Mephisto Genetics White Crack and Kis Organics Soil

[Organic Sinse]

With fresh traps, the worst ones are on the smaller Jr. They are coming out the covered alternate feeding hole, and around the stem. The product I snagged is Microbe Lift. I'll be adding this weekly or biweekly top watered in. I'll give it 2-3 weeks of pressure, re-evaluate whether I order me some predators (either nematodes or mites).

I will be real interested to see how BTi works on your pests. It sure works well on things like caterpillars and worms like pin worms and moth larvae etc.
cheers

This is the best I can do for today. I bumped this bud watering and it broke the stem. I scoped her. I see a few amber and some cloudy. Still some clear. I plan on chopping in 6 days. I think she will be ready by then. I see colors changing on tbe leaves and yellowing more each day. I will take a bunch of pics at harvest, when I can take some nice pics at different angles. Even with a good camera, I can only get an overhead shot. I will use the wifes phone at harvest. I want to show her off, I am personally really happy with the results. For the amount of effort I put in she did awesome!

Honestly I can't discount my seedling phase being the problem. I think I tend to slap 'em in the final pot a little too soon, then they stall for a bit. As stated earlier, going to work on my germ/early seedling game a bit. Try getting rid of the rapid rooters, maybe up pot once before final. Or it could just be a janky pheno. One thing is for sure -- this one is 3 days younger than the 24CxCQ's in the Jrs and they are kicking it's ass.

I still don't have a cover on the 5gal, lol. On the list! But she is drinking from the res now. Probably 0.5gallons/day.

Hoping to get the old 400w HID running today. Seems my oil heater is running an average of 375w (on 600w setting, averaging on/off periods). So the 400w heater with a built in light should work about the same, and my net wattage for lights+heat should actually go down even if my lighting wattage stays flat.

Transplant around day 10-12 is best for me. Too soon, not good. 14+ days can start to get hungry. You cant go wrong at dsy 11 or 12 IMO.. they shiuld have a good root system by then. A good start is everything. No bumps in the road early helps a ton. Good luck, slow

Strawberry Nugs is nearing transplant time, she is close to the 12 day mark.

Got the 400w HPS running last night. Had to redo the lights & supports a little temporarily until the weekend. That old hood is heavy. I think it had a glass panel on it at some point, it's rigged for venting but I'm running it open right now. Temps hover right around 75 with only the HPS. We shall see what it drops to during the dark period and whether or not I run the heater during dark periods.

Shut down 2 quantums, so now I have a hodge podge of lights. Now running 1 HPS 400w, 1 HLG QB288, 1 HLG QB98, 1 Atrium 288.

Got my ultrasonic humidifier automated now. Dailing that in, have it set to toggle at 50%. Humidity spikes during dark and rather than a timer, I just automated it using node-red.

Still need to shuffle the supports and lights to their final places this weekend. Going to move the pond liner into the tent to get it warmed up before laying/cutting. It's been off-gassing now for a few days. If everything works as planned, I should have a 4x8 raised platform that drains into a gutter.

Going to treat with BTI tomorrow, and twice weekly for a few weeks going forward. Gotta snag a new sprayer for the drenches so I get a nice even and complete coverage.

I haven't made much progress on the DIY sip tote. Everything is ready just got to do final assembly, hole drilling, and then measuring capacity. My only concern is what the final weight will be loaded. I still have two more grobucket kits -- debating giving those a full shot with the next seeds I run. Which should be soon. My perpetual is all flowering now need some veggin.

Just pressed that tiny bud I bumped off the other day into Rosin just now. Per usual, White Crack really pressed well! Very nice yield from that tiny bud, it was not large. Especially for being dried for less than 2 days. Love this strain! Taking in 4 to 5 more days. Final countdown!

I’ve had real good luck with this sprayer ..... I got so tired of going to big box stores and trying to find a decent reasonably priced sprayer and then I thought why not try the jungle giant and bingo I’ve had for about a year now, wonderful build - Just thought I would mention

Amazon product

With the gro buckets they will work but due to the vertical rise the wicking of the soil is not efficient in the upper portions - To combat this make sure your soil is peat based and has very little drainage things like sand or lava ..... Also put plastic cover on top to help with condensation .....

Good luck!

Killer news slow, glad for you ..... Anxious to heat a well dried smoke report and your comparison to hydro grow .....

I have some white crack seeds and next year I will run one but think I will run in the original earthbox verses the junior ..... The original holds a ton of soil, so much I needed to remove 4 gallons of soil just to move the box onto my little red wagon - Soil was heaped up / over the sides pretty good and that plastic cover managed to hold it all in.

Yes I am excited! The quality looks stellar. The size is bigger than my coco WC, but in all fairness that is only in 1/2 gal coco. So it wont get as big, on purpose. I am really looking forward to doing some other seeds. Transplanting some Clones into Juniors tonight. Putting 2 in 1 Junior, veg only 1 week and then flip. Fast Master mom got HUGE! So I dont want to veg my clones more than a week.
