Still hanging in there too. This Grandaddy purp has been pretty resistant to bud rot it seems. Thinking one more day before the big storm hits the west coast

Hey got a granddaddy purp trying to finish. Going as long as I can at least 10 more days. Had to chop a bud that I thought was rot but I found 4 baby caterpillars so sprayed spinosad yesterday. I’m in southern Oregon. Peace out

Yesterday despite pretty much bluebird weather picked off the first bud rot of the season. It seems early this year. Anyway did a pretty good defoliation to improve air flow and that’s when I noticed tons of dead ants live ants and aphids. Not into spraying anything on flowers so just plan on a...

So when the aphids along with their ant buddies, showed up on this plant at about 4 weeks into flower, I hosed off the leaves as best I could and then I put diatomaceous earth around the stalk of the plant. This really cut down the amount of ants, not going to eliminate them entirely but helps...

I am using spinosad and here is a link to a write up on it . https://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/newsletters/hortupdate/hortupdate_archives/2004/mar04/Spinosad.html this stuff works !my error was not starting it soon enough. I also read on here somewhere a guy contacted Monterey garden and asked...

I had the same thing happen to my plant but I caused it myself! After transplant to main pot outdoors I figured I’d tie it down . It had been topped like 3 weeks prior so I wasnt paying attention and it split right where yours did , lesson learned.plant is huge now no problem lol

Yea I think they are just pistils , very close to harvest so at this point it is what it is. Thanks man

Thanks BK your grows are always killer dude. I have some minimal amber on lower bud sites so would you go ahead and chop or wait a few more days.

Hello fellow growers this grandaddy purp is almost nine weeks and just getting ph’d water for the last week. i don’t think these yellow things are nanners but just wanted an opinion…

Wow nice bud I grew a couple of og kush but the buds did not really harden up , super leafy maybe too much nitrogen in flower I don’t know.

all set for the rain! Og Kush from clones not big buds but pretty good frost on them! Southern Oregon good luck with your harvest growers !

Thanks again,I will try the warm water with just the potassium, it probably was not dissolved completely. Yesterday I plucked one of those pychotic white moths that make catapillers right off the plant. It was either dead or close to it so the stuff is working !

Hey the plants are fine and I just wanted to share what my experience was man! The soap is an emulsion right? I wonder if I just needed a tad more, like the potassium was not staying in solution. I was shaking the sprayer quite a bit though! It definitely killed the aphids off ! Thanks

Well I got the basic recipe from jimmy p in this thread. I’m no expert like a lot of you guys
