Thanks @Burned Haze been using grandevo and vinerate as bio control 14 days apart, spino (still bio) was the knockout being tested. Last vinerate application was 11/15, spino was 11/25, the room was brought to 120+ for 5hrs on 12/5. None of that has any chemical control on scale (Vinerate is listed for one species and gwe says spino but lable says nothing about efficay). I don't disagree on efficacy of preditors, I don't want them crapping on my buds just as much as I dont want pests crapping on buds. I belive their efficacy is also limited by being indoors, it is not a greenhouse or somewhere with an ecosystem to suppoert the preditors. I also choose not to use horti oils, this leaves me with insecticide soap (at least for what I have on hand). Honestly the pruning I did was probably the most effective thing.

Ended up adding 1.5 g/gal of resivoir MOAB and 0.5 g/gal of resivoir pickle crisp to bring BR3 up to 880, then added another 1/2 gal ro to mellow to 840ppm. By my estimate she ate over 6g of fertilizer in a day and a half.

I’m not disagree or arguing with ya in anyway . Just adding a side not of my above post it meant for best ipm views and even or if with your scales are not a factorI would use those products and inless these “scales” starting showing as more population . If they do get worse when scanning get a knockout or a major defense for them Armored Scale Insects & Control

Showed up just in time for shipping day.

Made a few vials of just silica, a few of just sieves, and a couple mixed. Did not leave any "unpreserved". All looks fluffy and smooth flowing. The easiest way to distribute it I found was to put the sorbent media in the parent vial, shake it around a bit and dump the sorbent beads into a receiving vial leaving most of the pollen in the donor vial. I some what I would call one shot vials that I think would work well with @Buck5050 's bag tech. Simply bag the branch and dump vial in and shakey shake shake.

shakey shake shake.

Now you're speaking my language!

12/7 res change
1.25A:1B (2.5 g/gal, 2 g/gal)
0.5 g/gal epsom
0.25 g/gal pickle crisp

12/12 Things began to yellow, a decent lightening to the buckets more severe in the seedlings, added 0.5g/gal pickle crisp to the seedlings nothing to buckets.

12/13 added epsom to buckets 50-100ppm

Seed plants and veg clones are/have been on MC 1 part plus moab, pc, epsom.

Seedlings

1.25A:1B ever so short on N but definitely short on Ca. Pickle crisp greened things up but I don't want to exceede 1g/gal for fear of actually locking out N with the chlorine in it. Next up is 1.1A:1B at 4.5 g/gal or about that. 2.35g/gal A : 2.15 g/gal B this way I can actually measure the amounts by sticking with even number gallonages (scale reads to .1g). Will up the pickle crisp to 0.5 g/gal for an end target of 5.5 g/gal.

Also turned the cob rig up to 212W

and pannels to 188W

The cmh runs at 345 so about 40 w/sq. ft.

That is a bit more than I run with all led but not by much.

I am having to do lots of lst in general but specifically on the seedlings. Its almost like the cmh is causing the plants to grow in a more columnar form?

Yoga and photo op day

Citrius City one female. Lemon lime on stem rub. Her, Gorillaa Blues 2 and Skunky D 2 are fighting it out for most vigorous and well endowed at the moment.

 

[DopeDaniel]

@Frimpong bad dawg tester gsc x longbottom fighter 2x female. This is only the 2nd rub of the day and these are remarkably undistinctive in the stem rub. They are distinctively different growth habit tho.

 

[DopeDaniel]

@Mim Towls vanilla star 2x female. A little chemy on stem rub, VS1 is a little floral. I will be VS3 I had it pinned as a boy and it was the last to be id'd, some of the preflowers didn't seem to have pistils but there was a bit of pollen flying around so they may been pollinated as soon as they emerged.

We interrupt this irregular unscheduled update with.....

Bud on a leaf
Check.

@Buck5050 gorilla blues (the aforementioned GB2 in fact)

 

[Buck5050]

How interesting. Nice lush green leaf as well. I'll be starting flush on the pHenos of GB I have here, in a couple of days. I did a full first grab on one last night checking for bud rot. Hand smelled like them lemon head candies. Sour tart than sweet.

 

[DopeDaniel]

Pruned a bit off the gorilla blues and will revisit them in a few more days, early for the 21 day strip but ime/o some need it s ooner/more frequent.

I feel like I can smell the ripper in there but it is jard to see at this point. I havent grown gg4 so idk what it brings to the table other than some funky leaf potential.

 

[DopeDaniel]

The leaf has a bit of vareigation to it, woild have been practically unnoticable a few days ago before adding in pickle crisp.

 

[DopeDaniel]

Bhodi mother's hashplant. Anticipating this as much as the skunky d almost. First bhodi (first schwaggy too). A hint of sage on the stem rub, not super pungent just yet.

 

[DopeDaniel]

@Schwaggy P 3x Skunky D (100% females), bringing the funk to my garden! #notsweet I think I am going to transplant SD2 to give everything in the totes a little more room.
Opted for creative steaking of SD2, we'll see how rhis goes.



Will come back through with the pruners in a couple days.

Damn SS! Healthy ?

 

[Frimpong]

Looking great! That bad dawg looks awesome .

 

[DopeDaniel]

Damn SS! Healthy ?

Thanks Buck. I have been on this cusp for a minute now. I feel like I am finally getting a hold of how to manipulate salts. Planning some outdoor hydro for 2021 but will also get back to some of my organic/biodynamic roots.

Thanks frimp.
I like the looks of the shorter one but have learned not to pass final judgment until it burns.
