Plant has nice flowers but they all are covered in dead aphids. I tried washing it off with the baking soda lemon juice method but didn’t remove close to all of them. Do I have to throw the buds out or is there another way to cleanse?
Update: it is clearly continuing to flower which is great! I am going out of town tomorrow for 3 nights. Should I cover the whole time or leave uncovered? I don’t want to have it revert but I also don’t want to give it shock from light deprivation. Thoughts?
I’ve been covering with sheets and using chairs on the sides as support to not put all the weight on the plant, not the prettiest setup but seems to be doing the trick.
Yeah the big one I chopped down because I couldn’t cover it at night and was getting out of control. The smaller one is about half the size and age but I was able to cover the last week and it seems to be doing the trick to get it to flower. Guessing it’ll be about 2/3- 3/4 the size that big one...
Let’s go!! I will be out of town from Friday to Monday. Should I leave the plant covered that entire time to make sure it doesn’t revert to veg? Or will it be fine uncovered for three nights?
Ok thanks, also the big plant is almost 16 weeks so double the age. When plants don’t get the right light do they just stay in veg forever? What would happen if inside you never lowered the light to 12/12 would it die in the veg state or live forever?
The 8 week plant is a third of the size so a lot easier to cover. If I scrap big plant and start covering that one now when will I know if it’s working?
Yeah box will be too big at this point it’s like a tree lol. It was from a friend. The other auto seeds I got direct have had no issue. Just sucks to scrap after all this time. I’ll either leave it a few weeks and see if it changes on in its own or bring it inside at nights and tough out the...
If I don’t cover would they eventually flower or is it possible that they never flower because of the lighting? I don’t really want to cover every night and there will be a few weekends I am away.
I don’t have a big box I can use currently. I can get one but the plant with container is well over 6 feet and I don’t know if there’s room for me to place it over top of it because of the balcony cieling being just a few feet above plant.
Also the younger one will be 8 weeks tomorrow and that one isn’t showing any signs either. Could it be because I started them after solstice so they are confused? Should I cover 8 week old as well or is it to young? So happy I started an auto I knew at same time that’s 8 weeks now producing...
