Fun Week!π³
This was the week to sit back, relax... watch the weeds grow... BAM!!! Fuckin' Thrips!!!!!!! π‘πΊ
My previous grow had little bit of thrips going on... I really thought I gave the tent a good cleaning... even washed the cloth filter that goes over the charcoal filter. π³
Oh well, half the time I'm worse for my plants then the bugs are ππ π.
I like to mix 1 part 3% Hydrogen Peroxide and 4 parts water... give the leaves a good spray under and on top. I found if I used anything else while flowering, the smell of the product would stick to the trichomes.
I'll probably add just a drop of insecticidal soap to the mix on the next spray... just to be sure... just have to be careful of the blooming buds. I did remove the leaves that had the damage... which was just a couple... help with the spread.
The girls have been drinking alot more now. 3L every 2-3 days... I expected that to increase more yet.π I'm still just using water... soil is taking care of the rest.
Since they stop the stretch... for the most part... I haven't moved the light any farther away then 18 inches... there is no burn on the pistels... yeah baby!!!π
I'll take care of the thrips... and cya's next week! π±
@@DownUnderNugz, Could be a couple of reasons... in the 9 week veg, alot of training is going on, that certainly stunts some growth...
I just give them water since they are growing in 'living soil', that could be a reason too since i'm not force feeding...
and of course, still learning the craft! π
Happy Growing!πππ
