what do you guys do to ward off powdery mildew. I've been using a 3in1 but can't anymore now that the plant is budding. My friend told me ice cold water with a tbsp of milk. Anyone got any ideas? It's not horrible yet, but I have some on the lower leaves, I've been picking bad leaves off and wiping others with a wet rag.

yep, the idea is to change the PH of your leaves surface. You can use a variety of different things to do so. Diluted milk has been known to work.

Neem and silica foliar sprays good for preventative but make sure your neem is 100% cold pressed and not the hydrophobic kind or it wont work.

I would clip off everything on the lower plant that is affected, and remove some fan leaves to increase the circulation around your plant. Make sure you dont handle other areas of your plant or other healthy plants after you've been touching the infected area or you will spread the spores.

Here's another plant I have. Was from some really old bagseed my friend gave me that he got from a guy who grew in the 80/90s. This is generation 2. There's one other of the seedlings that has the narrow leaf pheno but most threw to the wider leaf. The mother had small pods and long dark orange hairs all over the thing. Was not a couch high but a more upper one.

Hello all- I just got an e-mail from Alaska Airlines advertising flights (one way) from the California Bay Area airports to Kauai, Maui or Honolulu for $159....what a deal! (Cyber Monday). So I look at what lodging costs and everything's about $150 and up a night to stay there. I checked out Craigslist and found a few places for under $150 a night, but I hate dealing with Craigslist. I don't mind camping/backpacking, but have no idea if that's realistic. So I'm reaching out to the RIU community to see if anyone has any ideas, or experiences to share. I'm coming for 2weeks the last week of January. 1st week with the family in a condo or similar, then the 2nd week by myself. I would like to visit other growers and islands that 2nd week. So if any of you Hawaiian growers have a tip on a rental that 1st week with the family, or have a couch or a piece of floor for me to stay for a day or 2 that 2nd week, that would be great...I'll bring the smoke! Thanks TMB- PM me if you can help!

Check airbnb or vrbo for vacation rentals. Pretty good deals for any budget

Those trichs are ridiculous! How does it smell?


Here is the cola I chopped off of the Mulanje before the rain:





She had a few seeds in her :)

Smells like candied grape syrup, real sweet. The stems smell real sour.

I found this HUGE, beautifully stripped bean in one of my cherry puff nugs. Gonna run that one for sure, I'm thinking some stray pollen from my frosty CP male must've pollinated her by accident.

That macro is kine KC! What kind of camera did you use?

Please post pics of that grow when you pop that giant - it may be the next Girl Scout Cookies :)

Thanks for posting on the Seed Thread.

Cheers,
