I think spinosad lasts 4 weeks. It works immediatly, but not as a central nervous system toxin. They eat it and they stop eating and just sit there until they starve and fall off. You will see them for awhile. You might mist pre trichome buds if you like. It is odorless, unlike BT

gnatrol has BT too, but it's a different strain i think. (var. israelensis i think). it's a dry powder and doesn't smell until it sits for a few days and goes anaerobic. wonder if it'll work.

Bonide bt stinks and bt last only two days. Had I used spinosad from the start, I wouldn't have lost six zips to worms

Morning bikers.

Got eight LOK's transplanted from 5" squares into 3.4 gallon airpots last night. They had been needing that for some time now.

Took dans advice and mixed DE in with my coco and gave them a generous sprinkling of Roots Organism mycos.

Trimmed up the tops and bottoms cause I over vegged these as well. They look nice now.

Todays project is to transplant all my Sour Pineapples and SPG's from their 7 ounce solo cups to 1 gallon pots.

Brrrrrr, it's chilly y'all. 95 two days ago low 60's today. Which way to the cider mill?

Edit to add: Oops, looks like my Sour Pineapple have been in the 7 ounce cups for over eight weeks now. Definitely need to get to them today!

Yeah its a whopping 66 degrees here today too . my kinda weather :)
the DE should greatly reduce yer bugs 3rd . it kills anything in the coco !!! just dehydrates them to nothingness , plus its made of crushed oyster shell i think & its like crawling through glass shards & just tears up their little bodies . win win !

well i'm past the 3 day death mark on the newly cut clones . they're all still as healthy as the day i cut them :woohoo:


mornin ...... what do i call you guys now ? bikers don't seem right , knights are retired .....:thinking:
the motley mob sounds good , but can't use that one alot .

Oh well .... good morning gang :tiphat:

how about the "dirty uncles"?:bigeye:

well that was a funny ride,water was running 2-3 inches deep on some of the roads i went down,some pretty good sized puddles here and there...it was peoples reactions that was funny,like i was doing something extraordinary....like i said to the cigarette store guy...as long as no sandy water gets in my vagina its fine,it is just water after all....

Yeah, I'm hoping the DE will help. I'm going full warfare with these damn gnats.

Watered in nematodes as well last night, will repeat as necessary. Bombed the veg room last night to get rid of the fliers, will do the flower room tonight. Squito dunks in all barrels although I'm sure my gnats are now immune to bti.

Would use neem oil but I can't stand the smell. Think I'll order some neem cake though to mix in the coco.

Is it me ? or is this a bad year for bugs ??? seems like everybodys dealin with some kind of critter !!! :dunno:

I think ya might have killed off the nematodes by adding them to the coco as well 3rd . that DE is some pretty gnarly stuff .

:lightning:well,that was amusing....at least i managed to get 15 miles in today....back feels much looser and less painful....got frickin soaked,wrong jacket choice...thank god for high tech fabrics though,i was still plenty warm....all that to get two 1/2 inch elbows so i can make a screen!:crazy:

going out to watch a local mountain bike race this sunday,only about 12 miles from the house..gonna toss a lawn chair and a thermos of coffee in the trailer and grab some donuts on the way...i may just for amusements sake get really whorish and really comfort it up and drag the coleman 2 burner stove up and make breakfast:biggrin:

i only mostly eat healthy,i have a bad sweet tooth...it just that the bulk of my diet is relatively good,low in fat,low sodium...all that kind of stuff,and in addition to spending at least an hour a day in the saddle im rarely actually sitting still for long so my metabolism is pretty jacked up...an hour pulling the trailer can burn an extra 600 calories,even just a couple of hours of that is like burning an entire days worth of calories....so it gives you a certain amount of leeway....cyclist in general can pack away the calories like no ones business...
