    Home depot stocks Mosquito Bits and Dunks (BTI) Crush a dunk to powder and sprinkle a pinch or 2 under each plant. Last a month so repeat as needed. Only kills the Larva so use a sticky hanging trap to nab the adults. Water less.

    Buds come out smelling like grass, but the grind smells amazing

    You ARE drying to fast and likely to deep. 777 is the ideal drying conditions. 7 days at 70 degrees and 70% humidity. I don't have it and never will so I've learned how to work around the high temp and low humidity that are my local conditions. Only take down what you can trim before it wilts...

    Please Help Powdery Mildew Taking over all my plants Outdoor

    PM and Caterpillars are the only things I have to fight. Since I have to apply BT weekly for the caterpillars once flower starts in early Aug I know the PM isn't far behind and start with the high PH water for the PM. I have to stay on top of both weekly applications as even 1 missed week can...

    Please Help Powdery Mildew Taking over all my plants Outdoor

    Simple high PH (9) water is enough to disrupt the cell wall and kill the visible part of the powdery mildew infection. 1 tablespoon of Potassium Bicarbonate or Sodium Bicarbonate (household baking soda) to 1 gallon of water. Drench spray once a week seeding to week of harvest. It will control...

    General Edible Making Discussion

    I've tried making fresh several times as well as shaking just dried for dry ice Hash. It's not my ideal stone. Jumpy, edge of my seat feeling. I need more of a mellow, less choppy ride. I've had 13 years to fine tune my Hash capsules to suit my personal taste and everybody I share them with rave...

    How much thc can coconut/lecithin hold?

    The usual suspect in stomach pain issues is in fact the actual plant material for some reason. Straining usually clears up the trouble but not always. You're on the right path with experimenting with the various possible mixes.

    Shade for seedlings?

    Seedlings are quite capable of all day sunlight. Think about it.... What they can't take is root damage. That small cup will get hot, and the roots burn and the plant dies and people think OMG the sun killed the leaves. NOPE ! Not what happened. First off your plants are suffering from solo cup...

    When can I put my plant outside and avoid flowering? (14 hours of daylight?)

    14.5 is the trigger point. At 14 they flower and at 15 they veg. In actual practice after 12 years of starting inside and moving to outside in spring I've made virtually every mistake possible and fought early flower over and over and...... Southern California here at latitude 33 so adjust as...

    Observation about effects of uncured flowers on grumpy old men

    It's even more pronounced in edibles. I've learned to harvest late and a 60-day minimum cure puts the "Mellow" back in my cannabis. Most of what's sold nowadays is pushed out the door as fast as they can to get the next crop in. It's all about the $$$ now. Back in the day the Mexican dirt weed...

    Photo period question re; flowering light time.

    I've always considered 14.5 as the trigger point for 95% of photoperiods. They veg at 15 and flower at 14. I'm at latitude 33 and in working practice only June and July have long enough days to hold cannabis in veg. You can start seeds a month sooner as they are not light aware for the first 30...

    New Member To The Forum And Wanted To Say Hello.

    Most all of us started with some degree of grower's black thumb and mine was blacker then most and I seemed to excel at killing plants more than actually growing them at first. Ask most anything you want / need. Welcome aboard.

    Can You Take Clones from Flowering Plants?

    Current set of off-season plants under 24-0. I've run 24-0 for well over 10 years. Hundreds of plants if I had to count. The best clones will come from veg stage plants. Every day further in flower from the flip means less rooting hormone present in the plant and a lower chance it will strike...

    Found just a few seeds

    Feminized seeds are more likely to self-pollenate then standard seed and kicking out 5 or 10 seeds is not unusual and in fact can save a strain if the clone fails. A few seeds are quite OK. More than a few is where you have issues and think about tossing that strain. 5 seeds is OK 50 and up...

    Veg lighting - strip LED vs. fluorescent

    I've used old school 4 foot T5 high output for years to veg. Also known as high bay lights. If you need the Heat, you can still find the old school T5HO in standard florescent. LED will save some coin and run much cooler.. I was running veg in an old garden shed and the heat was welcome in the...
