As a preventative I wouldn't spray past wk two. I agree with curious - a drench would be best. You could probably squeak by with a quick foliar of Si too. That'll help a little too.

Thanks....Yes it is strictly preventative at this point...Perhaps I'll spray one more time and then just root drench after that. Hopefully this goes well, I have a bunch of exciting new strains.

I did spray my last batch that had pm right up until harvest and it smokes fine, but they were small buds...and I think it was the GH Exile that changed my pistols early with last batch.

Thanks again...I know you two use it. It's amazing how many people are against it, for whatever reason... Let them enjoy smoking bugs and pm, lol...

Ever smell a Sugar cane factory?
When we lived in the Philippines us kids would plant our faces into the pillows in the back of the station wagon to try not to smell that "sour dishcloth" scent.

Nope. I've had rum a few times though. When the wind is right we can smell the lumber mill that's about 15 miles away. It's ok when they are running doug fir. White fir not so much.

Grocery stores here are all like that. Line up for an hour before you even get in. Still feels surreal going into places where there's lots of people. You don't wear a mask whenever you're in public? It's the new mirrored sunglasses... You can stick your tongue out, mouth FU and nobody knows.

I have not been wearing a mask, but didn't think of the tongue beny's...that's incentive. Actually I haven't hardly been out in 2 weeks, but effective Friday it is law in NY you have to wear a mask in public. You can't buy one anywhere though, so they are saying make them. I dug out my construction mask, washed it, put a new filter in, and it's stylin'!! It's not one of the big bulky ones so it will be fine.

I did have 3 new boxes of latex gloves...I always wear them trimming and working on the plants so that was good. I have been wearing gloves at the drive up bank, or gas pumps, or handling money, and I refuse to eat any take-out just yet!

And your scrog is beautiful...makes mine look like such a hack job, but only because mine IS a hack job!!

Don't waste your time on gloves. They give a false sense of security. Just consider your hands dirty outside and wash/disinfect them inside and keep your filthy hands off your face!

Thats probably true...but I have a bad bad habit of always touching my face, and have been working really hard not too, so the gloves do give a tiny bit extra protection for when I slip and rub my chin after pumping gas say(thanks whoever it was who posted that pic of the chick rubbing her ass at the gas pumps)....and I have been washing my hands a lot, probably too much. I had to slather up my hands with Neosporin before bed the other night because they were almost raw and puffy, I think from antibacterial soap...so I broke out some regular bar soap to use and they seem ok now.

I have been trying to disinfect everything, but of course it's impossible to clean everything.

I learned a really good lesson from my plants here recently, that you were a part of. With my new IPM I learned how keeping a plant healthy can make a huge difference in it's well being, and it made me realize it's the same with us...I have been trying to eat really well, avoid stress, take my vitamins, get some exercise, and just be healthy, and i think that's probably the best thing we can do right now.

Thanks! My squares keep getting smaller and smaller. I've gone from 6" to 3" and this one is 2 1/4". I'm going to do a heavy defoliation this weekend and drop it down, then start flower in two weeks. I've struggled with it being too bushy in the center on my previous scrog attempts so this time I'm showing no mercy. It's strong! I bet it could hold my weight if the rest of the tent was strong enough to support it.

That seems a little draconian. I'm only using a mask when social distancing isn't possible like grocery and drug stores. If I'm just taking a walk I don't wear one. I've been using disposable gloves too... but I put them in the garbage when I'm done. The parking lot at the grocery store near me is littered with gloves and masks that people have thrown on the ground. >:(
