Oh, you let the whole bomb go, not attach a spray thingy to it then.

Well, the first bomb didn't work. I gotta use the second and make sure it gets in there.

Week 7 Flower. I set off another bug bomb. This time I directed more of it towards the plants and I think that got them. At least all I could find were dead mites. I think I am safe for a couple weeks anyway. This batch is drinking more then the last but I cant complain. I think this will be a pretty good yield. Thrichome production on the Afghan Kush is a little shy but the White Rhino is bad ass man.

Hell ya. These girls dont wanna stop growing.
The Rhino is pretty much done but he afghan kush looks like they got a bit more to go.
I think I am going to try harvesting the buds that are done and let the rest go a couple weeks this time.

Thanks alot, I really thought your idea of switching the cycle to 8 pm on to 8 am off was ingenious for the summer months!!!

Any idea on how big of a change to their cycle I can make in 24 hrs as to not shock them while changing the times??

Can I adjust by a couple hours per day do you think?

Thanks for your help!

I cant remember ever doing it actually. I would say they would be fine a couple hours a day.

If it were me I would look at my crop and think, ok do I want them taller or shorter.
If taller I would go an extra 12 hours dark to correct the cycle or vice versa.
12 hours dark may get a bit of stretch while an extra 12 on surely wouldnt hurt them.

Well, it looks like I dont have to worry about the floro grow in the smaller cab anymore.
Somehow the hose to the pump for that cab came off and I had a little fountian in my res. I found it this morning.
Probably happened a couple days ago when I drained and cleaned the res. I didnt check on them yesterday.
They are all dead.



Oh well. It sucks but this grow had problems anyway. I figure they were at about 600 ppms when they stopped getting water so the buds will probably be filled with nutes. Looks like I got more bubble material. Dam I got a lot now. I guess its time to get some ice.

Yea, me too. It just shows you how fast a aero grow can turn on ya.
If I had hydroton in there instead of just air they would have made it.

That's the main reason I hand-water.

I'd be terrified half the time that there was something going wrong.

Even after a complete watering (well over a gallon each, with a half-inch of water in the trays) in 10 gallon pots, the Ladies use up their water and start wilting in 48 hours, and that's only soil! I can't imagine how long plants as big as mine would last in a malfunctioning auto-water system. Probably like half an hour.
