Hey alottaball you think my girls should be lst'ed at all? Maybe if you go over tws house both you guys can stop by and help me with the lst. I never done it before or any of this super cropping or anything.
You should def. lst your plants if you can. Or super crop. I started supercropping last year and it was thourghly easier than fuckin w. tying a bunch of string. Here's a instruction vid from youtube

The outside plants I just tyed em over a long time ago.:leaf: They keep busting my cheap string and duct tape.:leaf: I need to get some cage wire to in circle them as they are starting to close in on each other again and I think we're gonna get heavy.:weed:

where ? show me ? link ? :leaf: I'm still trying to understand all the bug and N defficances.:leaf: Not that BHS has bugs. I sprayed some Spinosad inside and out tonight. Preventave maintenance inside but I had some catipillars outside with maybe some other type of vermon !:-o This was the second spray and everything looks good. It was never bad yet but don't want it to get that way.:clap: I do see a bad ass bug/moth that comes around in the evening. They are kinda long and skinny with a fat evil looking head and a white triangle spot towards the end of their body.. They like to land on the stem. When you go to squash them they just spin around on the stem super fast. If you fuk with them enough they will fly away. I see them in pairs most of the time. The closest thing I could fit them too was the cabbage moth. :?:
 
what leaf damage? no pests that i am aware of. just fucking grass hoppers. i am keeping a diligent eye out for those bastards. i caught a slut on the stem of the alien og but i got it before it started feasting. what an ass snails and slugs are. grrrr

snails and slugs are a easy kill. water the grass or garden in the eve and then put some poison/food out and count your kills in the morn!


:shock:
 
ya but i have a dog and few cats i dont want to put poison out.i might need to tho.i go out at 10pm and again at 1am before bed to check and kill the bugs
 
i topped 5 of the 8 plants i have. did a fim on one of those toppings too. i need neem oil soon. if i spray it on the plant will it keep grass hoppers off.

no wonder my dogs act kinda funny .


Seriously. I haven't had any problems. I use like a sawdust garden powder stuff in the concentrated areas. It only takes one or two nights and then maybe a refreasher a week later and there isn't many more left after that. I swear I've counted 50-100 snails dead on a few ocassions each year. Each year it seems to be less and less. Them damn things eat a lot but don't get very far. lol

i use nylon string. it doesnt fray when it gets wet. but it does fray on the ends when youre handling it. tie it in a loop, then zip tie the loop to the branch. much easier to move later, just cut the zip tie and use a new one

maybe u can make a cage for the poison? make a dome out of fencing big enough to let snails through. stake it to the ground so the animals dont just move it. that is if youre using the poison theyre attracted to...

i dont think so. im not sure what keeps grasshoppers away. id like to know though because i had one on my plants a few weeks ago. if i start seein em around, i might have to start murdering them
 
i am going to get some screen from home depot and going to make a 4x4 cage of window screen. that should let the light through and keep them out.

The white spotted leaf damage where I put the arrow.. just asking because it looks like mite damage to me but .. could be a hundred other things I suppose.. just curious

 
well the the plants haven't been eaten AT all. so i found a spot thats too far for grasshoppers, they much rather make my raspberry plant holly and both with some skunk smelling plant across the yard. hah.

i noticed all the tops i cut off last night have already grown some ontop. amazing. and the purple kush seed in the smart pot is finally green!! and the leaves aren't crispy anymore! way to go flora duo nutes!

also on another note, 3 are 3 ears of corn growing on 2 plants that i have pollinated by hand.so i will have home grown corn in a few weeks :)
