If this is inappropriate, I will delete. My condolences to Useful’s family. Losing a loved one is one of life’s most difficult experiences. My experience After four years of growing outdoors, I’ve concluded that it’s way more work than I thought it would be and have decided not to grow...

This has to be the worst year for bud worms for me! Just found six more damaged areas this afternoon and this morning, I didn’t see any bad spots! Maybe the morning sun messes with my eyes, I don’t know. Fuck! And, I’m not seeing any dead or alive cats and I’m not any eggs either. So...

I use the EZ Straw Seeding Mulch with Tack and I just rip the bag open and spread it out. I’m growing outdoors in the ground no-till method. I’ve found this straw mulch to be way more seed free than others I have tried.

Found a few more brown spots today and a couple live caterpillars. Used Sir Napsalot tweezers and peroxide to treat the spots and tortured the cats. I sprayed BT yesterday morning and on 10/4/22. I don’t know if it’s killing those bastards or not, but I think it is cause the damage seems to...

I think you’ll like. Here’s pics from this morning. (I had some pest issues so the leaves are a little dingy.). It’s been 77 days since pistols appeared. Trichomes we’re mostly still clear on day 75 and the buds are still adding girth.

I’ve got one of the Pineapple Thai x CD growing outdoors that’s almost ready to harvest and it looks and smells amazing, but the Chocolate Covered Strawberry is even more better (lol). It’s sweet sticky goodness.

Appreciate the info! Do you mix BTK with Spinosad and then spray or are you spraying them separately at different times?

Yes, I’ve been spraying them with BT since they started flowering, but there were some greater than one week gaps in spraying. I also have them under 30% shade cloth, but it’s not 100% coverage so the moths still find their way in and lay eggs. BT spraying will be on point to I’m done harvesting.

Thank you Sir! I just found a dead worm near a small brown spot. Gonna try this now.

I’m finding those little bastards everywhere the last few days, mostly on my herbs, but a few on buds too. Pulled up two mint plants and they were loaded with caterpillars! Tell me more about how your using peroxide on those small brown spots.

Good to know! I was spraying Neem Oil during veg and then BT after they started flowering. Once I became aware of the Thrip and White Fly infestations, I added Eliminator to the arsenal.

I’m about to apply a third round of Doctor Zymes Eliminator to control White Flys and Thrips. (I also hung yellow and blue sticky cards.). Prior to using Eliminator, I was spraying BT every 7-10 days to control bud worms. I’m likely gonna need to spray Eliminator weekly until everything is...

First off, thanks to everyone who spotted the infestation in my grow and provided info. First time I’ve had this problem and I mistakenly thought the discoloration was residue from foliar spraying and recent very light and short rain showers. This grow is prolly screwed, but I’m looking for...

Please give me more details. I know one looks sickly for sure, but other than a bunch of itty bitty white things I’ve seen every year and a couple of bud worms, I have not seen anything else in the canopy, or I’ve been blind to them. I’ve been spraying with BT periodically, having spray two...

I thought it was just my grow that was weird this year! I’m in Central California Bako area and my six plants all started flowering at different times between 7/23 and 8/23 and that’s never happened before. This is the first time for the strains I’m growing this year, but a 30 day difference...

Can anybody here tell me what the flowering times are for Chocolate Covered Strawberries and Pineapple Thai x Chocolate Diesel? Growing outside in ground in Central Valley California. Thanks

This is a Pineapple Thai x Chocolate Diesel plant that started pre-flower on 7/23/22 so she’s been in flower for 51 days. Starting see a lot of amber trichomes and I’m beginning to wonder if she’s ready to harvest. I don’t know what the flowering time is for this strain, but 51 days seems...

Here’s an picture update on the BOO x Panama Reds. These are at 20 weeks from when I germinated them. So far so good and the previous issue of the yellowing leaves I posted about several weeks ago went away after the were transplanted outside in the ground.

Here are a few more pics of the BOO x Panama Red plants. (The seeds were freebies provided by @bostonbob that were included in one of Useful’s auctions.) These haven’t been topped, but there’s already significant shoot growth,especially on BPR2.

Your comment about looking like sunburn just hit me like a ton of bricks! I keep them in a foil roasting pan to make it easier to move them around, including setting them outdoors to get used to real sunlight. Sun reflecting off the foil could certainly cause sunburn.
