    First time outdoor - Some pictures

    Looking pretty healthy there guy. I grow outdoor in 10 gallon buckets. Not all of us live in a legal state where we can run huge pots. I have to keep mine to a minimum but I did produce some nice 6-7 foot trees this year. Bugs are part & parcel outdoor. Comes with the territory. I always...

    Yeah! It's Bud Worm Season. Pics

    I appreciate the tips on the dynatrap, I'm always looking for another weapon to add to the aresenal. What surrounds your grow? Grass, weeds, brush, neither? I know your a moth killer like I am. In my area they hide in the grass to escape heat, direct sun. I've had good success nuking the grass...

    Yeah! It's Bud Worm Season. Pics

    Few more visual inspections and nothing. Buds are starting to swell and frost. Which means the old eyeball becomes pointless. One final BT mist planned for mid week. I did my tomatoes this year. The worm can penetrate the thin tipe skin easily. Lost 90% of my tomatoes last year. Not a single...

    Will she make it to flower this season?

    Not too late perhaps. I finish in October and I've started seeds, sprout in ground first week of July and made it... Get that thing some sunlight, it's craving it.

    Yeah! It's Bud Worm Season. Pics

    25 minute visual inspection, no other worms found. Now's the time, they like to sneak into a developing flower and have a party at my expense. Another round of BT after Sun down. Lay some more napalm around my patch and carry on the good fight....

    Son of a bitch. Look what I found on my 7 footer. I hate these fucking things and I've been nuking my patch with pestices.

    Waxy, Shiny Leaves --> ?

    Bingo. We have a winner. Too much nitro. The dark color and twisty leaves. Just shy of tips burnt.

    Problem starting and not sure what to do

    What I can tell you is this. The most common problem plants have is the grower. Most common killers; over watering, too many nutrients. Will kill your plants. Every. Single. Time. Stop trying to foliar feed. It's worthless. You burned those leaves and by the look of those speed bumps on them...

    Yeah! It's Bud Worm Season. Pics

    I'm like you. I make mine hot enough though to get me from seedling to end of veg. I add a dash of low mag mid way through veg. Cal mag em' through flower and that's it. I'm really looking forward to see if BT works. No sign of any worms yet but have seen the occasional moth which I'm...

    Yeah! It's Bud Worm Season. Pics

    Never heard of it. Since its a trap, does it use some sort of pheromones to attract? If so, like the Japanese beetle traps I've heard it can turn your spot into a magnet, attracting more than would naturally exit. If used they say to keep them far enough away from the grow to not lead them to...

    Yeah! It's Bud Worm Season. Pics

    No, it's not too late if the plant is just starting to flower or a few weeks into flower. I believe that's the best time to spray. I'm of the belief that spraying this stuff on fully formed buds is pointless. The worms hang out in the buds near the nodes. I also spray pesticides around my...

    Inner Yellow Leaves 2 weeks into bloom HELP!!

    Agree, the lower older leaves tend to yellow out after the ladies go a little dry.

    Inner Yellow Leaves 2 weeks into bloom HELP!!

    Are those most of the original leaves from veg growth? If so that's fairly natural, maybe not to the extent your seeing though. Any time I use any nutrients I tend to over dilute to play it safe, I can always add more but I can't take away over doing it so I play it safe. Is the new growth...

    My Leaves Need Help!!!

    Those bottom leaves just look like they are getting too much water.

    My Leaves Need Help!!!

    How often are you watering? They don't look all that bad. I'd let them dry out quite a bit, let that soil get nice and dry. Whatever nutrients your throwing at them, I'd stop that all together too.

    Yeah! It's Bud Worm Season. Pics

    I've read a few posts in this extremely long thread, about people spraying BT on fully developed buds. I'm not sure that is a worthwhile endeavor. Worms tend to nestle inside the bud, close to the stem, around the nodes. I'm thinking the best time for application is pre flower, and the first...

    Yeah! It's Bud Worm Season. Pics

    Just wanted to report BT is totally safe for the plants. No impact to foliage or flowering. I'm doing a 2nd treatment tomorrow. Dilute it properly or over dilute to play it safe. Will report back at harvest on, see how good it takes care of worms & what not....

    Yeah! It's Bud Worm Season. Pics

    I appreciate the feedback. Like I said I dont like spraying anything on them. Maybe I'll just leave it at a one time spray. I'm less is more guy on everything. Less water, least amount of nutrients. I can always do more of something if I need to and this approach has never failed. I can even...

    Yeah! It's Bud Worm Season. Pics

    Ain't that something. Did my tomatoes first as a test, I lost a lot of those last year too though. Worms have no issue getting right through the skin.
