Hello. I have not seen any thrips this week and I've spent some time looking. I think what I sprayed last week helped to knock then down. According to my computer I get my Spinosad delivered today. I was reading about gardening this week and they mentioned nematodes and I said to myself how could I forget about the nematodes. Once in the soil they eat any pest they come across. So I called my local gardening store and ordered some. I think I might wait till the nematodes arrive and use them instead of the Spinosad.
The plants are looking and growing great. I did my first full flush yesterday. It was hot for around here the last few days so I thought I might cool the roots down a bit to help with heat stress.
I can see the resin starting to form and the plants look like they are going to form big tight buds. I think next week I'll have been with Grow Diaries a year now. I joined last year in the forth week of flowering in the greenhouse with Amnesia Lemon.
Something weird happened last night to me. I had just closed up the greenhouse and did a little bit of weeding and then wandered out front to check the cars before retiring for the night. I looked across the street and said hi to a neighbor walking her dog and she said "Hi Chuck" when a older man who was just walking by and said "Hi Chuck. Do you know who I am. He looked familiar, but when he said is name I knew who he was. Someone I was friends with an long time ago and had partied with many times in my young adult life. He had just gone for a walk after supper and thought he would walk a different way for a change. He doesn't look like he use to and neither do I, so to have him there just as the neighbor said my name is just weird. Makes me think that maybe some unfinished karma has yet to happen. So we exchanged phone numbers and sat on my back patio for a couple of hours reminiscing and telling each other what we had done with our lives. It was great to see him again, but weird circumstance to come together. I hadn't seen him in 37 years.
Till next time. Chuck.
@Ned_Grows, Hello Beard Brother. My wife likes my beard too, and has asked me to never shave it off. Thanks for your support. With the clone machine the air pump was the biggest expense. I bought a new air pump for this and my main grow room air pump craped out. So I put the new one in grow room and dug out my last used air pump for the DIY clone machine and it worked great. Chuck.
Plants are looking good my Bearded Brother ๐, thats good you got some free seeds to try out even if they are just auto's but yes I agree with you about the ruderalis they can keep that and also the feminised insest crap too I'll take the regular seeds they have the best genetics ๐
@ZoobZoob_farmZ, Wow Thanks for all the likes Buddy. This is my 5th year growing in the greenhouse. I joined GD with "Amnesia Lemon in the Greenhouse" Diary last year. I think I sorta got a style going. Chuck.
@DoDrugs420, Yeah! It's looking good. I'll take some testing material just before I flush (I flush after my 8th week is done) so I've got an idea which is the strongest one and what the strength is, oh and taste too. Mmmm, Mango. Chuck
Wow! Nice grow! Of course, it's always great to help others. Sharing recipe, sharing tips, advice and guidance.
I'm certain it would be great help to someone bro!
100% Respect ๐
