Battle of the Beards: The Wasp vs The Pagan

Ok worked a bit on the plants structure today. I'm getting closer to what I am looking for. I worked on 3 of the 4 today with the Wonder Woman in the far right not done yet. The Green Ninja, the contest plant, is the back left. I'm guessing many wont see what I've done or where I am going but some of you will.

I thought I had a picture of everything that was removed but guess I forgot. I filled a 2ft by 18 inches by 10 inch tall box.
 
Lol Tika Gotta have fun with it. I wish I could impart some country wisdom on you but I just cant tell a story without the sound effects and body motions. And cant get close to telling a story like My Papaw could or I would tell you one.

To get a good image of a decent country story teller just watch some Jerry Clower. I doubt many here even know who he is except D.A.A.S.69
 
Oh My God, that brings back memories from when I was a kid. Dad had a few Clower albums! Nice reference bud...lol
 
Man alive...both tents now have nasty spider mite infestation...the borg type as well. It`s an organic grow so will undertake organic measures.....will start with a 9-1 water to alcohol solution tomorrow, wipe the leaves and stems. Man, that`s some work. Next day, spray with a compost tea. Might try molasses and alcohol as well for a few weeks...imagine this is just going to be a long, long old battle. Reading I`ve done says alcohol evaporates very quickly post wiping and doesn`t damage the leaves or plant. Well, we will see

This worked for me one grow. Nuke the sonsabitches! https://www.amazon.com/NPK-Industri...58368&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=mighty+wash&psc=1
 
Redwasp Nah, these things happen Red. Three yrs of growing and first infestation so been lucky and hammering the little fucks later this morning. What with this and hospital op tomorrow I have to really be on top of them today and then hopefully a bit down the line nail them again. Viewing this as an ongoing battle now. B`stards were partying yesterday like there was no tomorrow which for hopefully most of them will be the case. I couldn`t make this up Red. This has got to be one of the most protracted and problemed growing times I`ve known generally. If I didn`t get so much enjoyment outta this I`d be banging my head against a wall. These little fuckers are dead mites walking the green inch...saying that I`m closing the tents down June next year if not sooner due to the health of my uncle but when I do that will be a final, final erradication...I`m taking 3 months off over summer nowadays due to heat
 
starramus True mate, wouldn`t mind more money but not the attitude some people adopt when they have it. For some reason a lot of money changes a fair few people and it shouldn`t but it does and often not for the better sadly
 
PaganRich it does happen. I am better equipped to deal with issues of all kinds. Just by luck I guess. I can get anything I need with no issues and it will never hurt me. I hope you get those bastards. And the health goes well. You know me I'll never consider a win when someone is down.
 
Redwasp I`m planning on winning Red...highly unlikely granted but like the RAF against the Luftwaffe I reckon I`m in with a chance. Believe it or not but this grow has been a silver lining for me. Gives me a chance to natter to yourself and others and even these little fuckers are helping re-focus my thoughts. I`ve got neem oil, alcohol solution and SM-90 ordered plus in June I shut the tent down so it`s only battling for 8 months as these little b`stards I`ve got are the ones growers call the Borg. Well...resistance is futile for those little fellas is my motto. Later mate
 
Man, sorry to hear about Pagan, those little $hites suck!
If you have any plants that you have not flipped yet, you can give them a good watering with neem as well. Like two Tea spoons full per gallon of water, every 3-4 weeks till flowering. Only reason to stop by flowering switch, is so that the flavor can metabolize out of the plant, and not affect your bud flavor. I used it that way all summer, kept aphids away, which were having a party one foot away, on my tomato plants.
Good luck with the battle, I know Kingfish is always talking about the Captain Jacks Dead bug, sounds like it will deal a crippling blow to the fiends, as well( the stuff is basically Spinosad, so may be able to just order another brand if thats what they have over in Merry Old)
Hope the health issues go alright to,
my best,
Greenhouse
 
I don't know what is going on this year. Seems that Spider mites are on everybody's shit list. Don't fuck around with them. I Hit them hard with 2 things. Like greenhouse said. Spinosad if you can get it and Safer's soap. You have to alternate with both because they will get used to one kind but not 2 different kind of insectercide. Don't mess around with homemade remedies. They are a bitch to kill and WILL take over your grow if you don't. Good luck mate. I know what you're going though.
