What's in Roddy's Garden Today??

[powerplanter]

It's just been another one of those weeks, PP, you'd think I'd be getting used to it by now I'm upbeat today, a bit feisty even :rofl:


I hear ya man, and know exactly what you mean. The last few years have been some of my worst all time. It's hard to get used to being kicked in the teeth so often. Sounds like your hangin in there though. Plants look great. Keep it up and I'll check back. PEACE!!

Not much you can do late in flower but hold on to your butt and try to get through it.. You can use Dutch Masters Gold and Penetrator to keep it at bay late in flower, but you gotta spray buds 2x a week and about 3 days til harvest and it's godawful expensive and you have to apply a ton of it. There's also Green(something? Guys, help me out here..) that's late safe, will do the same as DMs, but burns hairs.. Then there is milk/baking soda/lemon juice (and all the other ph changing homemade solutions out there) that don't work for beans. Sulpher burners that are awful and, of course, myriads of folk telling you your atmosphere control sucks (which, once you got pm, counts for crap and does nothing but make you sick of talking to people, lol)


Look up Eagle20EW and buy a bottle. Here's the pros and cons...

Pro: You will never (EVER) have to deal with pm of any kind ever again.
Con: It's systemic.
Pro: Only use in veg and it will never show up in your bud at harvest.
Con: If I remember right, it's like $60 something..
Pro: 1 spray, 1 kill, and you use very, very little product at all..
Con: you have to buy a big bottle that you will never, ever even dent unless you share with everyone.
Pro: Your friends will love you because they get theirs for free...
Con: Hmm....
Pro: You will never (EVER) have to deal with pm again.

Now you are the guy that tells other people what their options are when it comes to fighting pm

THANKS PP and a HUGE THANKS NV

I am very sick, started a couple days ago and is getting worse instead of better. Disoriented/dizzy, high fever, projectile vomiting and severe pain in the right side at wasitline. This old man may need to go to the hospital again before day's end....

myriads of folk telling you your atmosphere control sucks Yeah, it's amazing what 6" of standing water will do for a basement...and the rest of the house! OUCH!!

 

[lordhighlama]

yikes roddy,, sorry to hear of your conditions. Hope you start to make a recovery soon!

 

[HemperFi]

Damn, Roddy, you are truly being tested -- hang in there my friend.

 

[Roddy]

Hey LDL and Hemper...

Looks like the trip is on hold, and Christmas...unless there's a miracle in the works. I'll not hold my breath lol Plants are being well tended though, they're working on the issues and reporting good results so far!! I'll know more when I can actually get up and see them!

 

[ozzydiodude]

Get yourself well first then worry about plants. You can grow more plants but you cant grow anotrher you.

 

[Roddy]

going to hosp

 

[powerplanter]

God's speed Roddy.

 

[ozzydiodude]

Best wishes hope it's nothing a little nursing:hubba: and TLC with that care of.

 

[powerplanter]

Sounds a lot like a kidney stone.

 

[Roddy]

I'm BACK and healthy again....was indeed the kidney stone, it somehow moved from the kidney all the way down to the bladder on the trip to the hospital!! At the hospital, they fixed my nausea and pain and said I was good to go!! WHEW....didn't think I was coming back out until after Christmas!!

Not doing anything foolish, though, taking it super slow right now. I've had a lot of problems lately, I'm not in the mood for any more! Amazing how something as small as a BB could make that big a problem! And, it's not out of me yet, it's somewhere in the bladder....told that it's no problem from there on!

THANKS for the kind words, my friends!!!!!

 

[powerplanter]

It's good to hear everything is ok. My wife's cousin had a kidney stone, said it hurt like heck.

 

[HemperFi]

Glad to hear you are okay, Roddy. Just kick back and stay stoned until next year -- a new beginning

Peace

 

[ozzydiodude]

Good to here but I'll tell you from experencing it. pissing out the stone is no joy ride. You will now have a idea of what women go thru in giving birth.

 

[lordhighlama]

never had a kidney stone roddy, but glad your in the home stretch and feeling better for now. As hemper said just get really stoned and kick back till the new year.

 

[bho_expertz]

There are some teas that you can take that helps to dissolve the stones. Good luck :aok:

 

[Ruffy]

sorry to hear the bad luck bro! but they come in waves and next yr will be no issues. drink a tonne of water and piss that bad boy out. go easy on peanuts & coffee those were behind the 2 times i had a kydney stone. i didnt piss the first 1 out & it got bigger. make sure ur high. lol good luck bud

Hey BHO :ciao:

Yes, lemon juice is good, too...if you can handle lemon juice!! I'm drinking a lot of liquids and hoping all will be easy street!!

Hey LHL!! :ciao:

Here's hoping you never experience a stone, my friend!!

Hey Ruffy :ciao:

Chocolate, meats in higher portions and a lot of other stuff I tend to like are on the list...ouch!!

And yes, plenty of :48: for me the rest of this year, and extra celebration on New Year's Eve...our room's booked at AZ Charlie's! Although we could have booked on strip for a good deal, I've been there, done that and just plain hate the strip traffic!! Charlie's, although a "local" casino, is clean and well appointed, has an AWESOME ham breakfast special, and is centrally located to all our planned activities!! Had I booked on strip, it would have been the Strat Tower mainly because of the caches on top and the fee to get up there if not a guest!!

I'm climbing a mountain if it kills me :rofl: Even if it's just good ol' Turtlehead!!

I hope everyone's Christmas is memorable and the new year brings a better one than the old! GREEN New Year's to all!!

 

[Roddy]

OK, here's what I decided....please let me know if it's a mistake:

I harvested the two closest to done (one actually is, one is a day or two away tops anyway), have looked them over closely and have not seen PM on them anywhere. Safe to dry and cure...right????

There are 3 showing obvious PM on leaves, they are in around 5 weeks of bud...tossing them (shame, 2 are beautiful Pineapple Express with the ideal cone buds)...or would I be alright trying to clean them daily?? How do you see the PM in/on the buds?

There are several others ranging from 5 weeks on down to just starting budding, none showing any signs of PM...toss them all, or try keeping clean and hoping? Or should I do the dreaded sulpher burn?

All upstairs will from now on be treated with eagle20 before going to bud, we'll nip this problem right off!!

Please, anyone with knowledge, let me know what to do before vacation (leave 27th if all goes well) and it'll get done!!
