I had a very nasty bulb mite infestation in my old soil, i threw away pretty much everything that the infested soil ever touched, i tried to clean and seal everything as much as i can, i added hypoaspis miles that's supposed to be a predator bug to bulb mites, i don't know what else to do really but hope the infestation doesn't happen again and i ruin all this soil, it was a good investment so if anyone has preventative methods they know of to prevent soil bugs or bulb mites specifically, i'm all ears!

Just Lovely! Did you get pain relief or relaxing muscles or CBD medical benefits? Thanks!

Juicy Fruit Thai x Snow Lotus. A pretty rare one.

Makes you wanna dance. Intense. Really unique, euphoric. Terps remind me of going into an elevator at a doctors office building, plus a really dry sugar type of thing going on, some classic snowlotus terps and passes on more bubblegum in its progeny.

Just wanted to throw this out there in case you weren't aware : (Stratiolaelaps scimitus Womersley) Hypoaspis Miles that you order usually come packed in a bran & vermiculte mix that contains Tyrophagus Putrescentiae as a food source. This mold mite looks visually very similar to bulb mites to the naked eye, though where they are and what they're consuming is a good indicator of pest status I suppose. I'd definitely expect a diversity of soil mites when using large containers of living soil with companion plants / cover crops / mulches, which is nothing to worry about. Avoiding extremes in watering and top dressing is probably the best thing you can do to prevent problems with population imbalances. Nematodes, Rove Beetles and Hypoaspis would all be decent introductions for general pest control. Home-made vermicompost or compost will likely contain a diversity of mites that include many predators to add another layer of defense.


I can say for sure from experience that either bulb or mold mites will decimate a seedling before the cotyledon emerges. Just something to keep in mind with expensive and rare seeds. Not sure which it was because I don't have the entomology background to confidently distinguish and identify mites that look so similar. Both mites I believe have a kind of symbiotic relationship with fungus gnats and even can hitch a ride in on them.

Hypoaspis Miles & Tyrophagus Putrescentiae + a quality control sheet that might be interesting.

Hoping for that Super Silver Haze magic in my Pinball Wizard which just now we’re up potted into “warm” mix. These are trying to get bushy already even when they are still small. Leaves are a little either way from mid width and also leaves on each are a bit different from each other.

Wobbled my brother-in-law yesterday with some curing Bing!

Super Silver Hashplant is that good, good from yesteryears. Have been having a really tough time putting my finger on the smell… well, it’s catpiss. Real pungent. Tastes absolutely amazing vaped though. Dank herbal goodness. Instinctively started head bobbing to Gangstarr while my body and mind turn to liquid. Unfortunately prone to PM, but fuck it. Definitely going to be popping more F2’s or I think I may check out SSHP x Eden Transmission. Should be a beautiful matchup from my layman’s perspective.

edit: 11 SSHP x ET seeds wet.

Sometimes Cherry but not always. At the very least, they reek of Berry jelly all the way to old Black Cherry pipe tobacco. Decent siz and very powerful, some have had audio and visual effects. Make sure carbon filters are ready!

Very late reply sorry. I’ve smoke tested 5 of them. Im in a red state so no testing capability but one or two of them do seem to have some qualities that I would say are medicinal. Very relaxing day at the beach kind of smoke. Old school smell immediately took me back to my childhood smelling my uncles toking in the basement. There are definitely some nice phenos to be found

I'll have some Goji

I'll be sharing some F2 flower shots soon - within another week or so. They're in the middle of their 14 day hang dry right now.

The soil agronomist that I hired HATES the stuff, he said that he has clients that have failed for heavy metal(arsenic) in their bud. Kelp doesn't even raise micronutrient levels like "Bro Science" suggests. I started using my left over kelp as lawn fertilizer lol. Before I hired an agronomist, I was using Soil Savvy test kits from Amazon. I would get soil tests back that would show that I was very low in Mn, Zn, Cu, and B. I used kelp pretty heavy handed and retested. Sodium would go through the roof while K, Cu, and Fe would get a slight bump but I was mostly dealing with a Mn def and all of these natural inputs wasn't helping. Greensand worked the best, but it's also contaminated with lead. By the time that I was using enough rock dust, I would start getting toxic levels of containments but I'm mostly looking at kelp and azomite. I still use basalt and greensand, but not nearly at the rate that I was using before, which was around 2cups/Cu.ft(heavy handed). Anyways, I started using a lot more sulfates for my micronutrients and things are starting to work out a lot better. Before, I was using TM-7/Big-6 but wasn't really having any luck. Again, by the time that I got enough Mn in my soil, the other elements were getting out of balance. So, using Mn sulfate in my water has been a game changer for me. Hiring the soil agronomist helped me dial in my "Base saturation ratio" which I was badly over-looking and I was hyper-focused on micronutrients, but I still wasn't doing it correctly... Sorry to be so long winded, but the moral of the story is that I was using kelp to raise micronutrients, but it wasn't even doing that. Rock dust wasn't any help either with trace minerals. Getting soil tests and hiring an agronomist to help me with a soil Rx has been a game changer. I just wish that someone would have told me about this 10yrs ago, I always have to figure stuff out the hard way. The organic section wasn't much help, because most of my theories go against "Bro Science" and I was getting ridiculed for not following suit and going against the grain. However, I was watching "Future Cannabis Project" on youtube and the agronomist that I ended up hiring talked about this exact problem on the pod and I knew that I found the right guy. I feel selfish that I don't want to share his name, but I promised him that I would spread word of how he has helped me. They start talking about kelp and rock dust just before the 1hr mark, like 58min or so.
