Wonder if germination temps or some other issues are fucking with your male/female ratio?
I'm thinking it's something man I've never had this many males before. I let the seeds soak in a cup of water over night, then the next day I plant them weather they have cracked or not. Then place them under my light. Within 3 days they have usually all sprouted. I just got this t5 fixture this year and it puts off quite a bit more heat than my last. Maybe it's too warm for them?1462286374530.jpg

Dude Im pumped for you. Thats awesome right there! Got a bag of mixed chilis, wasabi lettuce, & some runner beans I'm going to plant tomorrow. Got to get some more supplies before I plant anymore herb, but I have 16 fems and 2 males flowering now so that should last a minute (or 2). I managed to burn he fuck out of last batch of seeds so not gonna plant anymore until I get some more promix & lava rock. Next up on deck though is Bodhi Buddhas Hand & Synergy. Get my fkn phone back tomorrow so will get some pics up then.
I love chilis man!! Few more weeks and I'll be able to start planting my garden. I'm going to try and grow head lettuce this year. Everyone grows the leaf varieties but never the head.

Yea I tried to pm him too. I need to know more about how the Botaniguard worked. @Aeroknow
Sorry dude. I just turned messaging back on. I figured if you wanted to get ahold of me, we already had a convo going.
But yeah, I did 30ml/gal, shits fucking bank! I did that 5 days apart. 3 times, on a crop I had to finish. I hit all plants in veg with the nasty stuff, merit75.
No more flyers, everything new shows no signs of RA's at all anymore.
Hit me up.

How well was the kill rate on the plants in flower . Did it eliminate them or only control them ?

As far as I know it eliminated them. Again, hard to tell 100% on plants grown in pots of dirt or soil:-( but i know i'm clean.
Everyone up here where i'm at who had RA's used it like I did, and it worked for them too.
I just still find it way too expensive to elliminate at all stages of growth. But what do you do if in flower? Botanigard for the win;-)

I also experimented with some other shit on veg plants.
Acephate97, burned the shit out of the plants. I no likey that stuff. Merrit75 @5ml/10gal plants don't even trip. Even freshly rooted cuts:-)

Thanks man . It is expensive . We caught them on a grow about 3 weeks in flower in promix . Good to hear the kill rate with botaniguard works .
I always used Bayer at home in vegg as a preventative.

Yeah, i've used bayer tree and shrub in the past when I noticed them in veg, from dirty club cuts. It works. But it's weak ass shit, with a bunch of fillers/nutes along with it. Merit75 is 75%imid :hump:

78 degrees is what Subcool swears by. I did 80 degrees for my Maui Wowie because it is hot on Maui. It seemed to work very well.

Is there any difference between the Botanigard WP22 and the Botanigard ES besides the first one being a wettable powder? Thank you in advance.
