*Disclaimer* This journal is about a legal grow
This is my start of a journal that will follow my adventure through a garden, which was so riddled with disease and pest I can not begin to tell you the horror I felt, as I try to save it from its owner. The owner of this grow is an absolute moron, It took me the first week to talk him out of using 9.5 ph kangen water...yeah. This man has no idea how to grow but that aside here we go.
Room Specs
Clone- two shelves t8 8' two bulbs
Veg 1 beginning 1 250 hps and a bulb I still don't know what it is. Now Same
Veg 2 Beginning 2 Free hanging Hortilux 1000 Metal Halide No reflectors. Now Same
Bloom 3 Free Hanging MH Blue Eye, Which I understand is Dangerous, No reflectors. Now 3 Adjust-a-wings same bulbs. works much better Only room I kinda like.
I'll have room Measurements tomorrow

Quick recap Ive now been in this garden for two months. Here is the list of diseases, PM, Mites, Root Aphids, Fungus Gnats, and not just a little but all over everything the place. I have never seen anything so bad, the water reservoirs had never been changed, not once, in 8 months! Now any good grower would automatically KILL DISINFECT DISINFECT DISINGECT. Well here's where everything gets fucked. My boss tells me I can't do that I have to save this shit. Well my other garden friend, from now on referred to as "Bud", and I set out to save this garden.
We did a pretty good job on most of the rooms. First room was Clone Room which seemed to be a small walk in closet with a framed up clone shelf. There was 90 clones that have mites and needed to be planted. This is the nicest of the problems. Veg 1 Is full of plants that are planted in miracle grow pre-fertilized dirt and are horrible sick. Mites, gnats, and PM are in heaven. The Bloom room was the worst.
The bloom room all the plants are stretched now savable fruits at all. Just covered in pm. Also I need to mention that this room is where those 8 month old reservoirs where that I shutter to even think about now.
I began by cutting down everything I could without the boss throwing a absolute fit. This guy is a little high strung. We the started a Neem treatment recommend by "The Rev" for pm as we felt this was the worst of all the diseases. It works very well though nothing could really save some of those plants. That reciepe is 2oz of neem and 1/2 oz Soap ( I use broners) to 1gal water. Spray hard three days in a row the rain on the girls with fresh water.
This was done to the whole place. After re situating the rooms and makeing more room and hanging lights in a better way we replanted the clones into 2 and 3 gallon grow bags with Fox Farm Ocean forest, and started on the full line of General Organics, Great White, superthrive and we have had moderate success due to the fact without a complete clean of rooms and start over Im still fighting PM in light breakouts as well as I can not seem to get my boss to get me some Merit 75 to at least try to fight the Root aphids. Ok I think thats a good start for you now.
Today I watered all 4 of the 6 DWC buckets the 30(give or take a few I'll count)dirts girls 10 need water I gave an initial water to return this evening to finish the watering. A small outbreak again of pm in veg 1. Neem today. Still no Merit 75.
I'll get pictures for tomorrows post as well as more of an update. This will be the style for the next couple of days until we are all caught up and on the same page.
Wish me luck I'm At war 0_0
