Some rainstorms this week, but everything survived just fine, sunny weather now so great for ripening these up! A little disappointed that in spite of the insect net I still removed probably well over 200 caterpillars this week. Not too much damage though, and still a lot better than previous years without the net. I'm going to have to take some extra measures next year, already got some good tips on that here ;)
I'm watching the SSSSC and GDD closely now for a harvest window. Most trichomes are already white, but I think there's a bit more growth in them and I want to give them all the time they need. I guess at least a week, but maybe more.. The SJC and OnM are a little bit further away from the chop, still.
Sieht super aus ich finde conoisseur genetics macht super genetic hatte noch nie solche Pflanzen die so schnell wachsen selbst die Mr. Nice Samen gehen nicht so ab viel Glück
Looks like you'll have some solid colas. Best of luck with the finish!
Btw- I've had good luck with using natural biotoxins to mitigate the issues with caterpillars. The moths will still lay the eggs but the larvae won't be able to eat the vegetation and quickly die before ravaging your plant.
@909grower, Mpoving forward, if you plant some species that those particular caterpillars/ moths target, nerby your crop, then those "dummy" plant5s will take the hit and not your ganja. I've found cruciferouse vegetables are much more desireable for these moths in my climate.
@909grower, I typically use a Thuricide concentrate. Was inroduced to me by my father-in-law, who's a former Agriculture professor, as an organic alterative to pest sprays for my vegetables. It's not toxic to humans and easily washes off. I wouldn't spray the flowers but most definitely good for the leaves. The thuricide prevents the larvae from being able to digest whatever they consume, and they eventually die of starvation soon after emerging from their eggs.
Nice job, plants look great. I have to mine in pots, would love to use a trellis. I still managed to do ok. Yes different strains show bud at different times. I think mine are starting the stretch. Well good luck
