Day 131. Six weeks of flowering complete, two weeks to go. This is the one that the grow diary community has been waiting for ... its horrible! My best buds ruined by mites, its fitting that I crown the arrival of the HPS with added heat and reduced humidity for the mites. This should be a lesson in the rapidity of mite colonies. Can you actually be calm and not flip out? How do you react with this adversity? Disappear off Grow Diaries? Flip out and toss the plants? Get desperate and spray chemicals everywhere? The ladybugs arrived mid week. It will take some time to pick through the plants and thats the excruciating waiting. I have been redirecting them to these clones as their distribution is erratic. They don’t see beautiful buds ruined, they take the first insects they see. I will probably flip things and look to budwash first, then dry trim. You won’t see ol’ Beans disappear when the rough patches hit. Consistency, friends.
Not the HUGE yields we see here so often on growdiaries. But REAL number of SMOKABLE bud. That’s how we do our dry weights. I think that’s a far better representation of a grow than half trimmed (maybe no trim) dry weights. 👏
Classy material yet again sir.
