I'm not trying to be a dick, but what products listed have you "never even heard of"?
I hate to see you losing some of your crop, but this IS farming. Some loss will occur. It's inevitable and might be a hard pill to swallow for some.
All those products/elements listed will give you a bandage and help you hobble along to harvest, but next year implementing those things ahead of time will be that "ounce of prevention" that brings in your "pounds of cured" or something like that.
But seriously, things like Serenade, Actinovate, Silica, magnesium, etc. are all things that I've found are best used as part of a regular maintenance and plant health maintenance paradigm. In other words, when I use them regularly as a preventative they work a whole lot better as opposed to trying to throw the kitchen sink at a plant in an effort to save it. Your results may differ. Best wishes and happy harvest.
I meant Ive never used them under those names. I've just used Cal-Mag+, Pro-Tekt, and FoxFarm Nutrients products, indoors, which has always brought the small plants through harvest easily.
Im saying that full season outdoors is a whole nother beast and much different from indoor growing.
I learned that I need to learn how to grow all over again this year.
A bunch of new things Ive never seen or used before.
Ive never went into the hydro store and asked for Sea Kelp, Potassium Silicate, Micronized Calciu...etc etc. Im saying this is my first time with big plants and using anything other than Cal-Mag+ is new to me. I have alot to learn about BIG plants outdoors, and Ive learned alot this year.
The garden is super lush with fatty colas everywhere, I just noticed and cut out a couple buds with rot, is all.
Thats why Im asking questions. I learned that when mold thinks that a plants electrical charge is dead, because it doesnt have enough stored energy at night, it will attack that plant matter.
Next year I will be there with all this stuff and BT sprays by Sept 1st.
Im also using all new soil next year. Ide rather have a strong soil that has left over nutrients, than be short on nutrients 4 weeks before harvest. All the plants that got a strong FFOF soil and chunky perlite blend are healthy with no rot at all.
The buds are huge and dense too.

I've got a shit ton of work making 1st and 2nd cuts penciled in between those dates, but not because I follow any "biodynamical calendar".
Maybe those hippies are right, after all....
I've had a lot of success using the biodynamic calender, fwiw
Those 2 close moons sure didn't hurt anything this summer. Holy cow did they drive growth. I find myself paying more attention these days
Nice milkyjoe, Thats awesome

Kick ass pono! Your girls look to be in tip top shape. Love your trellising technique. Those girls are standing stout.
Next level plants Pono, way to represent. Looks like your gopher problems didn't effect you this season?

seriously? Your gonna start instigating more drama the same morning this dam thread gets re-opened......??
Pono - Did you replant your dep area? I can see plants in the front but not the back? Could you have, or was your harvest from deps too late? BTW, that over head drip line doesn't even make it half way up half those plants, lol.
