Pistils have gone crazy this week so I decided to switch to Flowering nutes. In previous weeks I spoke highly of the Neem powder being mixed in to the soil, but this week I discovered bugs underneath the leaves. I've sprayed with diluted Neem powder last night and today they are gone.
In one of the pictures you can already see crystals forming on the smaller sugar leaves - exciting times.
@Ryder,
Bugger, that is something I didn't consider here. Running an average of 67% humidity all year round and I'm about 50 meters from the sea. Lets see how it all goes.
@RustyStarbuck72,
Mine was slightly deformed too when it popped out of the soil, but it has grown strong and doesn't show any deformity anymore. Lets see how it turns out.
@RustyStarbuck72,
Thanks mate. This is my first one and so far so good. I've been playing around with the LST this week, you'll see the pics in my next updated diary.
@Ryder,
Absolutely bloody spewing mate. I gave her a good hose down and we'll see how it goes. If she survives til harvest, I read that you can wash the plant in bicarb soda and lemon to kill them off before hanging for the dry.
