Deep woods is only like 40% or something like that. I mostly use off or whatever they have at the store. The 100% didn't seem to work any better and was teenie and alot more expensive. My buddy uses those fan type ones with good results. The skiters always bite me in the back when bent over filling watering cans. He wears them on the back collar and waist. He says they work good if your not walking through the woods but rather tending to the patch in a general area.

I think it just depends on the bottle size. I've seen a small pump bottle like that repel that's 100%, but the aerosols I do believe are 40-50%. I never noticed much difference between them either and always opted for bigger aerosols. The fans don't sound like a bad idea. My dad always swore by garlic pills, but that seems to works better for some people than others, and I always seemed to be one of the others. lol

If anyone has a problem with 5-gallon buckets, and need a cheap, if not free alternative, go to a restaurant that fries a lot of food, ask one of the cooks to hold a few of the jugs the oil comes in. They are light weight, can hold at least 5 gallons, and have a lid that screws on. I have a couple I plan on rolling out next summer.

Monster!!!!!!!!!

Started the season with Spinosad and burnt a few leaves, though the stuff works great it's only for bugs. I'm now using safer 3 in 1

Maybe when I get some time bro. In a nutshell it's about reading the plants, dialing in your nutes, location is key, and I prefer to haul in my own mix rather than ammend the native soil. Big holes = big plants. You take out what you put in, it's hard work. Proper preperation is a must.

Not really sure at this point. I only have 1 strain that I've grown outside before so we'll see, So far so good though.

im so fuckin envious of those plants dude! they look amazing. did you ever get a quick shot of the Purple Power? not a big deal, just wondering

question about moth balls...do you need to reapply as needed throught the season?

I re-apply about 4 or 5 times through out the season. It's very cheap so why not.

Question about Moth balls, How do you tell which one is male?? lol Happy 4th to ya!

They're all males! They've got balls. Females don't and are called simply moths.

NeL-
I'm in N.E. also. First real grow and outside.
Keeping to a low profile I'm pinching the tops to make it stay low and bushy. I'm learning,,, but still don't know anything. Can I continue the pinch until a few weeks before flowering light (12/12)? I believe that will be around late Sept. by the charts.
Am I hurting anything serious this way?
Planting was sudden and spur of the moment with fostered hand-me-downs from a guy. Suposedly "killer bag seed" (meaning who knows what to expect ).

Also-
Late sept. to start flowering? Then at least 2 mos. to mature?
That would put us into Thanksgiving time for a predicted ripe harvest and I know we'll have a killing frost by then.
Obviously there is something wrong with the way I'm thinking on this. But, search as I am I can't figure out what is wrong with my thinking.
I'm sure they must be ready to harvest before November's frost. What am I planning wrongly here?????

Seems the more I learn,,,, the less I know!

They'll start flowering about a month before true 12/12 light. Sometime between the summer solistice, a week or so ago, and natural 12/12 light in late September. So you're looking at more like late August to early September.

Indicas are usually done by about Halloween and pure Sativas more towards Thanksgiving or Christmas.

Usually flower in aug som time. The problem you have is un known genetics. For all you know it could be a sativa dominant and actually go till november. I'm not much for pinching or topping. I'd just bend them over and spread out the canopy as much as possable.

YIKES! We've had snow end of Oct. and it's not that unusual.
Aug / Sept is good,,, real good
(Note to self; next year = auto flower)

Pulling over and staking sounds good too. Think I'll search and see if there's a wrong way and go for it (staking, not wrong way ) on a couple.

Thanks guys.

if you had strains that finished by late september you'd be set.
