Hey every one I'm fano man I don't know exactly what to do but I'm. Gradually learning what not to do... I've had 2 bouts with botrytis Wpm, thrips white fly, spidermites , aphids fungus gnats root bound humidity issues heat issues just general air exchange issues....got a backer he got cold feet bout 4 hlg 600 v2 rspecs built 4 custom sammy f series x 4 gen 3 1120s on a hlg 480 2100 custom 2 inch heatsinks frame I made.... I had a tits room 4x 4 inch fan 1 can 2 exhausting 1 equalizing rooms..... had 2 separate 10x 10 rooms one 12 hr 1 18hrs.all day.....any way I've started with HPS and MH CFL supplementation and now I'm dialed in ...light...check ....100% organic check pest control check ... well still open to suggestion actively fighting second wave of spidermites I hit em with the plagues acid 3ph water.... can't get alchohol....anywhere from Coronavirus ....went mighty wash captain Jack's dead bug powder....prevasyn by general hydro. Bad ass shit there capsasyn extract (pepper spray oh and it gets strong fast 1/2 teaspoon makes a whole sprayer ....it also has garlic oil and soybean oil... I also do a round of dawn and fatty acid insecticidal soap as the main knock down... u can't get rid of them any other way u must switch up they adapt then you got a real problem resistant mites suck..any way after the main kill weeks yes weeks of diligence and dedication to kill large population then I woke up one day and it jus dawned on me if I kill 98% which I know bbn I didn't kill all cuz they came back very sporadically and I while killed everything and thought of the shop vac ....best idea I had because I was in 8th week of flower and spraying anything was out the question I fought them from week 3 to week 6.5 redicules.... now when I see evidence of mites I get the vacuum and literally suck damn near whole tops right into the tube let it bounce around a little .....no fingers get ripped off leaves almost seem to like it but I've watched the mites loose there grip and go down the vac hose which I wanted to see I would see a leaf with some damage locate the mites... grab the vac suck the leaf in examine...mites gone... good way to hold them off to finish up a harvest of you must hold on. a lil longer I noticed them coming back so I cut the 4 plants that had the majority I gave them a h202 bud wash and a nice rinse and hung up side down seen the few remaining congregating at stem tops very true for those who never witnessed this ... suck em up with the vac that's when I watched then actually loose grip and let go and the peroxide kills all molds and other foreign objects and undesirables check into it it almost helps dry quicker in my opinion and u get a cleaner bud rinse after u dunk in h202...that's my current situation ....30 in flower 20 in veg 11 moms diff strains all 11 loads of stuff to remember I'm leaning back toward this one called recon fast flower chunkier stinker then any thing I've ever purchased like fruity gas alot like Jack harrer taste and smell can't go wrong with jack....20200515_174623.jpg20200516_125937.jpg20200516_125714.jpgoh and I converted a bunk bed into a super growing machine holds 2 hlg 600s perfect and my veg room is my water heater laundry room down sized a little since I relocated ...i really wish my old room with my perpetual got off the ground it was 10k$ set up pitched floor all lined in 30vynil it was nice I'll make a journal later but gotta do what yyou can
