USA Only *Tent Fires* Pinky Tuscadero Auto * Test Thread *

[Proph]

I had to top Pinky#2 this morning. The mold was starting to move to the outer parts of the cola. No sign of any in the rest of the 2 plants yet.
No sign in the other 3 plants but I guess it's just a matter of time.
I had only had one plant show one spot of mildew since I've been growing autos and that was in a small cab where temps were always a problem.
I'm pissed that it was my first (partial) grow in my new tent. I checked each plant for critters when I moved them and they were clean. I'm going to let the plants finish, chopping as necessary then drop 2 more which I'll continue to post here. The dried sample tells me it's already good smoke.

Mold is tough.. Ive had PM like 3 times... Hell, probably still have it somewhere dormant in my tent just waiting for the right conditions. I would definitely pause after your current grows and disinfect EVERYTHING in the tent.. Indoor grow temps for cannabis are also the optimal temps for mold.. 75-85 degrees with 40% or higher humidity.. That's like a sleep number bed for mold, lol. It can happen to anyone unfortunately.

Pm. Is a pisser for sure. Are you in the US ?
I use an organic product that's good for about a 150 different kinds of fungus. It's called Green cure. Works phenomenal on p.m. and other molds leaves nothing on your plant. it's made with like 86% potassium bicarbonate.
And you can use it right up to harvest. There's another product that we use here at the farm that I work at call Plant Therapy. Plant Therapy is good for a bunch of different mildews it's all organic it's also good to kill a lot of different nasty little bugs spider mites aphids whiteflies thripes and so on. And is made with essential oils. All organic. But I wouldn't use it within a week to the end of harvest. This personal preference I think it would leave a flavor if you didn't doing h202 wash. But the farmer uses it right up to harvest and up his clients don't seem to mind.

Proph, Pinky #2 is some potent smoke. That's just out of a dehydrator. Properly dried and cured it will be amazing.

One of the tricks on zucchini ( PM loves it ) is to take baking soda and mix it with water in a sprayer and spray the leaves every day. I believe it is the high alkalinity that the PM does not like. So the green cure makes sense.

Sure baking soda works good.
I had the P.M So bad for a long time in my inside grow that the PM got into my basement ceiling. In the wood of the floor board's and floor joices.
It's was so bad, 2 years ago I had to clean all of the basement out and wash it all with bleach water. UGH... 2 day's later I painted it all with zimmers moldicide paint. 12 gallons at $30 a gallon.

I've done good since then... until 2 weeks ago...
It's a factor of growing here. The whole hood has pm every where. I can't get away from it...
But not to worried now that the paint is on.
Will be shutting down the inside grow for the summer in May and clean... Again
The farmer, he used a sulfur burner for his big inside grow. It worked real good. But it stinks big time.

I don't usually wake and bake at 4:00pm but just had my best sleep in a while.
Checked both Pinkys and not a sign of mold. None on the others either. I lucked out. It never got through the thick film of resin between the tight-packed buds and just wiped off with my finger. No puff of spoors and not a sign of residue on the buds. This stuff looked more like the mycorrhizal fungi I've grown than any of the common molds I could find pics of and the ones that were close had descriptors that didn't jive with what I observed. Out of left-field, knowing what an amazing fungus it is, I wonder if myccos can actually enter and propagate on a plant it benefits?

@Proph , sorry so late to the party but it is germ day today! Dropped seeds into shot glass of spring water for a 24 hr soak and will be planted into insta-transplant solo cups tomorrow afternoon! Woohoo!

So this is my plan, feeble as it may be! This is to show the diversity of Pinky T in different size containers with different styles, shapes, of pots. Pinky T 1-3 will be 3 gal non-woven cloth pots as a “control set” , pinky #4 will be in a solo cup as I have never done a solo cup grow... pinky t#5 will be grown in one of my 2 gal buckets that have made appearances in other threads I have posted, and last but certainly not gonna be least is Pinky T in my diy two bucket S.I.P. 5 gal bucket system. Damn this is gonna be fun!

@Proph i hope this is ok as you stated at the beginning that you wanted as much diversity in grow styles and container sizes as possible... I will be in promix premium moisture for all as I am comfortable with that. I hope to do the solo and 5 gal SIP justice as this will be my first foray into both of those!
