Hey cooter, it's not letting me reply with quote, but I went to koolau the other day. I couldn't find anything there with BT in it. I got some safer brand insect soap. It doesn't work for moth worms. I'm goin to home depot and lowes today to pick some bug zappers and hopefully some got damn worm killer. Found another one last night, but only on one little plant so far.
Grrr, visited my gt girls today, they are almost 2 weeks flowering, and I find a little worm in the top bud of my favorite plant! Oh man u shoulda seen me digging through that premature bud looking for that sucker, and I found him! Tiny little guy, glad I got him when I did, he woulda grown nice and big.
He looked happy as hell slithering out of my plant when I found him, glad he got to live the good short life, now he will be fertilizer.
Hey if you guys got any recomendations for bud worms i'm open to suggestion, would just go with safers, but I don't wanna spray soap on them all the time, just a one time application kid of thing, that BT stuff im thinking 'bout.
Anyway 2 more GT's confirmed girls, that 5/6!!! just one more, the "suspect" male, but the fact that all the others have shown flowers so far and this one hasnt.. has me thinking that if it was a male, it would have shown already?
must be a late male... or hell yes 6/6 females baby!
glad I did get atleast 5 females cus, started my other 6 gt's, all 6 popped, all 6 growing happy and healthy as seedlings, I come back a week later and only 2 are left!!! I didn't use very good netting techniques this time... the bugs must have slipped through.
Dr greenhorn and I both hate this mysterious "seedling muncher" if you start 10 seedling in the forest without protection you will be lucky to get 2 out of it.
I've also got 6 100% sativa landrace genetics going including guatemala, purple haze thai, green haze thai, double thai and oldtimers haze (I hope I get an OTH, smoke reports are amazing)
all 12 sativas popped, but 6 got eaten by the damned bugs!!!!
Gonna go ahead and recommend ACE seeds here, never had a seedbank where I got 100% germination from over 2 dozen seeds.
now i'm gonna rag on them... My first 12 pack of "tropical mix" seeds I only got 3/12 germ rate, obviously old seeds although the site owner denies it. I can't complain they were the "bargain" deal cheapest stuff on the site.
I requested another pack and got one, this time 12/12! hmmm looks like he gave me some fresh ones finally? hahaha
the 3 that did pop were healthy seedlings, however they all got eaten by mysterious mountain bugs.
hey where all the oldtimers at? ie punabud? anyway heres a little excerpt on the legendary thai stick (full link on bottom), yes folks they did smoke better weed than us back then.
Thai stick was the trippiest, most potent weed on the planet. End of story. Anybody who actually tried the real thing will tell you that and they will just laugh at you when you start going on about "White Widow" or some other fancy Dutch strain. The weed coming out of South East Asia at that time was stronger than anything that is around these days. As well as Thai Stick there was also "tripping weed" coming out of Sumatra and Vietnam that .... well you really have to try it to understand. The high is more like an acid trip than a weed experience.
It is generally accepted that the true Thai Stick strain is now extinct. The Mr Asia syndicate was buying all that could be produced and it is said that they were the ones who introduced Pakistani indica genetics to the growers. It was said that real Thai Stick took nine months to grow and mature so they crossed it with hash plant to get two or even three crops per season instead of one. I have no idea if that is true but something certainly did happen that killed Thai Stick stone dead. We started getting inferior sticks that were made up to look like the originals but the weed was different. Less potent, green instead of brown and a totally different taste and effect.
Contrary to popular belief, smokers did not embrace the new Dutch weed or believe it was more potent. That is just good marketing by the Dutch. The hippies complained loud and long about the new "chem schwag" that was replacing their beloved sun ripened golden sweet and spicey strains. We just got sick of complaining in the end.

heh heh the other one is all sensi and has a fruity berry smell to it with a little bit of sweet pine. The seeds are just darkening out of the pods so i'm keeping my fingers crossed she won't mold on me but I kept cuts of this one just incase, or for making X's..I'm excited to grow out my Leda Uno x Kandy Kush, and White Widow x Kandy Kush. After growing out the SSHxCheese I made..still got some of those beans.
