Anyone in for growing trees? Summer Grow 2020

Cyan pepper may help as well, but me thinks birds wasps and predator bugs will be the best. Not an instant fix for sure it will take time. IF you can have chickens get a dozen chicks while the bugs are above ground and turn loose, they will gladly eat them.
Ants move them around as a farmer would cattle..

The only thing that will stop them is a barrier or to plant when they are not moving around. The main host plant that they live on is everywhere. In march and April sometimes till May the hills around my place turn yellow with the flowers from millions and millions of brittle bush. The root aphids fly in the trillions along with a thousand other things that hatch same time. I put some in as an experiment as the bugs were flying. I used sand as 70% of grow medium. Then I put 2 inch mixture of sand and dte on top. This so far seems to work. The main crop is going in now that the flowers and flyers are gone. I don't think they fly again till winter. Now if I could figure out how to adjust picture size so I could post pictures. Thank you for you interest and help. I live on the edge of wilderness area and natl. park so clearing large areas is not an option.

next time they go into fly mode, turn loose 5000 ladybugs! I would say ladybugs have been my best investment, I bought them when my girls were being eaten, and my grape vine was covered with aphids. I turned loose about 1000 on the grape vine, and the rest on the girls, in a few days there were no aphids left on the vine or the girls. They are everywhere this year, I see so many ladybugs I have to wonder, am I the only one putting them out, or? I have 2 commercial grows near me.

I live on the edge of a vast wilderness area no farming anywhere nearby. If I killed everyone of the f##@*&ing things on my place the next day more would flood in to fill the void. If I could drop millions ladybugs over the area by helicopter or something that might work.

I put out 1500 Ladybugs last year, this year they are everywhere, they were not that costly either. They will breed and make many more until the food is eaten up. Ladybug hotels would be good also, and cheap to make. Fight Mother nature with Mother nature!

The THP 3 seed 1 plant (1 sprouted upside down) MIS 3 seed 2 plants, I dropped a Sour Tangie Fem.
The autos are starting to grow.
The GG4, the 2 plants do not look alike, the leaves do, but the build of the plants, one is very bushy the other is not. Hmmm.

A few different angles today after the rain, the SSK (pic 4) is such a bush I am not sure what I am going to do with it when in full on flower. every single bud/limb site is growing. It is so dam bushy I may have to thin it!

 

[swegrow]

Looking forward to watch that bush grow even bigger! Wonderful plants!

This weeks update still flowering but it does appear some leaves look like revegging has begun.

 

[Rwise]

I dont think she will get a lot taller, but she does look like she could produce massive buds! I am seeing preflowers, so IDK what she will do.

 

[Rwise]

I think 1 of my Pieberts is reveging also, the other doesn't show it yet.

Ready for their final pots. Not quite as big as usual but had to keep them inside much longer than expected. Expecting heavy rain today so moved them under the overhang.

 

[Rwise]

They are going to luv more soil! Lookin good.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

All mine are revegging also.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Those are some really healthy looking bushes. There gonna explode in a bigger container

 

[Bowhunterwoody]

Yeah, like I said. Had to keep moving them inside due to the weather. Looks like smooth sailing now. They definitely need the room. Have almost doubled in size in a week with the natural light.

 

[Rwise]

Well it had to happen this year, I think 1 of the Pieberts is trying to reveg.

 

[Rwise]

They do like real light!

Rwise I fed my photos extra food of manure/bat guano tea every watering and mine are reverting back into veg cycle. I'm not sure if this helped but a neighbor weedie farmer told me that extra N helps with veg. I didn't give higher dosage in mix just gave it to them everytime they needed water.

After finding bud rot on my GSC yesterday (lost almost half) I went out and took leaves from the girls that are budding
