i can't stand dirt under my nails.... i have seriously thaught about going to hydro just to avoid it..... but i think soil is the right way to grow.... so ill just keep a nail brush and some soap on hand, lol just messin with ya Bog. peace out...... keep on growin
The reason I always loved my Bogbubble so much is because even the lowest little bud tastes great and it encrusted with resins. With most strains those lowest buds usually get thrown in to make hash but you might not with any of my bubblegum variations. Once Super Sweet Cindy replaces Sweet Cindy 99 all of my strains will have some of my Bogbubble in them.
Hi BOG, the best spider mite predator is Phytoselius Persimllis....another mite. Sorry, cant help on the where part coz ur across the pond, ..... i am getting the Nematodes I need for the Fungus Gnats(Sciarid fly) from a company called natural born killers....these guys are handy, you go to the garden centre, pick up the card with a picture of the particular pest thats bothering you on it, pay at the door and u get ur bugs in the post 5-7 working days later....Im sure you will have similar set ups in US mate........I have been using some Hypoapsis to get the gnats, but they only do adults..... and the adults dont cause any problems apart from annoying me lol.
hope you find some mate,
Harry
EDIT....Also, Lacewings are really good for aphids as is Encarsia Formosa-Aparasitic wasp that leys an egg in its victim....
I just had a funny thought...BOG, as a Bhuddist, with respect for all living creatures,isit a bit of a paradox-massaccreing mites, lol....hahahaha, just f'kin with u mate.
harry you can cover the tops of your soil with a layer of sand 1/2 or so deep and have some pest strips around
dont keep shit too moist
thatll pretty much take care of fungus gnats
Bogster - is that one plant hanging the above picture? that looks pretty massive....what was the yeild on her? Lookin' good as always brother....keep if BOGGY..peace, 900d
The best way to combat spidermites is to:
Get the MOST potent strongest Chili peppers that you can find, (about 5 or 6)
2 cups of water and blend them all up,
Strain the chili pepper water and spry onto the leaves, and even the buds.
Apply the chili water every couple of days for about a week until the mites are gone.
it works like a charm... Completely organic and does no harm what so ever to the buds or plant.
BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO GET THE CHILI SOLUTION INTO YOUR EYES AND WEAR PLASTIC GLOVES OR COVER YOUR HANDS WHEN APPLYING THE CHILI WATER. OTHERWISE IT WILL BURN YOUR HANDS.
This fantastic spidermite elliminator I got from Wernard from Positronics.
Yeah she was the biggest plant I ever grew indoors. That sour bubble mother clone was finished in a 15 gallon pot and it really did yield 494 grams of cured buddage.
Thanks for the info and as a buddhist killing is no fun. However our bodies automatically kill liviing organisms just as we must within our homes and gardens. Follow your intuitions because its your karma. I decided not killing bugs in the house was bad for my karma because that would force my wife to do all the killing, harming her karma so that would be shitty of me now wouldn't it?
Even buddhists have to kill a skeeter biting him...or a bear.
I feel you must keep this experimentation up in the name of science. lol
You see without you, My good friend would never have the super sour mountain dew slurpy flavor bog bubble pheno clone that just won't quit! and by the way my friend is way newbie but his results look just like the pics!!
My friend is a really cool dude...so I take that into consideration
Peace
I find the seed grown lifestar 1st bx buds to be better as far as smoothness and taste. About the same as the clone for potency and the highs are similar but this bx is more relaxing and great for pain. My teeth are numb from this big joint. BOG
Bog that Lifestar looks amazing man, and those buds there look mighty yummy! And ol by the way, i wanna get my teeth numb as well (lol). Keep up the good work and keep the good buds coming BOG.
