWowie x CheryBomb assuming out of the 6 seeds i get a nice male lol seems when ever i want males i do not get them.

Yes spidermires are wicked.i always take new acquired plants to the shower,sit them on the ledge and steam bath,then thoroughly rinse on a soft spray setting,then wash in safers soap,and neem oi,l which i need to get more of…Then inspect them 3 or 4 times a day in a seperate area.7 days goood to move if no signs appear.

Insects in flower sucks.I feel ya.

Yes, RQS said 5 to 7 weeks flowering and they worked out to just short of 7.
They went about 3 weeks and a day or two in veg before showing signs of flower.

Here is a link to that grow.

I started with 7G pots but I was thinking they were overkill - so I tried 5G’s.
The plants were happy in the 5G pots not root bound at all. They should do fine in 3 G pots but I expect you will have to feed them.
I originally was using “the original smart pots” (black felt type material) but they stretched and lost shape after 3 grows.
I liked the look of the Rizopots (recycled plastic) at the hydro-store so I used them and I had one unused black felt for that grow.
The darned plants liked the felt pot somewhat better than the Rizopots.

Cool good to know.In 2000 i was mailed 20 seeds of Acapulco Gold that were 25yrs old was able to get 12 of 20 to sprout.From a member on the original OG.Made a root heat system from my shed.Had a 50gal drum with 2 aquarium heaters to keep the water at 90f,buried 200ft of garden house from my shed to my plot with the hose buried a foot in the ground ran it like in floor radiant heat through the plot and back to the drum.And had a submersible pump in the drum that pumped the heated water to through the hose and back to the drum.Grew the satvas in Toronto till 6in of snow fell on them dec 8th.Needed another 4weeks to finish.But still ended up with some killer 12week flowered original Acupoloco Gold bud.
