Shockolateman08started grow question 4 years ago
Anyone else go to this extreme?!? My problem is still small but it's still a problem. I was going to chuck everything and clean the space properly...did that. But they're still on the plant. Sell in bulk of 1000, so outdoor 1s the only choice.

I'm not sure why you think it's an "extreme".. It's a pretty used method by growers.
- hell, we had strawberries on the balcony when I was a child, and would catch ladybugs whenever we spotted aphids on them.
Catch some more tho. They tend to fly off, once they've eaten their fill.

Lmao it's extreme because I've been looking for them lately and when I found this one in the front yard...my wife said I looked like a crackhead looking for a bug 😳😑👌w.e LMFAO. I'm still very very......very new to all this, so excuse my stupidity in my questions. I know what you said rap a cap and I've been reading. One ladybug should suffice till harvest if it doesn't fly away. The mites are still in very small populations.

Hi brother, I also buy ladybug larvae and release them outside to fight aphids. As I have already told you before, your plant is infested with mutes and not aphids so ladybugs are not very effective. Furthermore, the packages contain the larvae and not the adult and a large population of aphids is needed because otherwise the larvae would starve (1 larva must eat no less than 100 aphids per day to survive). Just this morning I bought an organic spray with thyme and nettle essence, let's see how it goes, I have a plant with an initial mites infestation. Try it too.

I live in a country where they don't sell this kind of pest control, but I do it myself.
Ladybugs are amazing, keep on the great care!
Happy smokes!

YieldThis is my first grow. My hand is in the picture for size reference. I believe it is starting to flower. This grow is being done in a trashcan and is a micro grow. Does anyone have any idea what kind of yield I will get? Or if there is anything i can do to maximize the yield?

No sign of flowering, see close up picturesGirls are looking really good but no sign of flowering. It has been 40 days from germination, please see close up pictures in week 5.
I learned from other websites that 12-12 light schedule could be used to initiate flowering.
Any suggestion?

Yield EstimationHi growers!
Estimation needed on what I can expect per plant from my super skunk. They're in Week 9 of Veg, 38cm tall, mainlined for 8 colas. I want to switch them to 12/12 next week.
What can I expect as yield per plant and how is it gonna change if I wait a week longer?

Is it normal for bud sites to develop this low to the base?Buds growing very close to base.Never seen this before and I only caught it because I was removing the crumbling bottom leafs that haven’t gotten light in two weeks. These aren’t where normal popcorn buds grow, is this a strain thing? They will not get any light, should I remove?
