i hope not, no one deserves that.
its all good
my biggest fear is these bastards stealing my weedmites.jpg

i just found some on a male plant i had going under a light, took them out side and sprayed everthing

funny how the male plant has its own stench, even tho theres not much high, the bugs sure wanted it

do you guys recon if you grow a male plant next to another tent full of girls, that the bugs would be attracted/prefer the male plant first as the pollen acts as an attractant to the bugs

then you could just remove the male and the infestation before it finds your girl room

dry it in the sun away from grow room bugs die, harvest pollen etc

assuming your not going to cross pollinate, by accident, or your doing a seed run anyway, just talking about
tricking the bugs

i just noticed they left my girls in favor of my male, that's all
since then i been checking high n low in my flower room, cant see them at all....yet

i think i got them all, just as my girls in the next tent were finishing, which is when i normally get them in there they attracted my male, which i wasnt looking after much

In ag they use bait plants as part of I.P.M.
Some weed strains and individuals are more susceptible to insects and other pathogens than others

If bugs are attracted to a male you don't want to be using it to make seeds
it was a Satori male from Mandala, it was smelly allright, and got to about 3-4 feet
and er yeah i was planning on useing it to pollinate with bugs n all
they dead

Satori is an interesting line, not too many pure(ish) Nepalese lines going round and you can find some crazy strong cerebral high Phenos.
It's not ideal but if you're only making seed for yourself or friends you could make some seeds with it and see how they turn out

allready did ,, Satori X Skunk X Big bud about a month or so before i found the mites i pollinated Skunkxbigbud with it, just as a back up in case my order didnt make it,

i mean i know it not a real backcrossed strain, but i was running low on any kinda seed recently

imagine how hard it would be to keep mites out of your grow if every house grew.....
Nah stuff that. Hard enough to keep the aphids,gnats an the other usual priks away. Although been seein few earwigs around the plants im sure there havin a good ol chew on the leaves aswell but at the same time i think they feed on the small insects

The last time i ordered seeds was 2013, they stopped sproutingin the last year or so the last few id saved(in the freezer), the skunkxbigbud was a freebee seed not sure

i saved one pineapple express it didnt make it , i liked growing that one ,, and they were microscopic sized seeds
