Mass/RI/Con Growers here!

[Ottoman]

I can just see the little umpa lumpas running out of that hung dry haze room throwing joints to all the people you give tours too chaco. Thats probably who you make trim up all those haze monsters you grew out too.

So the blueberries are finishing up but I hate to admit it I think they're slow to finish because broad mites have found their way into the garden I am pretty sure. Much thanks to melty for being an honest heads up dude and Vado for being just an alert proactive grower because I think I caught them extremely earlier and they aren't gonna affect that last of this runs harvest, worse case it seems like I'll have to let the plants go another week to fill out a bit more, seems like the plants growth lost some steam....

I attacked my Veg/mother rooms yesterday with Avid, as much as I hate to spray chemicals on my plants it's the only way I will get rid of them and their doesn't even seem to be much info on the internet of broad/cyclamen mites and cannabis, so I ain't screwing around with the organics til I see them gone.

 

[guest121295]

I did the same thing, as soon as I saw Melty's situation, I dropped the bombs...I run spinosad, wait a week then floramite and continue going back and forth, hoping to kill everything...Does anybody know where they came from? GSC?? Cali grow trailer hicks!! Just kidding, I was one of those once...Otto if I had 2 Oompa Loompas I'd be bankrolling, I do however have this friend who knows some Ukrainian girls who love to smoke haze, zee skunk es ok, in Ukraine we have this haze...ah I'd never let them near my place, a guy has to have some dream while he/we plod away, Otto I can see you're workin', we're all working.I'd do 12 hrs codfishing on a gillnetter, its easier but doesn't include the rockstar status, no thinking involved unless you're the Cpt!

 

[Ottoman]

Chaco, I blame the whole thing on myself I was very naive to think I wouldn't get bugs in my garden again after I kicked those spider mites a few years back. I didn't clean a new cut into the my garden and yes the, GSC. I am cool with the situation because it just part of the gig, and I try to look at everything in a positive light. This is just a big eye opener of how I should really be more on top of my mother room with proper prevention. I have to admit I hadn't even sprayed my mom's down in some time with even some organic stuff, that really piss poor of me. I am now dedicated to getting rid of these things once they're are gone I swear for the rest of my growing days I will be having a bug prevention month, where I will spray my mom's down at least once a month rotating 3 different kinds of organic preventatives: Azamax, Ed Rosenthal's Zero Tolerance, and Organicide. I will also make sure of it that any plants that I put into flowering will be sprayed with one of the 3 products a few days before. I am always learning as a grower and far from perfect...Chaco it's time like this where I wish I was working on that gillnetter with you and not trying to keep up with the rockstar status, I like not thinking.

 

[guest121295]

Yes, its part of the gig.I've seen a bunch of tough guys go down in flames after one PM attack, or one cop visit.Tacoma was over and I was showing him my isolation room, its about as big as a shower stall , 3x3ft and its next to my flower rooms.Before anything goes in, I blast it heavily.You're right though, one slip in vigilance and you're done.Good luck bro, I'm going to check out that Avid...for sure.

 

[MeltingPOT]

Yeah, it's not fun when ya get a kick in the pants! I agree Otto, Chaco, it comes down to us growing into stronger, smarter growers who NEVER take anything for granted and continually do our homework. I was pretty comfy there for a while, kinda let my veg "take care of itself", ya know??? Yeah, it got taken care of alright!

Funny thing is, that MOST issues I've had over the past few years began by taking in ladies because of my need to see what all the fuss was about. All the while I have great cuts and a vault full of seed that I rarely crack into...Why? Because I'm a dipshit, apparently! Look at Lillypants over there cranking out the Lucifer Ya think I was smart enough to crack any of those KNOWING they were the chronic OG? Nope. Too busy catching PM and Bugs and all that lovely shit while trying out the spiffy cuts that usually get tossed anyway! I'll be sticking with the local stuff from now on.

VADO, Otto, I'm glad you guys know what you're dealing with and that you got to it early enough to manage. The shit is devastating, so take care of business and fight em' tough!

I think a couple of us here can relate to that. I've been thinking about this very same thing lately, time to start putting a serious dent in the vault.

Good luck wiping out the bugs, fellas.

 

[Ottoman]

Melty, amen brother, I've been kicked and punch before but always manage to pick myself up and fight another day. I really can't thank you enough you saved my ass big time with: time, $, buds, and a few migraines. I can see myself popping a whole bunch of seeds come end of summer...Also I was gonna snap a pic of the green crack buds I just finished they came out fire, but yours def has more bag appeal, nice job!

rasp, get popping brotha! and thanks for the luck...

So not all is so bad my golden goat just finished up today around days 73-75 somewhere in there. She was absolutely grown to perfection this run the mites didn't get anywhere near her. Its been a while since my jar was filled up with the Goat so I am pretty excited I'll be filling up the living room with massive bongs rips of that and the sister for a while.
Here a few of the branches I trimmed up today, I'll toss up some dried shot in a week or so, should be some pretty shiny stuff...

Also bitter sweet news is that I took 35 cuts off my GSC about a week ago and every single one rooted already! I am gonna give them an avid dunk, was gonna do it today but the goat ate up too much time.

 

[cocktail frank]

floramite won't kill broad mites.
i'm also on the boat thinking the GSC brought them broads to the east coast!
thk god i got the jug of avid on hand.
it's all water under the bridge at this point.
soaked the whole spot down w/ avid to kill them fuckers myself!
looking dope in here.

 

[loyalty7]

Yeah my cookies gave me some broad mites, avid and alternating mighty wash and sns, they seem to be gone...I'm dunking every clone for now on with avid...

Whip one mite per nibble

 

[TB Gardens]

Lol craven


Damn I haven't stopped in for a few days, y'all are getting raped by bugs! Fewf, good thing I didn't pick up the gsc yet.. Guess I'm waiting til one of y'all get her good and clean

I got a damn fungus gnat problem winding down finally.. Adopted my buddies garden probably 1-2 months ago & they came fully loaded with gnats. Got bad for a week or so, but stayed heavy on the spinosad, azatrol, & sns & things are finally managable... First place I really found them was in the rock wool trays, damn they took out nearly 90% of the rooting trays... Luckily my ecsd, candy chem, and cocaine OG moms are absurdly big with hundreds upon hundreds of cuttings for the taking

...speaking of that... Once I get some more power into the basement I'm gunna fire up another 5x10 tent & flower out those moms..... Chaco trees here I come!

 

[Guest3498]

You got it twisted tb, the bugs are getting raped by us! Avid, forbid, conserve sc, and no pest strips. NOBODY takes this fat kid's cookies away!!

These things are shifty little critters, though. If you didn't have a microscope you couldn't even tell anything was wrong with the garden...

Vado I would never get in the way of your cookies or those strip club wings! LOL....

 

[Guest3498]

lol after smoking a well-grown batch tiphat waiting for this bitch to flower is painful.

I feel like this kid:

 

[Bi0hazard]

^ So close... but yet out of reach... I still got some headstash of GSC luckily - the smell and taste gets better everyday it's out of this world.

Wreaks like 100% Gingerbread / Dark Shortbread cookies with a thin mint after taste.

PS: I think that girl is eating her Guilty Conscience on her right shoulder - except she represents them as cookies in her head.

 

[guest121295]

Oh my goodnesss....my pits are sweating thinking about those bugs!

 

[187020]

Floppy or sloppy, we'll send the broads back to hell !! A gsc with an STD? The joint ain't always wrapped sometimes gotta get your sac dipped homies

 

[TB Gardens]

Hahaha


How do u guys like the gsc? Anyone gunna be keeping her around? My boy is supposed to be coming back from Cali with a nice bouquet ;-) sage n sour cut he's been talking up, and I've sourced a real deal Cali-o cut so I gotta head up ottos way sometime and grab that amongst a few other elites. Haven't seen any Cali-o grows in so long I'm excited to work with her.

nice score TB!!!

 

[Ottoman]

TB, nice job on scoring some new genetics...I smoked sage-n-sour a few years back and I remember it being really top notch stuff, never ended up scoring a pack of seeds like I told myself tho. Hope to see ya post some nice pics in the near future...Also whats cali-o I've never heard of it before?

Got 35 cookies rooted and dunked as of yesterday, I am pleasantly surprised to see that the avid doesn't really do any damage to the plants at all, I was expecting some burning and what not but everything seems kosher. I hope to be flowering all these ladies in a about 3-4 weeks, I am dying for the thin mint after taste again...
