Low Keys 2024 Season

I have had it 3 out of 5 years. 2 years ago we had a drought all summer and no septoria. I live in the woods and it is everywhere, no avoiding it. I have not found any treatments that do more than slow it down for a minute, and then, when your plant gets old and week at harvest time, it attacks the sugar leaves and forces you to harvest early. Hopefully the strain that was resistant last year will fair as well this year.

I won't use copper on cannabis, since it is a bioaccumulater. Copper might be ok on fruit that you wash, but I won't smoke plants that have been exposed to it. I would rather find resistant plants, which I have grown before. I will use BT and Zerotol, but that is about it.

Ohh okay gotcha, organic huh? I’m sure there’s stuff out there I just can’t afford it but I used copper and it helped I try not to use much when everything’s budding tho

Mother Nature is fuxking with me, the week I want to get my plants outside to get em to harden off it’s been storming since Monday, today it’s tornado warning and flash flood watches, gotta love that Missouri Weather, but I did get a handful of my back up plants outside I just don’t kno where to actually put them later

I got four of them in. 33 bags of composted manure to refresh the terraced hill. I will start trimming back the bamboo in a few days which will then give them more light. Nothing like having 9 plants in a 2x2 tent, now going set the tent up for 4. Sprinkling chicken shit about hides the other smells for a few minutes.
I am so sore from humping stuff and I have to go coach a bunch of 12 year old's in a hour.. Spent so much time in garden I missed the senior citizen day at Hick's.

Copper is pretty much the only thing I have heard of that helps, and sulfur, copper is "organic", funny enough. Never heard of anything else that works. But, I have seen individual plants be unscathed by septoria! So I will try to grow those.
