Ya you bet. Hoping to transplant today into 4" pots and then get them into my house and around 80 degrees. Then once my room is sanitized and bug free bring them back.

I was fortunate enough to get a bad case of broad mites!!!! Going to chop my room down this weekend. Then doing a full clean and heat treatment as well as co2 and pesticides!!! Want those fuckers gone for good!!!

My seedlings have been transplanted into 4" pots now and are now in 80-85 degree temps.

I just got thru them nasty russet bastards thats one of the reasons I started these beans in a dif location. Gotta nuke that shit and then blast em with 120f thats what finally made them disappear. I havent seen a egg larvae or adult in 2 weeks since the 120f cook.

So you had the same shit as me huh??? Fuck those little bastards!!! I'm going to heat treat my rooms. Going to get the rooms up to 125 degrees for 3 hours. Plus I'm going to heat the rooms using propane that way the bugs get a nice high dose of co and co2. Then after that going to clean rooms with bleach and water. Then bomb rooms with pylon bombs. Then I'm going to treat all vegging plants to rotations of avid and forbid. Plus heat treat rooms every 2 weeks. If after all that I still lose my crops to bm's I will forever give up growing!!!!!! :tiphat:

Looking forward to seeing some update pics!!!

The H&G seem to be a little bigger but the aptus plants are thicker. No conclusion yet just bumped up the nutes and they have greened up nice over night
Im thinking of throwing them in some 3 gallon smart pots but I cant til I get at least the veg room built. Almost done then Ill blast em with light

The test is canceled. Its gonna be to hard for a first time helper not to fuck up the watering when they start going thru the water. I wanna do it right with clones which I will in a few weeks.
So far the Aptus kicks ass Im using it in a different setup with cuts on a 4x8 table and there blasting off

6 days outta the cloner fed H&G base thru top feed dtw and hand fed Aptud once a week almost tripled in size
