I gotcha... I like the sound of that stuff, and the name lol. Do you object to the Hot Shot No Pest Strips? They have served me well, although I stopped replacing them eventually and the mites have returned. I can't provide any feedback on the SNS-209, but the idea of low concentrations of organic systemic additives sounds great to me. You just add it to your watering solution and the active ingredient is rosemeric acid. They do recommend that you stop using 2 weeks before harvest though. I didn't know anything about RA until I read the wiki page, it sounds like a little gem!
From what I've read those pest strips are pretty nasty and not to be used in a living space while occupied,my scrog is in a cabinet in my main living space.SNS sounds interesting and I requested free samples from them.I'm going to order some nuke em for my next grow and give it a try as a preventative.The predators will be here Friday,I'll post back details of the battle.

And here we go for round two, four days later after ripping up the male AOS. Here's to hoping it's a girl.

That southern sun is certainly a luxury. Look what you can do. Those will gourmet rare quality buds, I'm sure. I supplement indoor, underground in a bunker (just to grow a small plant... WTF is wrong with this country?) with UV-b in hopes of picking up a teeny bit more of what the sun dumps on us daily.
What exact light if you don't mind telling do you use for UV-b? A pet store lizard & snake light? Thanks.

Im still slightly confused on how often you bind the branches down. And which ones? Every new branch that appears, do you bond it? If so for how long? thanks for the help

start from the beginning of the thread...it is pretty clear....i am in the process of documenting the process again, and plan to post some pics....one thing that i have been noticing is folks are over-bonding trying to emulate the first few pages of the thread....we don't need to bond so severely.....i will show you guys a slightly less brutal way.....stay tuned.:peace:

Interested to see what you have cookin. I know the main reason I got a little rough was because I thought the plant was getting bushy and I thought it needed some more space between the colas for airflow and light exposure. Im gonna let up on them some to try to utilize that center. I'm sure by the end of this round I'll finally have the proccess down. Compared to last round I'm in a whole different league now and there's only room to keep getting better.

A reptile lamp, incandescent, not fluorescent. I have it on a timer for 15-30 minute bursts a few times a day, centered around "noon."

....so here is the deal, this will be the last go (pics and documentation) of the ML process by me in this thread...these are the pictures that will ultimately be in my book...so you Nerds are getting a front row view.....if you have any critiques/criticism, or if the pics are not clear enough, let me know...as you guys are my pre-editors.....but i am quite happy with the "book" pics so far....i am still dialing in my studio lights for the larger plant pics, but i will get that worked out this week.......

Nugbuckets dont you just love the cooler temps of winter makes controlling temps that much easier. Im gonna be looking like you here shortly starting the new round. Do you use the T5s to veg the whole way through or just to get them started. I like my t5s because of the low power bill cost but ive noticed they dont grow near as fast than under the 1000 mh but thats fine sometimes i need them to go a little slower as there waiting there turn to make it into the back room.
