One of my professors walked up to my car while I was burning last semester and she didn't miss a beat. Just kept talking while I blew out my hit. Same lady the does one of the classes I'm taking now. I love being able to be that comfortable. She always tells people "if you ever have the chance to get dirt from a pot farmer...do it. They put magic in there" hahaha. I knew she was cool from then on out.

I'm friends with a local professor of micro biology. I let her in my yard earlier this year and she loved it. She was especially interested in the teas. It's cool being able to talk to about these things as I'm sure they don't get much interest in day to day.

I found out tonight that we will get to make our own mycorrhizal fungi in class this year specially from the strains that will thrive in our particular climate and soil. I'm so stoked. I'm curious if it's going to be a process I already know of or something more scientific.
This is awesome. I'll enroll if we've something like that here.

There are some damn cool classes out there. Last semester we did aquaponics training and comparison grows between raised beds, greenhouse in containers, and two types of aquaponic set ups for various crops.

Next semester I want to take the IPM class and maybe an ag business class.

My Girl is a biologist and she's always telling me to go to school and get a botany degree. I really should consider doing this.

I got out and sprayed again this morning but this time with spinosad. Most of the season I'd been spraying with pyrethrin but now switched to non oil based sprays for flower. Trying to get a few regular sprayings in before they get too far into budding. They seem to be looking pretty good so far. The Hudson fogger blasts deep into the canopy. I need to get out there and do some pruning around the bottom and middles again.

What's everyone else using for pests?

I steep lemon balm, lavender, oregano, basil, thyme, lemon grass, sage, borage, and habaneros in water for three hours, strain, and spray on my plants. The bugs hate it. Mind you I don't get bug worms here.

Sounds like great stuff! I did essential oils and herbs last year but still ended up battling mites at the end. But yours sounds like a pretty badass recipe.
