    Finally did our first harvest! Did we ruin it?

    There are a lot of factors that can cause the buds to not being dense. For a commercial harvest that needs to be trimmed timely it is not viable but for your personal consumption it is ok.

    Milk to treat powdery mildew

    YEs i used it outdoors. I am not using it anymore because i am using a silica additive that is working great. If i have a problem i usually wash it down with monopotassium phosphate mpk but this happens only when i dont have ample bioavailable silica in my medium. However i had very good results...

    Plant sudden collspse?

    She is dead it is like the roots were not there anymore. The plants can be individually separated from the system. I think that the roots dry to the point of no return when it is very hot and the plant is growing buds at their peak because it happens at the same time period in flowering. I allow...

    Plant sudden collspse?

    It is flooded ebb and flow style. The water is reaching the roots. If the roots are dead then they cannot sustain such a big plant. It could be that i am flooding very high that i rotted the crown of the plant. It happens. I will check that later when its completely dead. Meanwhile im trying to...

    Plant sudden collspse?

    It is flooded 4 times during the day in 50 litre pots. If it was not sufficient they should bounce back once you water which is not the case. Its like the roots are not uptaking water anymore

    Plant sudden collspse?

    It could be that it drowns in hot water due toblong flood cycle and the roots sort of boil. However that plant is the most shaded. It happened before and it sucks. It looks like the bud growth cannot be supported by the root size so it collapses at that same period at peak bud bulking

    Plant sudden collspse?

    what can make a plant collapse suddenly? I have 12 other plants that are ok only then a plant just collapses and I have a flood and drain system in hot weather. It is not bud rot. could it be the heat? The plant sort of almost dies and drops most of its leaves as if she is downsizing her...

    I captured cucumeris mites and some are still alive 5 days later. I am trying to breed them and make them populate. Most importantly i know how to capture them. Once i make them multiply i can start making release sachets and hang them around my garden. They are able to eat small mites and eggs...

    I cannot handle the heat of covering up or having to reach all sides of leaves. My grow is not that small and everything is automated it feels primitive to have to do that. I need the beneficials' army. Fumigating foliar feeding or spinosad is another story. It is fun and easy to do and you dont...

    Solar panels and a hybrid inverter can offset the excess use and could also save money.

    Just when i would think that i was going crazy while considering breeding my own beneficial mites, i found this lady who grows all sorts of plants and who has 2 videos a year apart on how she breeds her own cucumeris it is quite a find. This is her newer improved method I already bought the...

    Dr zymes needs to contact the pest to work. This solves nothing. Tedious work and not sure to work. for all you in the US you can buy sachets of predatory mites.

    The practice of spraying pesticides is not the way to go. It is too much effort not like simple foliar feeding you have to cover all surfaces and sides and you have to do it in summer mornings not at night to prevent pm and covering up makes it even hotter to cover my area is not easy especially...

    I am not believing my eyes today after the third application of abamectin aka avid the mites are still alive. I think that because it is widely used in all my area that the mites are tolerant to it. I have no other explanation. After the first two attempts i thought the bottle is expired i went...

    Island Of Misfits

    AFter the current events i want to make a statement to you American friends. I noticed that while the US is very advanced in many fields the progress of the political system is not keeping up and it is being used as the weak point the achilles heel to ruin your country. I come from a 3rd world...

    Caterpillars

    Spinosad is an awesome weapon against caterpillars. It removed severe infestations with a single application it is amazing with a pleasant soil smell. God bless Paul Stammets i think it was the name of the guy who isolated it first.
