What I am attempting is bringing the outdoors indoors using organic no-till , No bottled nutrients. Only composted fruit and vegetable scraps, Composted cow manure that is loaded with red wiggler worms. I was able to source that from a small local dairy farm for $3 dollars a bag. about 50 pounds when wet. Like I was told by a very smart grower."THE PLANT KNOWS WHAT TO DO JUST DON'T KILL IT" EASIER SAID THEN DONE. I'll try not to over water and see how we do. Thank you for the opportunity to show what this old foggy can grow. I am all for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness as guaranteed in our constitution. I interpret that as, don't mess with my fun and I won't mess with your's. Grow with nature, Grow in Peace. Emmett

Week three is getting good. A question for anyone who knows. After the seeds pop up and get these long skinny stems. Should I plant them like a tomato plant and bury/plant them right up to the bottom of the first leaf? I have never gotten a straight answer. If you know please enlighten me. We lost our Blue-Berry Gum strain. It just flopped over like a bean sprout in a wok. We still have 5 GSC a cheese, and a white widow. We have a south facing porch and Ya can't beat nature for vegging. The girls found out they had roots this week and are getting their third set of true leaves. I propped them up with some green foam coated wire until the stocks stiffen up.😌. If anyone has any idea about this stageand the skinny stalks please let me know if I'm doing it wrong here. First attempt at non auto seeds. Thank you. em.

Powdery mildew? is there an organic way to treat it? Milk? mild vinegar solution I have tried the milk spray. It may have knocked it back a little but i'm pulling leaves every day and keeping a close eye out for it.
Solved
Leaves. White powder

Hey there so there are many treatments for PM. Like you mentioned milk is good something about lactobacillus works very well. Ive heard vinegar as well. Any silcon solution is a great option so a calcium silicate or especially potassium silicate. Theres some products called "pre-vent" and its special towards powdery mildew and botrytis(grey mold). Products that contain sulfur or bicarbonate are good, such as neem oil has sulfur in it and that helps it to attack all the spores and prevent the colony from reproducing. If you do the milk option which is one of the best non chemical methods i would do about a 1 to 10 ratio with your mixture. The bicarbonate option is essentially baking soda highly diluted, in that mix you can also add a very small amount of vegetable/mineral oil to help counteract the sodium. Best of luck. Check out the kis organics cannabis cultivation and science podcast, its got a great episode all on PM. Happy growing and flowering.✌️

Hello ! Well if she's swelling up even without drinking then I woul not worrry about it and just wait for the soil to be dry before the last watering , that mean you have still nutrients in the soil and the plant are using them while soil is moist. She's nice but for an autoflower under a 12h light schedule you should go to week 12 at least and check the trichomes with a magnifier before harvest. I hope it will help you 😁👍

Thank you. That "pursuit of happyness" is my defence for growing. It makes me happy. So doesn't brewing beer. I don't even drink, but a few. I have a thirsty extended family that make good use of my Brushy Mountain Brew. Looking into combining wine and cannabis like they did 4 -5 thousand years ago. Use the buds instead of hops ion beer. Thanks fo noticing. peace love and grow yer own. .

Hi @emmett! Neem oil, milk, potassium bicarbonate, garlic, sulfur [...] will do te job. Since you're in late flowering stage, I'd recommend to go with garlic which contains a lot of sulfur. This works best when combined with rubbing alcohol or neem oil but I won't risk to pollute your buds, so maybe just a few drops of neem oil mixed with crushed garlics and water. To avoid bud pollution I won't use a foliar spray but I would do it with a sponge, delicately applying the solution onto the leaves. This will require some time/efforts but you'll ensure not to ruin your buds. Hope this wil help, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

Neem oil is supposed to be best for treating powdery mildew. Pretty sure a 4:1 ratio water to neem oil is the recommended mixture. Good luck 👍
