Thanks, It is my first, I'm keeping it out door. It has been on 12/12 it's whole life. It's 8 weeks old. I added some 10-10-10 pellets and I just added a ton of home made compost on top made of 3 whole zucchini, 3 yellow squash, egg shells, coffee grounds, and top soil. I think it had a heavy pree bloom because we had some over cast before the time changed to longer days. But now I noticed the side branches and top getting longer so I hope it's going back to vegg.
Do I also want to to not water on the buds? Will water wash off trikes? Will the buds on now be ready sooner? They are getting nice and shiny, they have been on now for about 3 weeks. Also my top started throwing single spiked leaves is that bad?

Threw some pix up top. I know it's no jaw dropping strain, just a lucky bag seed.

Any info or tips welcome.

I wouldn't.

Had problems using Safer...taste and smell never really leave.

Use an organic bug spray..safe even sprayed on buds. Kill Spider Mites works good..all organic and natural..

You would still have to spray with water at least 2 weeks before harvest. To get rid of taste and smell.

Last 2 weeks before harvest I would use nothing but water for bug problems...drown them..rinse them off etc.

I hate Safer..even the 3 part stuff is horrid.

And for the last week don't even use water...

i would recommend Azatrol or AzaMax. they are vegetable based (organic) kill a crapload of pests and with AzaMax they claim that you can spray up to 2 days before harvest.
although i would strongly recommend NOT to do that. i stop using it about 10-14 days before harvest in the worse case.
but it usually kills everything within 3 weeks of use, so you typically wont have any pest problems after week 3 or 4.

never have had a problem with taste lingering on my product using them he way i have stated. just read the directions like you should for anything.

G/L!

Thanks to all for so much for the dope info. (no pun intended). I realized it's an auto so I'm not going to spray any more because it's almost done. I rinsed it good with some water the next day after I sprayed so I hope it wont taste bad. smells like Gods vagina though.
