Hi thanks for the quick comment. Yes has been like that a while and only suddenly began changing! Phew glad i caught it in the end though! What sort of predators would you recommend or would they all do the same job? I am growing out in a greenhouse but have a small fan going and ventilation. Thanks for the help! 👍

Into week 4 now and looking at other blue mystic journals, she seems kind of stubby and slow. Im guessing this is down to pot size and other novice parts I've played. Any advice or comments would be great.

Partial Harvesting and flushing the medium.Can I do partial harvesting of the flowers that are ready and leave the other to ripe on the plants for longer? If yes, how should I proceed with flushing the substrate with plain water? I need to get rid of the salts before harvesting, even if harvesting partially. Please help.

Is this Fungus Gnat Larvae?Found these little suckers in the DWC roots, sprayed some 1:4 peroxide/water solution all around, and tried to flush the roots too. Now I'm letting the roots soak in just water & hydro guard for now (ran out of peroxide). Thoughts

Can you mix botanigard, mosquito bits, and neem in one watering?Can you mix botanigard, mosquito bits, and neem oil in one watering? Won't neem oil be counterproductive and act against the other two fungi? Thanks!

I found 2 fungus gnats on one of my sticky traps. Is a couple of them a major cause for concern? I can't see any moving around. Both of the pots in the tent are currently closer to on the dry side. Should I take any preventative measures?

Natural insect repellant More of a comment then a question. I’ve had a lot a luck using cedar sawdust as mulch for plants. I grow a lot of veg and other Plants and it works really well to repel insects. All natural and smells great in the Garden.

I planted an extra stain but decided not to record it. I planted it the exact same time as my Polar Express, so it's 15 weeks in the ground. It's called Trans Siberian and I'm just wondering how long it might have left until harvest.

Rats on the farm I live on a farm and there are rats that run around in the night. Atm I'm moving my girl outside in the day 6am - 5pm, then inside for 4hrs of darkness, then under lights from 9pm - 6am. Repeat. The plan is to leave her outside 24hrs when flowering. Will the rats get her?

Alright I am not sure what to do. The breeder suggests 60 days in flower and she is ready for harvest. But because of the thrips infestation I had, 1 girl seems to be stunted. Should I just wait longer than 60 days and hopefully they recover and fully mature?
