Those plants are absolutely rocki'n! I do a lot of that stuff ( organic natural shit) with my outdoor and have been very lucky as you can see. However, indoor has been another story. Indoors I have had mega pest problems both above and below the surface with home made soil.My question is; do you sterilize your soil? If so;how?
I'm hardcore about pests. I rely on mechanical means to keep my soil pest free. Before it hits your garden area.
Take your bag of soil and put it in an old pillowcase. Place it in a cooler or bin in an mess appropriate area. Pour 3 gallons of boiling water through it. Let it sit 10 minutes. Close pillowcase firmly, let drain. The pillow case keeps out adult bugs, the egg layers. I no longer get thrips or gnats. This soil can be stored indoors. Always sealed in pillowcases.
I use smartpots and I top my soil with a layer of weedblock landscape fabric, then I top with a 20:1 mixture of gnatgnix and diatamcious earth. It's labor intense, but I'm bug free.
I also spray spinosyn D , aka monterey garden spray, 3x in early veg, @ 25ml per quart.
I use heavy 16 foliar 3x in veg.
An I suppliment with bayer aspirin @ 325mg per gallon 3x in early veg, for healthy immune systems.
I spray nothing on plants after week 3-4 of veg.

Here's a few shots. The pistols really stay around forever on this strain, trichomes are pretty much where I want them.
How do you upload the big pictures like that?
Nice !
Once you upload but before you post reply , look next to the picture below your text box, there will be a full image option.

The longer you let it mature , the longer the medicinal effects last. But she's frosty as can be. Very nice.

The CSI: HUMBOLDT tester run was a success. Had some nice phenos of unreleased chemdawg1, bubba, and urkle strains. Nothing super stand out. But I have lots of berry funk rosin from the run. IMG_20160216_163448.jpg IMG_20160214_084135.jpg
