Installed an air cooled DE gavita...OMG!!!!!! makes 1000 HPS look like a flashlight, lol. Removed 2 HPS for the 1 DE. Game changer, seriously. I think I can run 4 DE instead of 8 HPS and grow better bud. Question is whether the mini split can keep everything cool enough.

So Umbra U plan to shake the trichs out with your handy dry ice sonic hash machine then put the rosin technique on the hash ?-- I might have to chase some down and take her for a test drive !-- It took awhile studying that Simply "C" to see the trick to production !-- It has a 90 run time on a one ounce load !-- Take a long time to run !--Then they mention in the small print that most THC will be extracted in the first 15 minutes !-- So run it for 15 minutes and reload ?

Yes that is exactly the plan. Low tech perhaps, but effective. The new light requires safety eye wear to go in there. Way too bright.

Morning O.F.C. !-- 5:25 --Rosie the robot vacuum decided to clean the living room !-- Everything worked the way it should but I ain't happy !-- Rosie came on and the pack set off the intruder alarm !-- They had it treed about the time I cleared the bed and attacked the door !-- Beat the hell out of the door and wall !-- I'm up and wide awake might as well wake and bake !-- I was surprised I still got some moves for and old guy !-- Oh!--I'm gonna need an ice pack for that !

Never a dull moment at your house keef.

Kraven, your mom loves you forever.

Interesting rosin and light Umbra...very cool.

Our new puppy comes tomorrow... I live in thirp hell. So the puppy will be a nice distraction.

 

[Kraven]

Kraven, your mom loves you forever.

Thank you Rose.

Whelp, my fears realized this am, I spotted a small bit of PM on the whole grow. I will get a few flowers through till harvest in a week or two with a little love and some Sodium Bicarb in soapy water spray. Veg has already been destroyed....not gonna spray them with Eagle 20, just gonna start fresh. Once they get it, they got it and it only takes the right stressors and bam you got it in flower where your choices are limited.

It's never more than a pencil eraser sized spot, but it is PM none the less...I hate PM....Hurricane damage keeps rolling in....need my meds...refuse to support the cartels.

Kraven is gonna be one sick puppy for a bit till things get sorted out. Once everything is out of the grow space it will get a good dose of bleach and H202, and then a final misting of Eagle 20...give that a few days to clear and then will reload and start fresh.

Rinse and repeat has been the theme this summer.....gonna try again to get myself up and running again. Peace

10/1 vinegar and water is what I have used works as good as anything else .sorry Kraven.
Sorry Rosebud. Hoped your bugs were gone.

 

[Keef]

This day has been a total waste !-- My neck is stiff and sore !--Front been moving thru and my face ain't happy !--
We bug free right now and my sympathy goes out to those fighting the bug wars !--The bugs will be back !--There is no winning the war and never have them again !-- If U grow cannabis and ain't had bugs --U just haven't had them yet !

 

[Kraven]

And, of course, let's not forget that horrific day in our history 15 years ago............ seemed so surreal as it played out on the TV all those years ago-- like time just stood still. Heartbreaking indeed!

 

[giggy]

[Rosebud]

Great news giggy. I am happy for you.

DD, i have been thinking of you daily. You are such a beautiful soul and I love you. Your kindness and hard work for Rex was perfect. He knew you loved him. Peace to you and your sister.


Kraven, i know the one year anniversary of your mom's death is so hard. If you listen can you hear her? I heard my mom for a long time, i don't anymore, but I know what she would say in any situation so that helps me. I hope you have that. It won't always be this hard. You have had way too much death in your young life. Please know we care about you.

MY PUPPY COMES TODAY!!!!!!

 

[Keef]

Happy for U Rose !-- The pets they love us unconditionally! --
The memories are a little much for me today !-- I been crying some !-- I be around !--
Sorry !!

 

[Keef]

Need to get my act together !-- I have a cousin I grew up with that's coming for a visit this afternoon !-- Timing might not be perfect but it will be good to see him again !--His state will be voting on an mmj bill and he wants a refresher course on growing !-- Last time he was at one of my grows was in the mid 70's !
Things have changed a lot since then ! -- I don't know how D.D. is still going !-- Men are not the strongest of the sexes! -- I'm pretty much done and she's trying to take care of me !--
