I was having some problems with pests in my tent. Gnat infest and a couple thrips. Sprayed neem oil and sprinkled diatomaceous earth around the top. Some are struggling more than others. The pests are thinning for sure. Hopefully they didn’t hurt the ladies too bad. These are also my first auto’s!
This critical ogre is a beast! Biggest in the tent. I topped the big one. It’s starting to flower but the others in the tent are behind so I’ll switch to 3000k lights next week.
Just when you think you have it under control you go out of town for a few days and come back to thriving thrip infest! I have been able to keep the gnats and thrips under control for the most part but this week they did some damage. LESSON LEARNED: DO NOT BE CHEAP ON YOUR SOIL!!! As you can see I have sticky pads on both sides of my tent and I sprayed neem oil last night. I also put down some food grade diatomaceous earth. Hopefully I can get rid of these pests before they start flowering! If not I will have to get some lady bugs and amblyseius cucumeris to finish the job. Anybody have any experience with amblyseius cucumeris before?
Still waiting on bud to finish curing! Once it’s ready, I will try it out and update the results!!
The gnats were around for the first few weeks and stunted the plants. I thinned them out throughout. They became non existent the last 4-5 weeks. The stunting happened when they was a seedling. The thrips weren’t there long, maybe a couple weeks but you can see their markings on the leaves(silvery spots all over). I PH’d the water everytime to 6.3-6.5 but shot for 6.4. I could have used more cal/mag throughout as I saw some def in the lead tips which is a cal def and some purpling stems which is mag def. but nothing too off. I use fluorescent lights on a light mover. It’s 16-2 foot high output bulbs and this was their first grow. These were the quickest to finish but they were also some of the smallest. So far seedsman auto kush and auto diesel look to be the biggest yields. Fast buds look good but they are all smaller than seedsman.
Smoke is smooth and tasty! The ride is exactly what I want from a hubrid. The relaxed chill feel also with the uppity feel in the dome. I highly recommend this one from @seedsman 👌0
