Good morning all! Looking in my scope today, checking trichs, and that was it, I've had it, these feckin gnats gotta go! I went checking things out and found a common gardeners video that suggested sand on top of the pots, along with other steps, because they enjoy moist, organic material and the sand keeps them from getting to it. Then I found a Cannabis gardeners video where he actually does it and it seemed to work real well. Anyway, here's the video. I'm thinking of going ahead with this but if anyone knows of any drawbacks I'd love to hear them.

Cheers

I have used sand, as well as DST to combat the gnats...

Right! Very good then. Sand it is. Thanks bill!

can you water through the sand? I dont doubt you can, it will just filter through slowly
Why coffee, do gnats die in it from the acidity?

for the bugs with soft exoskleton,i like to use a water/alcohol mix.
i let all plants/soil go dry,i use a sprayer/mister,to get the top 2" of soil moist,i then spray the plants
and grow room.

found some pics of my first grow..........

when she was growing.....

i think she went 100 plus days..and still needed more time.

is that chemdog or a different dog? Maybe chemdog is a cross of dog and??





Ok so I have a problem...
as I have said b4 I have 8 trees in my shed that are done.
They all started to reveg (from light leaking in?)and had to get pulled.
I have a 4x4 tent only to dry. I planned on drying a few ata time while the others soaked more sun. Well that aint gonna happen.
So the 4 that didnt make the 1st cut are sitting in the tent in the dark to avoid progressive revegging.
The question is how long can they sit in the dark waiting to get chopped? Today is day 4

i once left an og#18 x skunk that was done,sitting off to the side of my grow room,for a week-n-a-half..lol
bone dry,the buds still had some moistness to them,but it was ready to smoke at chop time,but the trich was like sand
real fragile.

104* and up at times in my shed. I have been watering them regular still though

I keep mine about 14" away maybe but I'll have to double check that tomorrow when the lights come on. I have also ran them closer but feel like I loose that even footprint and have a "bright spot" directly under the light... So if mine are farther away then 14 inches its just because I like the spread at that spot. Iv done plenty of reading on it and in the end just threw it out the window and went with what looked nice and even without being so far away that im loosing lumens. Just my 2 cents, youl notice allot of us do things differently but were never trying to jam our practices down other peoples throats, just sharing info and showin off nothing is written in stone and every situation is unique I love das 600.

My hps supposedly throw out 95k lumens. I try to keep them about a foot above my plants which if I remember correctly there is hardly any lumen loss. At two feet away I think the top of the canopy is getting something like 50k lumens. I have a chart in jorge cervantes medical bible for different wattages and distances. I also keep mine not so close to improve the spread of the light. Too close and I think the effectiveness of the footprint is reduced. Just my opinion.

I do look at trichs, but I tend to go with the overall look of the plant more, bud shape can give away a lot, receding hairs are classic (yup, happens to plants as well as people) the plant is giving up at this stage imo.

I used to religiously check the trichs, now, not so religiously. Like you dst, I go with the overall look of the plant. If I'm not familiar with the strain I will check the trichs occasionally.

indecline said:

Just wondering where you guys check the trichs? I snip a small frosty tip of leaf from the top bud. and one from one of the lower buds.
do you guys check the actual bud or leaf like me?

Click to expand...

Check them in several places for an accurate reading.

indecline said:

most of my grows are done in similar conditions, even up to 88 throughout and some strains dont really mind in my opinion. humidity is the killer. had quite a few rotten buds come harvest time because its been killer humid in there. but if its under 50 i dont care.

Click to expand...

Indecline, I must most humbly disagree. To me, heat is the killer of our hobby. Heat will do all kinds of nasty things to your babies. It might not outright kill them but it most assuredly stunt the performance of the plant. Combine heat and humidity and that is a real problem if not an outright killer, unless of course you're growing an almost pure sativa. Nothing worse than to have your labor of love killed off with bud mold.

Sour Cream, mmmmmm.

I have a Barney's Farm Morning Glory going. She just ended week eight of flowering. This is a strain I've never grown, checked the trichs this morning, all clear. An amazing producer. I supercropped the main stem and then tied it down and added a few lst lines. This plant is about a foot or so tall, about two feet wide and has some amazing buds on her. Real dense and heavy. When it's time to chop her, I'm going to try to keep it whole to see what it looks like without leaves and bud only.

got to get rid of one of my gal,to make room for her sisters..

well chopped down one she looked ready to me thrichs were cloudy awating four more and this was the smaller one hope for a good dry wieght

Power Skunk and Sour Og day 39

I was going to comment on those awesome DOG nuggz wish I could find the pix but they look just like my SFVOGK that I grew out which I will add was the strongest smoke I ever smoked since the real nycd from way back in the day. Same leaf pattern same almost pine coned shaped buds that u could throw thru a window. Three nugg eights. And way to easy to trim. Thanks for those pix. I know that Dog is the shit. Weird too cause my sfvogk also grew not so par stem shoots that just wanted to fall down due to the wieght of the nuggz. Awesome.

ok guys getting kinda worried about my air quality,,,,,,, ima at 78 degrees and 57 % humidity yesterday it was 40 now its 57 is this going to ruin my buds what shoul i do to get it down

Found a visitor in my garden yesterday



Bluets Enallagma, Coenagarian species
Identifying Features: Long and slender bodies, wings fold along the body at rest, blue with patterns of stripes on the abdomen, eyes widely separated.

Bluets are damselflies and differ from dragonflies in that their eyes are wide apart and they hold their wings along their body when at rest. Males are brightly colored, females typically are brown or other earth tones. The Tule Bluet shown at left is a common Bluet, also similar with striped abdomens are the Vivid Dancer, Boreal Bluet, Tiaga Bluet and Northern Bluet. Each kind favors certain kinds of habitats although it is possible to find more than one species in the same place.

Bluets are often found low to the ground around grassy areas, or around vegetation in the vicinity of water. Some move considerable distance away from the pond they hatched from. They are predatory and eat small flying insects, especially gnats and mosquitoes. Most Bluets have a short adult life span lasting only a couple of weeks.

thats nice shades of blue on the thing,everything looks "weed"related to me know-a-daysthat make a nice glass pipe......

Looking good DST , which out of those phenos would you keep ? Got some Dogs #2 the other day this is a different pheno from the one i popped , a friend of mine got one of the seeds to work with. Smokes nice it smells slighty like the fisrt one but not as strong a mate thought it smelled like cat piss another said lemons ... I got a 3 seeds out about a 1/2 oz got a bit left so hoping to find some more to store away . Its worth having but the other ones like a 5* this is more 3* .
I've got some of the Dogs#1 in some soil right now looking like Genuitys but smaller bud sizes and more buds, it looks wierd , cant take snaps of them for various reasons..
Heres some shots of the Dog#2 about to be blazed and my meager seed collection .. Always looking to add to the collection..
Relocating my hydro today due to a few problems ,so should have a few new flower pics soon..

Whodat i like that cig thing you got there aint seen nothing like that, ive done that many times by hand though when theres been no rizzla about that thing would of saved me a whole lot of time.
Some nice plants up in here to many to mention and page moves so fast ... keep it coming DGD..
