OK - Busy day today and now I am a zombie. Made an arty pic of a bud and there are some daily update shots of outdoors and for Slanty - my ugly roots. I added MOAB today. I am thinking I will let the indoor go for two more weeks and then she is out. I may just work outdoors until the season is done and then go back inside. Both is just giving me a split personality...

Yeah.... been there done that a few weeks ago. Only reason his plant is still alive imo.

Looks like you need more tea in there though Mo. You should have seen a way bigger improvement by now. You have been adding it for a couple of weeks now no?

Hey Slanty - thanks for reminding me - I need to brew some more tea! I am kinda losing interest in the indoor since it is going to be such a low yield of questionable quality. I just want to start a new grow with a happy plant that I do not veg too long. However I have so much going on outside right now with my veggies and MJ that I do not have time to deal with a new indoor grow also. The pests are starting to multiply and I need to start trying all of the preventatives. Already got started with a few tricks.


Cheers,
Mo

cannazyme would only make this issue much worse with areoponics......zyme would feed the bad bacteria...

i think you will be ok Mo :) remember they are a weed! they will survive given the harshest climate! :p when your outdoor girls start to flower the bugs won't be so much of a problem...they cant eat what they cant get to, and they only get stuck in the trichs ;)

Hey FlowaMasta - I am really excited about the outdoor girls. The indoor is bulking up and I hope she can finish bofore the rot kills everything.

The bugs ruined half of my harvest last year. Full of bug poop and holes :(

Using neem, Safer BT, Sevin and Ditomaceous Earth this time. The ants are my problem this year.

I read on RIU that if you put Cocaine on your plants it makes them grow better. Half a kilo should be enough:

Hehe - just kidding :) I am trying Diatomaceous Earth (DE) to deter any pests. I have already seen a couple budworms dangling from their strings trying to get away!

DE for hydro:

Hydroponics

Freshwater diatomite can be used as a growing medium in hydroponic gardens.
It is also used as a growing medium in potted plants, particularly as bonsai soil. Bonsai enthusiasts use it as a soil additive, or pot a bonsai tree in 100% diatomaceous earth. Like perlite, vermiculite, and expanded clay, it retains water and nutrients, while draining fast and freely, allowing high oxygen circulation within the growing medium.

Hi All - This has been a busy weekend! I got my camera back :) It is a little wonky though :( The selection wheel does not work right now and the autofocus seems to be off a bit. I still managed to take more pictures than I can easily sift through. I spent all day working on these.

OK - Big Clone update

She is responding to the bending and bondage with remarkable results. She got a little wilted yesterday in the afternoon so I know I am not overwatering :)

BTW - I bent the FIM top branches down today to make them even with the other tips. I need to get on a ladder to get a top shot of this girl all spread out :)

Dude! Subscribed. Love the african sativa. This will be rad. Have you looked into making traditional Malawi cobb? It'd be worth sacrificing a 1/4oz to try anyhow. If you soak the roots of that one plant in a solution of 1 part 3% peroxide with 10 parts water for ten minutes or so it'll work wonders. I wanna smoke this vicariously through you...

Welcome Rascality Afoot!

I started with the H2O2 method but it just did not stop the rot. This bene tea is really doing the trick and I should have done it sooner. I made the problem worse by cutting back the number of air stones - the clear tubing was also helping it grow and the CFLs were making the cab too warm.


Today when I was pulling out the dead leaves, I finally got a nice wiff of bud perfume! This Malawi emits such a refreshing clean spicy scent of mint and basil. And the resin is more waxy than sticky. I hope she makes it two more weeks. However, if she bites it, I have the outdoor girls that are chugging along at light speed :)


Cheers,
Mo
