Hello. Here's a home made hack you can try - In 1 liter put about 20 drops of Almond oil or Peppermint oil or Lemon Balm oil add about 5 drops of liquid dish soap and put out in small trays or upside down lids. All the oils work but you need to find which one works best for you. I've seen the little glass viles of oil for sale where you buy incense or aroma therapy type places. The thrips are attracted to the smell and they drink but it's the soap that kills them. Chuck.

My Girl's Gone Rogue with 10cm of Frosty Goodness!My lady decided to shatter the whole "week 10 harvest" and instead shoot 10cm, packing new flowers whiter than a yeti's behind in a blizzard!
This genetic curveball beats me.
Do I let her keep this frosty stretch, or do I harvest and let this mutant masterpiece become a solo acta year ago

Why dont my plants grow towards the middle/light and instead concentrate near the walls?Looks like my plants are growing towards the wall and not towards the middle where the light should be the best.
Why do the plants behave like that and what should I do?
Raise the net, rotate some of the plants, then redo the net?
Remove the net completely?
leave it as it is?8 months ago

What do you guys think?It's my first grow (automatic, 6 weeks old) and compared to other plants, my plant looks a bit small/ridiculous. I give her 24/7 light (I read that on guides) is that maybe too much? What's your impression of her? I use two growlights (one from above and one from the side).Other. General questions
