Cool man, good info. I figure two weeks left in flower. I guess I did it backwards by using the attain first.How long do u have left in flower? u dont want to bomb too much and leave unwanted residue on the buds...
Pyrethum bombs are legit but leave heavy residue. the same brand makes a follow up bomb called "Attain TR" which in theory does the same job but leaves half the residue. Its been suggested for mite control during flower. itll take out all pests as well, thats just wat my research has led me to.
sorry to do multiple posts but when i swing by ur thread here on RIU it takes a while to catch up lol.
-im tellin u mang... come over and join us at thcfjoin the darkside baha
Dude, post as much as you want.
No shit, more good info. If something happens I will remember not to shoot first.
Yea, max is still a pup and is in a pen in the yard until he learns not to dig in the lawn. Even after that hes there just to make noise, not attack, Its not in him. I wanted an attack/guard dog at first then I got to thinking about it over all, 99% of the time hes there to be a pal. A member of the family. Whats it gonna be like when I have company, what about possible accidents. Well, I didnt think of all that shit but the ol lady did and I agreed. So basically I got surveillance and a lovable noise maker. Whadda gonna do mang. LOL.
I mean would this scare you?
Its not like hes alone, his pen is attached to where I hang out most of the time.
This thing I made keep him buzy for hours.
So he hangs out there and gets supervised visits to the rest of the yard couple times a day.
Well, supervised most of the time.

Man those are the WORST absulte bud eating bugs. Im in war right now. Im sure as hell not winning.
Every 2 hours i guess i cheak for em. And cruz really? chop there heads off? i burn em slowlly in a pile!
Its amazing how something so small can make you SO MAD. And something so small make you lose LARGE amounts
of money?? But i guess im kinda controlling it. most my buds are safe, lost alot though : (

Right on man, Yea Today is a good day.good to hear cruz! yeh iv been stalking your journal for a while now.
Looks like It worked. I checked through the girls with a glass and no movement from the mites at all.
I think the first 1/2 shot of the fogger down low pushed them up because I swear there are millions of them up top yesterday, well they are still there but they look to be dead mites. Looks like I won that battle, I figure I got three days before the eggs hatch.
I shook the girls a bit and looked for cats, found about 6 small dead ones, Nothing like that monster I found, again under the blueberry.
There are dropping on another blueberry cola, I looked but couldn't find anything.
Got up on a stool where the Santa Cruz was to see up there.
Left,
Right,
I used that bird netting inside the 2x4's to keep the lower buds off the panels.
Right,

Casey Jones lower stuff,
and under her,
Im taking a second look at adding a co2 system. I dropped the idea because I felt they were getting enough in the air but I see how it could be a detrimental to insect at the same time beneficial to the plant. No brainer.

Whats up Cruzer, yeah the BT stuff works pretty well, but it is a foliar spray, which makes mold a possibility without proper ventilation. Also, it doesnt kill on contact, the cats have to eat the bt, and then they die in a day or two. That monster you got the close up of has been living up there for quite awhile it looks like.
Missed this post, Yea and I thought I hated spidermites. These little fuckers dont mess around with the leaf, they go for the throat. So yea I cut his head off. To good for him huh? Oh well, good to hear most of your buds are safe. Thanks for your input. Right after I read your last post about cats I went out there with scissors and lopped an inch off the top of that cola. If I hadnt I got a feeling I would be in a lot worse shape.
That sucker was homesteading.
Yea, thats why I went with the fogger and picked through the buds. I have had moldy buds before.
I made a call and will have CO2 by Monday. Figure I will use that till finish. That and some luck!

i want to clarify about the post before when i mentioned using attain. the tip is actually from Integra (read bak and saw him give u the same advice a while ago)
-pyrethum is the main bomb u use during veg or first weeks of flower. the Attain product is made by the same manufacturer that suggests u use Attain as a follow up bomb a couple weeks after u release the initial pyrethum bomb. hope that makes sense. anyways the point again that Int said is the attain leaves less residue on the flowers if theyve formed.
I know the owner of cannachemistry.com and hes out in LA. he will be testing my current crop when i harvest next week. the lab tests allow them to see residue, pesticides, pests, and get data %s on all the diff types of chemicals in cannabis. so they give the most important break down on a certificate that tells u THC/CBD/CBN % so the collectives and patients know what works best and if the meds are clean. point of this story is i used a pyrethum bomb about 4weeks in i think? cant remember. so if it leaves any residue ill let u know.
also dont get me wrong about my pitties. they would most likely lick u to death. mines still a pup too but sumone unknown entering ur yard is gonna think twice with any good sized dog barking at them. max will do the trick. i think everyone should have a dog and make them part of ur family.
anyways bro glad to hear the good news and hope things work out for a solid harvest.

Glad to hear the little fuckers finally bit the dust. Cant get over the variety of pests you've had to deal with in such a small area. Good work and good luck. Tell max I said Hi, and give him the old at a boy tap on the back. Did you watch the survailence tape and see if the meter reader was scoping out your girls?
Yea, I would like to know the results of the test and also how long it was after the application you cut.
That would give me an idea of what I got before contacting my co-op. Does this guy test by mail?
So your buddy is a pup too? Ha! They sure do lick a lot don't they.
No kidding man, There was all kinds of stuff in there. When I took the roof off I was going to add screen to the sides of the extension but figured I would open them up to mother nature to help keep the mites in check. I didnt know she was gonna bring the whole fucking house. Yea when max snapped up that grasshopper boy made me proud, will do. Yep looked at the vids, the motion first then the rest on 16x speed. No snoopers, gonna keep checking it from now to harvest.
I added a screen,
better late then never.
