Gwe: Solo cup grow off : 2020

[Canuck147]

Are we there yet?

I-O! I don't live in Ohio, CT, but my father was raised there and I still have family around the Youngstown area. I am a huge Buckeyes and Cleveland Browns fan, I still claim to be an Indians fan even though I pretty much gave up on MLB in like 2004.

O-H!

I see that OSU piece in the back. If you live in Ohio, whereabouts are you? I’ve been here for about 9 years now.

Thanks!

[Doubledealing72]

Thanks guys! I agree, and am very happy with it!

They're at the start of flowering week 6. Smelling good, I hope the buds fatten up. The colors on the coco cup are pretty awesome.

oldjarhead100 Funny you should mention ladybugs. We had insanely nice weather yesterday afternoon and Ladybugs were about. My wife managed to grab two and put them in the tent. I have another thread on the Borg and I've used everything I can think of. Anyway, something is working in the tent. The two ladies were dead in an hour. A waste of a helper bug but I'll never know if they were affected by lingering vapors from the Hot Shot or if they ate poisoned mites. I'm hoping poisoned mites as it might mean we've turned the corner.

you can buy 3000 lady bug for short money ,I bought 3000 for my Green House and another for the woods grow as long as there is a steady supply of food they will stick around , now inside I found if add them every two weeks you wont see an aphid again ,you might also have spider mites if you have webs

JuanHondo you can put on a pedestal so shes at the same height as the others who look great by the way

Pics from today, still just rolling along. Think I’m gonna miss out on the deadline, but don’t think I had a chance against some of these grows in here... killer job everyone! I’ll post what I have closer to the end.

Good job getting it hear.

No axe swinging today Gingerbeard - had not watered my teeny weeny past 2 days and she was looking thirsty and droopy - trichomes still just cloudy.

So I gave her a feeding with tea today - all she did was get all perky and turned most of her leaves yellow and her trichomes are now getting quite white.

Maybe tomorrow........

Varying schools of thought on that. A small percentage of loss is likely but not a real trichome remover. On the other hand if not done then the entire plant is in the burn pit!

[Eliot Pryor]

Thank you,sir. Doesn't that wash away the trichromes ?

Eliot Pryor, Last summer I ended up with an aphid situation on my first grow, outdoors. After chop and wet trim I used a three station setup with a baking soda bath for the alkaline, a peroxide wash for the opposite and then a water wash and dry. First two buckets were filthy with aphids and the rinse was much better. I probably have been smoking aphids since October! Anyway, Han is sooner to the bath than later I think. I just had lights on and took a peek inside the tent. Not pretty. I'm still ahead of the webs and I'm slowing it down but time is not on my side with the three other normal size plants in the tent. They have from 3 to 5 weeks yet and I'm not sure yet if I will prevail.
