quick back from vacation update...had a blast but now its a bitch gettin back in cruise control....after about 10 days gone i came home to see tht i have mites...they devoured a blockhead plant that was in flower,and luckily for me it seems that one is a mite magnet.all the newest in flower were effected,veg as well but not too bad in there compared to flower.luckily the jack the rippers were finished up and had pretty much no damage at all.
i nuked w avid as soon as i saw them,i know ill be dealing w them once a mont for the next few months before i get them totally eradicated but this aint my 1st rodeo so im not gonna let it stress me too bad until i need to.ive been thinking about trashing the mixed group in flower but i think im gonna give them a couple weeks and see if they snap into gear for me....i didnt take pics of the mite damage yet,i should have took one of the blockhead but i was busy spraying them....if u would have seen it it would have made u cringe,has me trippin just because i know the battle im in for w these bastards....fuckin hangin my head in shame over here,nothing makes u feel like an inadequate grower then something like mites in ur room.especially after leaving the grow for over a week to vacation,shit sucks to come home to yo.

on a better note,i have a second 24k btu a/c im getting ready to install,idk f ill run them both,i think w better venting for the heat from 1 i can cool my room w just one,but i figure a brand new one wont hurt,and one on deck is never a bad ideaa ya know.

also like i said,the jtr were done,got some pics of the fruits of my labor,i think i couldve done better if the heatwave hadnt hit so hard,had to turn a few lights off for a few days during the 100+ degree temps...still not too bad.this is 25 of them,took about 9 hours to trim,gotta love the trimpro rotor...you can see thats a second rubbermaid that has buds in it still.

small update,got some pics of the group tht had the mites so u can see the damage it caused to both yield and to the trich coverage ,between the mites and the heatwave these ones in flower look like shit,but the mites are all dead for now,ill be treating once a month for a long time,probably for always in veg as a preventative,the borg is some scary shit yo.hate them fuckers.

start w some veg shots,they dont look bad at all,not perfect but i aint trippin,all in due time.

TK ready for the flip,kept them in 3 gallon pots,no need for 5's w them im guessin.

keep in mind tht i know these look like shit,u can see the mite damage on the plants leafs and the stress caused by them...i figure i showw all my good chit i should keep it real and show the fucked up shit too hehehe,every one has a speedbump now n then.

jack cheddar,im gonna cut 20 of these and grow then natural,when u top these they go even more nuts then the uk cheese does,but as u can see the sugar on these aint no joke.

T, its good to see you back around, I was starting to miss your updates. Anyway, I find it funny that you are saying your girls look bad, and for you I guess its not up to par, but if most people had plants that look like yours they would be calling it a success. It just speaks to your abilities to grow the good herb. I hope all else is well and your vacation time was rejuvenating.
