Ah, I didn't know you were planning on using them both. Oops. I figured you were only going to use one.

I hear ya. I do want to be careful, sure I dont want insecticide in the finished product but also I dont want to create a super mite.
Ah, Well I looked closely both the doom and the other are pyrethrum. I guess one just has more in it. Thanks for the info.
Wow that much? Guess I will just get two nets.
So the smaller jars get a better finished product huh? "right amount of time" what, you go a month?
I was thinking it would be a lot eaiser with big ass jars, To burp I would dump it all out into a box let it set for a while then all back in but I havent tried it with that much before. Thanks.
I am going to use one. Well, one at a time. The way I understand it is the Attain works by stopping the juveniles from becoming adults and the pryethrum kills adults and juveniles. So I'm thinking hit it with the attain, let the existing eggs hatch and then a few days to a week hit it with the pryethrum to wipe them out in two treatments. Temps are just about right to do it, Sound good?

That actually sounds like a great plan and you really should space out the treatments at least a few days like you're saying. After the final bombing everything should be OK to harvest after about a week, assuming the plants are ready.
Good. Then that's what I am going to do tomorrow night.
I will plan on cutting in two weeks. Starting with the Kush.
Sure, no problem. good luck man.

yeah it was packed in there but it worked great. i dont really have a set time just put a couple grams more than an Oz or 1/2 Oz and take testers to see if its "done". i go atleast a week before i try any of it. im not sayin it cant be done in the large jars just weve found that an Oz at a time when "sweated" doesnt add too much moisture and could be more controlled with less attention.

Yea, I know what you mean, once the stuff is dry it doesn't lose much weight in the jars. I got a case of the square quart jars before at OSH, used those, about an oz at a time. I get about 40 grams in them for long term storage. and have used 1/2 gallon jars I found but nothing like that 2.5 gallon I saw online. I gotta try them.

Hey Cruze. I would really not recommend using that Pyrethrin one this late in the game. The Attain should really do the trick by itself, especially if you have been keeping them in check. If you need to do a second bombing, use another Attain. The Pyrethrin is way to high of a residue left behind.
No kidding man.
Ya know, I was thinking about that last night. with only a couple weeks left maybe I wouldn't need a second treatment. But if so the attain leaves less residue. Thanks again for your info. I would hate to go through all this then fuck it all up.

Call me picky, but this is the one I like. 5.3 quarts, almost 1.5 gal. Container store also search hermetic jars.

OK, well today was an event full day.
I'm taking a shower this morning and I look out the window, I see this guy walking through my yard. I say What The Fuck! So run out there in my robe. It was a new meter reader for the electric company. Didn't seem right to me, Usually its a woman and she comes closer to the 20th, besides recently we all got new meters so they don't have to visit each house. The new meters send them the info. He said they are all not working yet and leaves. I call the electric company and they confirmed but now a stranger has seen my grow.
So, i'm sitting there having my coffie lookin at them and I notice the Santa Cruz is a lighter color then the rest.
I take a close look at the trichs and see like 90% cloudy. I get to thinking if she was not there the miticide in the fogger would be able to travel up into the canopy. Also if I get ripped off at least I got something. So, Santa Cruz took one for the team.
I chopped her down, manicured and hung the buds in the cab. Took about 4 hours with scissors.
Don't look like much but then she was the smallest girl in there so she didnt get much light.
Next I sealed up the green house.
Im not fucking around this time. It took a while but she is as sealed up as I can get it. Set off the fogger around 8 pm. In 12 hours the circulating fans will go on. I turned off the intake fan for now. I expect temps to be in the low 50's tonight and low 70"s tomorrow.
If I only did this yesterday that guy would not have seen them. I keep telling myself there must be lots of yard grows this year. Arrgh!

if i were you that guy wouldnt have had the chance to explain himself, he wouldve become part of a compost pile in my yard. now for my guess on weight from what i seen im guessin 12oz and you can hold me to that. cant wait to find out how that smokes.
I didn't even stop to grab anything, I fucking slipped in the kitchen and almost landed on my ass. Got out there right when he was leaving. Ya, it dont look like that much up close man, my guess would be much less. Im thinkin maybe 3 oz's three or less. I bet it is gonna be awesome smoke though.

no way only 3 oz atleast double that. take a pic with a tape measure in there so we can get a better idea of size.
