That horsetail sounds awesome I'll trim some donkey tail to see if it works the same.



llolol
Im sure it grows around my parts I just gotta find it.
At first I was like "WTF dried horse tails, for real?" haha

 

[Bobotrank]

Hey med, I can see your point. My issue would be in not having a means for knowing the sulfur content of a finished extraction? I know that vaporized sulfur that manages to dissolve in present moisture becomes sulfuric acid so I would worry about concentration, it seems like the unknowns are significant imho.
I'm sure people do worse things to them selves legitimately every day.
my $.02

You, my friend, are a genius. ... and bring up a good point. I'd never really done any research into sulphur burning before this. Seems intense...

Donkey tails would definitely work!

Dude, I bet everything grows in your parts. Warm and high humidity. Sounds like a plants dream.

I'm lagging hard on the subject, but I've dealt with PM a few times. One tip, the PM apparently likes the cold. I thought I was doing good by making it really cold in my closet at night, like the cold would kill or slow the mildew, but I guess I was wrong.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

i would jhave thought it would be the opposite, is PM not a fungi family member, they usually like warm n humid. I hear a light bicarbonate of soda mix works but i've not tried it.

That's what I've gathered in my research too. Low humidity and high temps make an environment that PM supposedly does not like. It may help slow things down but definitely is not a cure in itself. My room has been around 80-85 degrees and the below 40% humidity for a few weeks now, but the PM keeps coming back between Greencure sprays.

 

[jigfresh]

PM is a disease. Once the plants have it they will have it forever. So even though your condtions are better it will show up as long as you keep those plants. At least that's how I understand it.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

damn sounds like VD

 

[Bobotrank]

Supposedly there are ways to keep it fully suppressed, though. I had it on a plant, trimmed off the affected portion of the plant, and then gave it a few waterings of EWC tea. I didn't have another problem after that. And it was in a greenhouse. Full on through flower without a problem.

It does sound like herpes, huh? Immune system drops, affliction rears its head and shows itself. Round and round. Whoa, glad I don't have VD!

 

[whodatnation]

Im glad Iv never gotten PM, or VD
On that note, I took preventative measures this am and last pm by spraying me plants with the home remedy.

 

[Bobotrank]

I copied down that home remedy into me Whodat folder the other day. Gonna keep it around long tyme!

Hey, speaking of your recipes, was wondering if you water every time w/ tea during flower? I seem to remember you saying that about your flower tea, but I'm can't recall for sure. Reason i ask is because I've watered 2x now with a veg tea similar to yours (with exception of the high N guano), and yesterday I started some of the flower tea (with exception of the seabird guano)... My Deadhead is gonna be ready in about a week and a half, and is showing a nice fade. The rest show signs of slowing their fade, but are still fading... just slower (if that even makes sense). My question is, think I can hit them with the flower tea, or should I go just plain water when I water them today?

OG is stacking up nicely, btw... really starting to swell and push out the resin.

Whodat folder? lol. I have a ton of stuff on the desktop, things I save because I need to read them when I get the chance,,, all I end up doing is hopping on riu lol... See its happening now!


The original recipe (where I got it from) says to use it for every watering in flower, but thats with a soil base of FFOF. When I stepped up to SS I knew there was no need to use it with every watering. Iv been applying 1/2 strength brew about every second or third watering, Iv only recently started using full strength, im at 2 weeks 12/12 now.

Both the seabird bird (10-10-2) and the mex bat guano (10-2-1) are high in N. JMO but no real need for teas two weeks before harvest, I like to just let the plant eat itself... Second though, I'll give them some worm tea towards the end.

All that said, Id let the dead head get just water, or a little worm tea, and the rest can get maybe one last does of flower brew.



Edit:

Looking at this, "I" would hit all of them with one last blast of full strength brew This is purely just my opinion though,,, Im sure other peeps have plenty to say about it.


How long do you expect them to go?

IWP<< I want pr0n

week 5 and change

Ok, finally. It only took me over a year to get back to this point again. pr0n!!

Need to go in and defoliate a little bit, but otherwise things are pretty good. Fed them with some veg tea today to help slow the fade down, and I must say that the SuperSoil top feed I did seemed to keep them at bay while I was gone.

[Bobotrank]

Thanks man. I was kinda thinking about the same thing on the Deadhead... definitely in the final stages right now... flush flush and away. I wasn't sure about the others though. I'm at about 6.5 weeks right now, I believe.

Shyza, being summoned quickly. Will be back ina few.

 

[colocowboy]

Looking forward to that deadhead pr*n
Plant vd, that's classic! lol

 

[Bobotrank]

week 6.5

Deadhead OG


Lambsbread


More Deadhead


Overview of the crew


With the flash on... I feel like you can see the trichs a little better this way.


Agent Orange


Lambsbread Small, but sweet smelling. She'll prolly be a 10 weeker (don't worry, I defoliated the dying stuff after I took the pics!)


My first confirmed male... ?p x SB1 This one was started later than the other two, but was quite a bit larger... which maybe makes me a tiny bit optimistic.


Good news is, the rootball was busting out of the 1 gallon pot, lol.


That's a wrap. I'm gonna go wash some dishes for the encore.

 

[whodatnation]

Everything looks damn good brobo! Wrapping up real nice, you'll be smoking in no time!

Do you go by trichs or what?

 

[Bobotrank]

Thanks amigo! Yeah, I like some amber trichs on my buds, so will be busting out the scope just to make sure they're ready before I do anything crazy

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

great stuff bobro, love seeing a screen that full. looks like a lot of hairs turned for 6 weeks. does deadhead finish in 8 or something?

either way looks like a hell of a harvest.

 

[whodatnation]

And to think he was going to toss this whole thing gotta love it!

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

i know lol i guess we all have our moments eh.
