Hey V12, I hadnt seen that before, gave me a good laugh so cheers :-) bet they had a right good time making that. Well, I had to start another thread! ..... little acorns and all that :-) Lets see where it goes. https://www.rollitup.org/cfl-growing/356825-return-12-12-seed-small.html#post4501755

Hello, having had to make the tough decision to close down my grow and remove all plants due to spider mite infestation I am back up and running with a new grow :-) I fought the mites long and hard but finally decided that the only way to be 100% rid of them was to break the perpetual grow I had...

Nice idea tamjam :-) Well, for me its got to be a Kush strain. There are some great ones out there. Now one of the very best I have tried is the 'Kushberry' from DNA, grown by a Kush enthusiast mate and it was beautiful :-) but they come in at around £8 per seed feminised !!! "This is the...

Hi bohicular, no problem at all posting here but I'm just letting this thread run itself down and don't look in often. I like the look of that set up, the hood is really good. Have you got things sorted yet? Gumballs right about intakes, when mine came on in the night it would fill the room with...

Hi V12, You could well be right about that, I have always felt that its better to keep dedicated mothers and take cuts from the vigorous tops, but since losing mine I have been taking them the lowest shoots as they are the slowest to show those pre-flowers and often just 2 to 3" tall. But what...

Come on mate, one last trip down that ladder for pics? :-) I bet it must be a funny sight to watch you doing that, like a Big Bang with legs or something! I'm itching to see the harvest shots when the time comes.

yep, great to see the case gradually filling up again :-) Good luck with those 2 cuts V12, just keep em warm as you can and they will root for sure.

Looking great mate :-) I love those Trainwreck buds :-)

Cheers bigman, once shes done I'm going back to some old methods again Hey V12, I was looking back through some of my old threads here under a previous username! I remembered the sphagnum moss idea you gave me that gave really good results to begin with so I might give it another go...

Hi tamjam :-) I used neem in the past but like V12 says it just don't kill them once established. Its a very good preventative though and stinks to high heaven! I went on to try SMC as advertised as suffocating them, but in my experience at least it again does not kill the mites and I've been...

Cheers all, no big deal, I still got a bit to smoke and I still have 'Widdecombe' finishing off :-) I'll let her go 9 weeks if I can keep those mites down. She's 6 weeks now and my aggressive treatment of the leaf has caused damage but I'm keeping the buds clean so far. Shes mutant Snow White...

I have finally decided to close down this thread, its time to admit defeat to the mite issue that has plagued me since I went perpetual. I need to break the cycle and the only way is to shut this down and begin again with everything from scratch. That means everything from lighting to soil and...

STUNNING GROW! I don't need to say any more than that mate :-)

Hi there V12 :-) I'll look into that idea, thanks. For my flowering plants I've been simply blasting them with a mister and plain water, all over the buds as well top and bottom of the leaf. it destroys any webbing and does no harm to the buds so long as they get to dry out in the air, bearing...

Hi 'boy' just give that clone more time, 2 weeks is not that bad, can take longer. What I like to do is to give a VERY gentle tug after around 10 to 14 days and if I feel any resistance then I know she's rooting. I also like to root clones in clear plastic cups placed inside another non see...

Steam could well be worth a try gumball :-) mites do not like high humidity as you say. I'm going to do a search again and see if I can find anything like those foggers over here, but I've never been able to find them so far.

Thanks for posting that Gumball, I do indeed still have my mite issue and I'm always looking round for solutions. problem seems to be that many of these things that work such as the Hot Shot strips and the foggers I cant find in the UK! For the time being I'm just living with them as best I can...

V12, were those 'fem' seeds that turned out to be males from P&M? if so did they offer to replace them or give any explanation? That's bad because by the time you find out all grow schedules go out the window. I'd be justifiably very angry about that. Looking forward, I am visualising already...

I agree 100% with that tamjam, having grown in the loft for 3 years through winter and summer myself in the past. The high temps they can handle but the cold REALLY stunts them. I remember you saying that your mrs was not keen on you using a heater up there before but look at those little oil...

Hi bigman :-) The BB sounds a good one, and much is made of the fact that its available on prescription from the Dutch pharmacies as a true medical strain. I'm looking forward to getting them into flower. "Big Bang genetics are of Swiss sativa and Swiss indica. Greenhouse Big Bang feminized...
