Russet mites was the only thing that made me tear everything down and start over. I hope you don’t have them and if you do good luck. I couldn’t get rid of them. This was years ago and maybe they have insecticides now that will work on them.
Thanks for the comments! Yeah...the lack of thought about my intake vents was a dumbass mistake. I sucked some thrips in too. I can cope with them but it stunted some of my seedlings. As for sprays, I hate 'em too. I don't go much further thank Captain Jack... it would be nice if that fully worked but it doesn't seem to with these little fuckers. I'm thinking it's that first hatching period where they just blow around in the air and land on everything (and get sucked into vents). We'll see how it goes...I think I may have figured this bullshit out. I never had this problem when I was being discrete and taking plants way out back... away from the apple trees.
Tell me more.
I DID tear things down after last summer and lost my spirit for a while until I started seed shopping... thus all talk and zero Bodhi results from me on RIU.
There is a Mango Taffy pheno that has golfball size nugs everywhere, it's one of the better "Candy Store" phenos that I came across! It won't have huge colas, but it def makes up for it in sheer #'s. I probably have a pic buried in this thread...Also, there is a point to talking about Prayer Tower Indica. I have one!
Cool! I've probably seen it but I'll look back. I bought that one looking more for a special high than expecting special flavors but Mango Taffy will definitely work. How was the high?
I learned to not say this because you are inviting disaster lol.
In my exp, I couldn't get rid of them with Forbid 4F and Avid, so I don't even try anymore. I developed breathing problems, so I don't even fuck with sprays anymore unless I am trying to raise Brix #'s with micronutrients. Horticulturist are big into Green Lacewings because they usually hang around and don't leave your ass like Lady Bugs will. It sounds like you have a habitat established for pests, you should make it more hospitable for beneficial insects too. They usually like the small pollinating flowers, but just about any flower that produces pollen or nectar should work... The fist pic of the purple flower is Cat Mint and they get HUGE. Plus, they come back every year and don't have to be replanted. https://www.permaculturenews.org/2014/10/04/plants-attract-beneficial-insects/ Also, this is just a breif list, there are more plants that will work than shown.
It was def a downer, but it was strong. I usually select my keepers by smell and frost, so it might not be the biggest one. However, it still yielded better than average. The smell was the best quality, it had a true Candy Store flavor.
This is Prayer Tower Indica. Keep in mind that this was over 4yrs ago and I didn't have my soil dialed in yet, but I was still getting great bud. I was fairly new to organic soil at the time... @Nutbag Poster Also, I had rabbits in my garage that winter, you can see the hair on the bud lol...
Ha... I SHOULD know better than to say that. I at least know how to recognize the problem now and get them outta there fast. That's a breakthrough itself. Thanks for the advice on beneficials bugs and plants. I'll look into that for sure. I had pondered trying out Swirski mites if things persist in my tent.
I've got the indica version too. I'll keep my eye out for that one when I get to that pack...it's nice to know what's possible and what to look for.
I'm after wookie crosses now! I had Black Raz for 2yrs and I ran several seed packs against it, but it held strong. I lost my Black Raz cut and I'm about to buy another pack. I was strongly considering just buying 2x packs of it(GLG Promo) because I KNOW that I like it. However, I'm willing to opt into trying a different wookie strain. I've seen you around, so I know that you are not just saying this lightly...
I spray with Miticide green in veg along with other stuff. It’s soybean oil and h20. Soap, cayenne pepper, cinnamon, a few others. I rotate Them. You can get a free sample. I ordered a bottle and sample at the same time. I don’t spray during lights on. I also use intake filters.Thanks for the comments!

Hey, I wasn't trying to call you out or anything. I'm not trying to act like Divine Intervention is supposed to be the best pack of seeds ever or I'm going to talk shit about you lol. Really, hanging out in this forum has led me to some great strains and I would take the word over someone on here compared to a salesman at a dispensary. I also know that F1 seeds can vary a lot, so the % of finding the same pheno as you might be low. I've seen you around for a while, so I respect your opinion. Also, I'm into the challenge, it'll be fun. I'll probably run it next to my favorite wookie strain Black Raz just to make this more interesting. I would just like to hear more about the strain because there is no real info except for your write up. Thanks for running the tester and putting the info out!!!
Cool...we have an example right here! Is this current? So if this is all true, then one of these should be Bodhi's Tiger Melon mother... likely the wonky one. Wishing you luck that this identical clone thing is truth! Bodhi would probably be interested enough to help you confirm it. It should have ZERO Snow Lotus influence...that might be a first sign that it's legit.
Is this from an old post? No worries. I was talking about mites. I think @bongrip101 also grew DIs. I didn't do a very good job on mine so he prob has better pics in this thread. I have 2 more in veg right now and so far they smell awesome on the step rub.
It was this one. I'm sorry man, I'm just excited because I'm buying seeds again. I feel like I'm posting too much now.
