TURMOIL WEEK AND A BIT So sadly its been a bit rough on my plants Got rid of the Spider Mites but the Fungus Gnats had their time to do some damage to my plants They had been there for a while, they seemed to be working their way with the mulch but little did i know what the larvae can do to my roots Also i had been overwatering the plants which just added to their misery!! I will blame this one on me, myself and I Luckily the Sour Diesel one was quite established so pretty much has only suffered some stunting a few leaves giving some bad signs due to Fungus Gnat Larvae and their effect :( Unlike my other plants which had signs of damping off and my seedling even folded in half (has been saved though) I relaxed the LST a bit because well I just wanted the plant to focus more on growing than adding anymore pressure... It is my first one after all I went full combat mode on the Gnats while still trying to stay natural 1) Biogrow Neem Oil Solution 2) Biogrow Pyrol Then next to help the roots out I added some 1) Cinnamon to the soil around the plant to fight root rot and also promote new root growth with extra soil added 2) Just put down some Diatomaceous earth to kill any larvae from the Fungus Gnats Lets hope this four way combo does the job, I am sure I will see some stunted plants... but so we learn for the next grow Also three new cover crops 1) Dill 2) Coriander Above two to fight off nasty pests 3) Red Clover for plant goodness Slowed down with the Worm Wee, with all these new additions I figured some plain rain water would be magic for the plants

Yes broad mites would definitely cause those symptoms! Shiny blistered leaves are the initial damage from broad mites. Silly I didn't think on that first!

Hey fellow grower! I almost lost 6 outdoor autos to an unexpected heat wave as well. They have since recovered and are doing well, I'm almost certain it's because I treated with a silicon based product just before it hit. You should try find something similar if you live somewhere that gets very hot days. I was actually treating mine with it to proactively fight PM before it hit, and discovered after that it helps for heat stress too. Here's the product I use https://hydroponic.co.za/hydroponics/silicon-plus/ - another good product to have on hand is liquid kelp, for recovery if it happens! Good luck out there 👍

@Epokwan, Just wanted to come back and say thank you for your advice I ended up with a product that supplies silicon and it worked out really well Thank you
Riveting
Riveting
@Epokwan, Thank you for the advice Yeah the heat took its toll, I lost my other seedling (but promptly ordered 3 more strains :D) I have seen a similar silicone product at a shop near me and will probably be grabbing it as part of a pack on black Friday as i also plan to experiment with other soils I have not looked at liquid kelp yet, but will do Appreciate it!

Hope you get your technical issues ironed out mate. Crazy thing about this pic is,, in AUS the pack of smokes would cost double what the bud would cost!! Seriously its extortion, cant afford to spin out bud anymore... well its a very tasty looking result there mate. Well done👍🏽

@Shooey That is insane but it is a bad habit I should kick.

did not know that coriender is good as a companion plant, is that so? thanks! nice grow
Riveting

@amazongrow, Yes it naturally wards off pests like Thrips, Aphids and Whiteflies also Spider Mites Just keeping them small around my plants to hopefully act as a barrier

Hey mate, love your passion!! Fk you fungus gnats! 🤣 full combat mode. Good on you for getting on top of it. I can see you are very attentive to the plants so success is inevitable. Coriander is enough to even keep me away, I hate that shit!! I found some Thai coriander and Thai basil which is a great companion plant, and also tastes alright too! All the best lad 🍻

@Shooey, Thank you! Yeah its not always easy learning as you go, it comes with costly mistakes and the experience is only rewarded during ones next grow... but so it goes I was rather happy with the fungus gnats during my mulching time as they seemed to only hang round the decaying mulch and i thought they would aid the decaying process, but little did I know the damage I would see down the line Edible cover crops are the best cover crops! Cheers

Lookin good burrrito. Well done mate. We are also having a mild summer to date, and wetter than usual. Its good you can bring em in when the weather gets a bit shitty. It will help to evade possible mould issues later on. Im kinda regretting my large pots now for exactly that reason. 🍻

@Shooey, Thanks mate Yeah its def been a wet one... Next grow should be easier as we go into dryer months still with some heat. Damn the mould and all it stands for!! but yes these 15L pots do help, especially these with the nice strong handles on the side.. I see their new range has LST holes near the top, So I will have to fork out and upgrade for sure :D
