Hey man, those are great plants for all the crap you have to do to take care of them. I remember my days of mile long walks in the woods hauling water and nutrients. It's hard to get something that nice.
First grow ever, outdoor, and in hydro? I'd say you're killing it. That's a tough thing to pull off. Good job bud
Your plants look nice and healthy! Nice! Yeah hauling water by hand must be a challenge. I truck my water in 225 gallon tote to a spot on my property that doesn't have water access. I use a 12v transfer pump to get it to each pot. It's a bit of a hassle but I have it dialed is it takes me about 2 hrs to water. Been doing a slow water for deeper absorbing. Triple digits have been kicking my butt. This week has been pretty tolerable. I took these photos today.
I was up there today with my loupe. Spider mites are not letting up! I am at a loss of what to do. I've tried spinosad, neem, azamax, Monterey 1-2-3. They won't let up. I am bummed.
Bro...I feel ya, different time zone, different problem. I have no issue with mites here, but fucking powedery mildew. Bane of my existence. Hope you find something that works. I seem to keep them away with neem, peppermint oil, and pyrithrins, but may want to back off that stuff at this stage in flower.
Yeah I'm trying to rotate between all the above. They aren't real bad but they are there. Damn! Glad that I have my diligence and my jewelers loupe. Onward and upward bro.
Keep on keeping on. That's all you can do. Hose em down everyday, maybe a spinosad here and there and hope for the best I guess? Sorry to hear that my brotha.
This is my first ever Grow. These are by no means monster plans but I don't think they are too bad for a first time grower. I can't wait for next year! Hoping to get a few pounds out of this harvest, but I really have no idea haha Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
Thanks man, I cannot wait for harvest. I'm sleeping in a tent every night there now and it's getting old. Got my trusty dog with me though.
Thank you sir! They sure have received a LOT of TLC that's for sure. I can't wait for my first harvest! Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
