Day 29 - grasshoppers again... more neem oil. Thinking I’m going to need something stronger... And now some spider thinks it can just move in and start making a nest by folding my fan leaves and sticking them together with web! How do I get rid of spiders without burning my plants?
Day 30 - fun day. No pictures. My mom discovered my grow, but lucky for me, she’s cool as shit. The big challenge will be telling my dad...
Nevertheless, I just played it cool today and was a huge kiss-ass😂
Day 31 - made it out to check on them after some heavy rains last night and they’re all loving life, but those damn grasshoppers are back! More neem oil and I sprayed Seven pre mixed solution all around the pots and ground around the ladies because I don’t want that shit on my plants themselves. Going to make some garlic spray and dust the ladies with some flower. The long legged jumping demons are starting to do a number altogether.
32 - didn’t make it out to check on them today.
33 - going to have to go chemical on the insecticide. Grasshoppers have almost completely eaten my Gorilla Glue Auto. I’ve attached some photos of the damage. Some good news, I did transplant all my photoperiods into 7 gallon fabric pots today and moved locations again due to some conditions with my mother. Lol. Not a big deal, I was going to move them anyway. Really really hoping I can get rid of my grasshopper problem with some Sevin concentrate spray.
34 - ladies are looking good in their new location. Still super worried about my GGA and the grasshopper problem. I am going to town today to watch Game of Thrones, so I will buy flour, garlic powder, AND some Sevin concentrate to mix and spray around the new location. I am pulling out all the stops, I can’t afford anymore leaves to be eaten, especially on GGA. ??? has fallen victim too, not nearly as bad though. Will spread garlic powder and spray the Sevin tomorrow all around the surrounding area and dust the leaves in flour.
35 - spread a ton of garlic powder around my pots today, then sprayed the Sevin concentrated mixture on top of that AND dusted all my ladies with flour. If this doesn’t stop the leaf munchers then I quit. I also topped all my plants today except for GGA and GSC 1 because I want GGA to grow another node and regain her leaf growth she’s lost. Didn’t top GSC 1 because her sixth node wasn’t even big enough to top off yet. Other than the grasshopper damage, they’re all looking pretty good!
@CoastGrower, thanks man! I’m excited to see how she tastes! She’s in the drying tent for a couple more days, then off to curing for weeks. Ha. Now to keep track of the other four!
@Puffer_Bill, rookie mistake, haha, but I feel better after being honest.
Thanks! Got some insecticide to spread around my pots that should take care of everything! 👍🏻
@kingdracokush, hell yeah man. It was a struggle at first, but I think all of mine are starting to pull through. Good luck! I’ll be following your grow!
My GSC was eaten by a snale😢. Going to plant an GG automatic instead.
They are looking nice! Going to become nice buds.
Good luck and feel free to check out my diaries.
