Apart from buds being a little smaller than they could have been it turned out fine. Gave up de-thriping last couple of weeks of flower as leaves were falling off anyway and the sand I had in the pots and de spread about and the blue sticky traps helped a lot for sure. Currently drying now ready...
Ok so I’ve had a big smoke and thought about it a little. TLDR: I’m keeping them
The leaves won’t be smoked and I’ll be using iso from now on so it will likely wipe off the denatured alcohol residue anyway so we’re really only talking about absorption.
They have 4/5 weeks left of flowering so...
I had a thrip infestation on a big grow so decided to bite the bullet as it was week 3/4 flower and didn’t want to risk applying powder on the leaves or spray anything so put some DE in the base and decided to use some isopropyl and cotton swab.
Fast forward a week later and I’ve just noticed...
