I recently made the same mistake with neem oil and my plants aren't happy about it.
Must have mixed it a little stronger than usual... :eyesmoke:

New growth is a little fried but I think they'll be fine.

Germ rate was 100% and seedlings went 2/3 girls on Maverick. Both got topped and a few weeks of veg. Someone mentioned a few weeks ago that Greenpoint seems to be very ph sensitive, and it seems to be true. My problem was not with feeding, but when I sprayed with neem oil (I didn't measure at the time but guessing the ph was 7.5 or higher), and when I sprayed the plants almost all the Greenpoint plants got severely burned. They got burned a few times before I realized what was happening, and the Mavericks took the worst of it. Literally lost most of their leaves at the start of flower. So I stuck them in the back corner of the tent with the weakest light and just finished flower to see how they turned out. Yield wasn't great, under an oz on each plant. So they struggled and the bud yield wasn't high but the quality was superb. I'm sure with better treatment the yield would be even better. Both phonos were similar in growth and structure but one was a little more potent and tasty--it packed a little more bang to the punch. Not much stretch on mine. Mine liked to stay bushy.

As for taste and smell, I wish I were better at being able to describe it. I like funky/OG gas smells and the Maverick stood out both in taste and smell. Wish I had some more to refresh the memory and give you a better description.

Is the 311 in your name for the band? Also a big fan of 311!

What is your guys mixing ratio's? I've mixed mine 2 tablespoons to a gallon without issues but I also either pull mine out of direct light or raise my lights several feet.

I have burnt the shit out of them spraying essential oils with lights on though, in hindsight the oil takes longer to evaporate than most other stuff and probably magnifies much more intensely.

I'm growing Sundance and I haven't noticed any PH fragility. I keep my PH at 6 usually, but I had to ignore my room for 3 days and it got down to 5.3 and my seedlings look very happy still.

It seems like everyone in here uses neem oil. I stopped that when I stopped being organic. I can't stand the smell or the residue it leaves on the plant. I just use commercial grade spinosad from dow chemicals. The littlest amount kills everything and most of the time I don't even need to spray my plants and they grow outside in the tropics. The bugs just stay away. I also put spinosad in my reservoir sometimes during veg to kill whatever might be in my tray or grow medium.

I used 2 tablespoons because I wanted to wipe out some thrips that seem to have become resistant to spinosad.
Normally I only use 1 tablespoon to prevent PM.

My neem mixing ratio is 3 teaspoons raw pressed neem + 1 teaspoon karanja + 1 tablespoon liquid seaweed nutes + yucca extract. I didn't used to ph it. My tap water comes out between 7.2-7.6 and think the oil takes it higher than that. I didn't used to ph the neem mix after a conversation with a tech from Sierra Naturals regarding SM-90, and that dude explained the higher ph helps kill fungus and that the high ph was on purpose. He recommended not lowering ph for best results. I assumed neem worked the same way and for a long time I didn't adjust ph. But because of the the problems with leaf burn I have recently been ph'ing the neem to 6.5 and the plants are not showing stress like they used to after the application.

I would recommend never spraying while the lights are on. At lights out, I take each plant outside and spray it there, then bring it back into the tent. It dries out overnight and no lights hit the oil.

fyi, Monterey and pre-packaged neem products do not work. The only stuff that works for me is raw pressed neem. I also use Spinosad in the yard when bugs get out of hand. It works great and kills everything for sure. I have never had to spray the tent with it because (so far) the neem has worked at keeping the bad bugs off.

Hey all. I wanted to share my Greenpoint experience so far. I discovered Greenpoint because of the low prices and the credit card processing. Then I got addicted to the auctions. I bought so many because so many folks in this thread said that Greenpoint is quality--and I just wanted to throw my opinion out there.

I've been smoking Greenpoint for the last month, and without a doubt-- it is the best smoke I have ever grown, and some of the best I have ever had in my life. I am a weed snob and live in Los Angeles and for years have taken pride in finding the best bud at the dispensaries. Greenpoint is better. Don't take my word for it--my friends who also shop dispensaries say that Greenpoint is "better than top shelf" and "better than anything at the shop!"

How much Star Dawg is too much? IMHO, there is no such thing. I have smoked 19 Greenpoint strains and each strain has unique high and flavor. The Star Dawg is always present--its like adding banana to a smoothie. You can always taste the different flavors that the banana is mixed with, but the banana flavor is always there. Star Dawg is the same. And for me, it checks all the boxes. Great head buzz and body high.

The strains I have smoked are Bandit Breath, Blizzard Bush, Bodega Bubblegum, Boomtown, Cookies n Chem, Copper Chem, Cowboy Kush, Deputy, Doc Holiday, Eagle Scout, Evergreen, Hibernate, Iron Horse, Jelly Pie, Maverick, Night Rider, Pioneer Kush, Raindance, and Sky Dwellar. My favorite strain is Maverick followed closely by Copper Chem, Boomtown and Doc Holiday. My girl's favorites are Iron Horse, Raindance and Jelly Pie. And another friend says Night Rider and Cowboy Kush are her favs. So basically everyone loves the Greenpoint weed. Its better than dispensary weed and each person has different favorites.

Bugs as in skeeters and gnats??

Those are the worst I've ever seen them in my area this year!! If that's the case I'll spray my yard.

I went out to the river bottom this morning trying to get some holes dug for some outdoor plants and there was no chance in hell! Was repeatedly completely soaking myself in 40% deet bug spray plus holding a Thermacell up to the back of my neck.
Them bastards wern't even phased. When I finally got to the spot and had to stop walking they were flying up nostrils in my mouth, ears, eyes, wiping layers of them off my neck,,, took my bug spray and soaked my neck and upper body for a good 20 seconds then couldn't breath cause i bombed the air so badly. Had to take off b lining back out of the area. Then trying to wipe the skeeters out of my eyes got the deet in them and couldn't even see where I was walking.

Fucking madness.

Im trying out Mega Crop for the first time in my rdwc. 2 weeks into flower and can see the good with it but am not sure how they are going to finish with such a high Nitrogen level. Going to use a bloom boost to help the ratios at the end but almost 10% N the last few weeks is much higher than I'd like to be. Shits convienant though. Thinking of using MC through week 4 of flowering then switching to 4-20 for the rest in the next cycle.

I would be carful about the switching of nutes while in use.

I have done it other times

But the only time ive had root rot in almost 10 years was because i switched from

RAW by npk to the 4 20

I dont think the extra kelp and other biostims played well together.

Interestingly though the only one that got rot where ones that i used some bleach on to help sterilize the roots with the first res.....BIG MISTAKE

it was great for the first 3 days smelled like the pool in my res lol but after 3 days the snot came around so i dumped flushed and reset with hydro guard.

After a week or 2 all was well

But i dont think ill try bleach again mabey h202 :)

Anyways it might not happen to you just didnt want you to lose out if it does .

Just my 2

It seems there are a lot of real earthy, musky, organic living odors that are very fascinating until they are a bit too much at which point wrenching and gagging and dry heaves may overcome any coolness one thought they posessed. Just like that damn last word fucks with my dyslexic world.

Beware guys you can do the same thing with pyretherenes of all types as well. I used little pyrethreum bombs in an emergency a few times and on one crop I ruined half the grow with same symptoms you guys had/have. I don't use chemicals at all anymore but for those that do don't ever bomb without very good ventilation and know your risking things regardless.
