@JimyTheCook got you bro. I’d probably go with the montodoris (because temps and I haven’t used them yet and they seem like they’d be mint as) and persimilis

Never thought id be considering introducing pest to fight pests. Fuk atlesst next grow ill be all over this sorta crap

 

[JimyTheCook]

Absolutely. I’ll go without anything for some runs depending on the time of year.
I won’t even step into my room without a shower n clean clothes first if that gives you any insight to what I’m like.

Theres some nasty bugs out there i dont blame ya for taking the extra steps to keep a clean grow site. Just my bloody luck though iv never heard any one on here mention broad mites theres apart of me hanging onto the idea its not brd mites though

Most guys are running 2-3 different imp to reduce the risk of bugs building a resistance.

I think that’s a bit of overkill unless you’ve been to the local hydro shop.

They aren’t pests. All pests are bugs but not all bugs are pests.

The idea of using multiple sprays is good to mix it up an stop anything building a tolerence..

Since its only affect new growth could i top all the plants on all the parts that are affected or would toppin be to late into the veg stage an be of bad affect to bud production

Hahaha, the local hydro shop...best place to find a bug. I’ll even use a bleach solution to clean the outside of a nute bottle, or basically anything before it gets introduced to my place.

The symptoms are showing at the new growth, doesn’t mean that’s the only part of the plant being effected. Treat the condition not the symptoms

Makes sense ill admit i have no experience or knowlege of this topic

Bleaching bottles is definitely overkill. Only thing that’s stopping is spores and bacteria and those would be airborne anyway

Yep, that’s more of my OCD.
I have a seperate lung room n run carbon on all my intakes.

I top like a mother fucker most times cos I like the bush shape I get when I do ..but I do my last top at least 4 weeks before stretch starts so the plant settles into stretch not stressing.
If your not in stretch u would be fine if in stretch u might want to think about it a bit more...
Bertha here was topped last at least 6 weeks ago and is going thru stretch now
Another reason I top is because with bigger plants I like to scrog outdoors

Yea i was thinkin it would stress the plant being this late into the season. The plants that are showing symptons are definetly slower growin then the rest of them wich would make sense now that ive came acrros the possible cause of the problem..
Im abit the same although i didn get around to try any scroggin methods but i do like the growth an shape of a plant that has been topped multiple times.. although a 10ft tree left to do its own thing is still impressive.

Very nice hybrid for energy first hour or two and creativeness and a nice couch lock movie mode afterwards

Very nice, Super Skunk n White Widow linage. I like those types of buzz’s too. We used to run a strain called “Old Yella” back late 70’s early 80’s similar. A warm buzzy, euphoric, creative wave followed by sit on the back deck listening to tunes, drawing straws on who was going to have to get up to change the record

Since joining here and finding the Aussie thread, n you guys blessed to be out doors got me all reminiscing on days past. Only got the one ol hippy mate now still doing his thing out in the hills. Rarely get to see him these days. Think he still plants out “old yella” sometimes n selectively seeds it.
