Bugs ? Bugs ? We don`t want no stinkin` bugs. We want coffee and a bowl cause it`s "wake and bake" time in the OFC. Good morning all, now get with the program.
 
got it yoop. potting the rest of clones today. tilling grow area. and now do my bug spraying now that I'm thinking of them nasty things. Flora mite the entire grow area.
 
Morning O.F.C. !- I hate me some spidermites ! U might win the battle but the minute U think U won the war - they come back - little Bastids !- I'm working on prevention !- Got rosemary growing in each aero box !- just plant some Serrano peppers by the back door for pepper spray !- Pepper Spray may not kill them but it makes me feel better They haven't came back yet !- Got RWS on bug watch ! Boiled a pound off serranos -- reduced the extract by half - I can remove my plants from the box and turn them upside down to spray the underside of the leaf !- Between the mace and rosemary I am at present free of them buggers ! They'll be back and I'll be waiting !
 
Morning OFC. So apparently it's been 50 years for the Grateful Dead. My son and I started with Working Man's Dead, American Beauty, and then Live Europe 72. The radio station I stream from Philly is doing 24 hr non stop Dead. Of course, I have satellite radio and can listen to the Dead station anytime I like but, somehow this is different. Been feeling like a major change in my life is on the verge of happening. Just a weird feeling. For the first time since relocating, I was working and while there were tons of issues going on, I was smiling. All the dental work has helped, but it is really more about my own acceptance. I moved to Cali....because I am a grower. My story is like lots of people before me. I do other things to pay the bills while I grow. Everything I do is centered around this idea. There are things I don't like about my job, and the people I work with. It is only worthwhile to me, because I am a grower.
 
I have the smell of 217C in my room too Umbra.

Thought for sure I had won the war but nay, barely won the battle.

do you use SNS?
I must not be using it right... how many times do you apply over how long a time?

I guess I kill the living ones but I'm not catching ALL the eggs.

:48:

You use it every other day for three times.
 
Good morning peeps.

That is wonderful Umbra. You are a grower. and probably a lot of other stuff. It is good feeling to know your doing what you want or need to do. Good for you.

Put too much cayenne in my lemon water today... HOT
Have a great Friday you guys!

I use mitey wash, 209, and 217C, I rotate them so the mites don't build resistance to 1 pesticide. My son found a handful of ladybugs on the outdoor plants and we put some of them in the tent. I just bought some Steinernema Feltiae nematodes and a case ( 200 ) praying mantis babies.
 
I see turmoil and a purpose and resolution !- -- When the smoke clears - Umbra is a full time pot pharmer! -- and a happy man !!- Really !--seen it in a vision !-- He ain't the only one !- Giggy , Kraven - One day soon your state will need all the pot U can grow - U Ain't gonna have time for no job ! As for me ?-- All they got to do is blow the whistle !-- Just let me grow without threat of jail and I'll rock they world !-- I plan to take it from the pharm - process it and package it for retail sale ! Every investor looking to make a fortune in the weed biz needs a grow master partner ! Not sure that's the route for me but if I brought party favors to such a meeting -- Raw weed for smoking - RSO for edibles - Hash - Hash Oil for dabbling - E-cig liquid made as strong as I deem nessesary from the T.E. or the most potent thing I can lay hands on ! They gonna need a Taxi cause ain't one would be able to drive after Keef happened to them !
 
I pick up daddy longlegs. they are great. if you can get one to take up residence in a plant, he will stay . August first, I order 15000 lady bugs. enough to put some out every day for the rest of the grow season. I love to raise ladybugs. spray the plants with a little water and they come out doing their happy dance. I spray the heck out of the area before planting, and some mity wash while they grow . but all ladybugs and daddy longlegs after that.
 
Remind me to never enter your greenhouse. Spiders? Got the willies just reading about 'em! Got a bazillion of 'em out back in the woods. I'll send 'em to ya if'n you don't mind 'em bein' a bit squashed.:)
 
I'm going old school on bugs !-- My pepper , rosemary , nicotine spray as an under leaf spray - turn my plants upside down and spray the underside of the leaves ! Seems to work well for a very light infestation !- I also use it as a general grow room spray !- spray everything with that Sheet !- My rosemary plant are thriving and should kick in as a repellant !-- Growing hot pepper by the back door as a kind of barrier ! The spidermite want a bite of leaf ?- come get U some of these leaves with dried hotsauce , rosemary and nicotine !-- I put the Voodoo curse on they stanking a** !-- Ain't playing !
 
Can't wait for mid summer !- Should be able to do a side by side comparision of My Widow girls and their daughters fathered by the T.E.- as well The T.E. ! Best gets top billing ! Then bring in Willy and see what it got to offer !- Right now I'm thinking a fine Willy boy on my T.E. would make for something very special ! Like Umbra said one time - let the genetics speak for themselves ! Or like I like to say - seeds don't lie!! U know I don't think Texas gonna be ready for this jelly !
 
Did the long drive to Harborside Collective and the purchasing department is closed for the 4/20 festivities. While there I get a text that 1 of my nephew has the flesh eating bacteria and they are pumping his 3rd round of antibiotics directly into his heart. They're talking about amputating both his arms. Not good.

Wow Umbra, I know the bacteria well....peeps get it here from slipping on oyster beds.....it's very bad. I will keep you and you nephew in my thoughts. I wish I could help somehow.
 
Sorry Umbra !- They got some bad bugs these days !- I'm beginning to see a connection to good - bad days and the stock market !- Was down a couple hundred points last time I saw ! Told U they was building on the lot next door ?-- Came over today to tell me my fence was a foot over on their property and I need to move it ! U want me to move my fence over a foot so U can nail boards to it on your side !- I got a better Idea !!- How about I just tear it down and let U look at the side of my house ! I'm not paying for his fence !- He want a fence he can build one ! I 'll move the 20 feet or so in my back yard for my pups !- Sounds to me like he got a fence problem not me !
