There is deer here but not many as there being hunted all the time.Seen a muntjac mini dear near my plot but it soon scampered when it heard me.I usually take a dog, ireckon the scent keeps them away.

yep my helper takes his dog and brush combings off her to spread about the site... it seem's to work well ...we've got red dear and roe deer here and are not hunted so their rife ..

it's supposed to rain tomorrow so i might not need to go down and water them ..which will give me a break ..did you make some garlic spray for your girl's ?;)

Rain would be nice! still to get my garlic but i have a recipe-

1 ground up clove of garlic
2 tablespoon of fairly liquid
1 tablespoon ground pepper
chilli sauce if handy
2 litre water

Should do the trick, apply with scooshy bottle

I wouldn't spray on buds though or late in flower

No buds yet still another 2ish months veg, hoping for a few days rain soon as it's a pain in the ass wading through thick vegetation with a watering can.Theres rivers and streams near my plots incase i need to water but i'd rather let nature do the work.:good::good:

Looking real nice guys! Best of luck. My plants near Loch Ness many moons ago vegged awesome but didnt really get into full flower before end oct and the miserable weather...
Hope your autos come out good.

I am interested in the biobizz leaf cover thing. Has anyone here tried it??

I had major mould issues last season and found the plants with good airflow and away from rotting blackberries were much healthier :yes:

I also used aspirin in the water, neem oil spray, green cure spray and lacto b (but bit too late). I think these measures used from beginning of flower would give em a fighting chance... :2cents:

:smoweed:

ps. A good layer of mulch around yer plants JGP but not touching the stem would conserve lots of water...

where did you get the green cure from i can't find it anywhere.... i would't pay the ££ for that bud rot stuff ..way over priced for my like'n

hi jgp another 2 months for veg ... that's a bit scary ... you should try auto's (mines are day 42 and showing buds ) have you got typhoon's? as these should finish in time ;)

A mulch is a good idea thanks silver.Rocket i've grew auto's before mainly lr2 and i'm growing autoAK this year.Most of my strains are fast finishing dutch strains most are semi auto's.I don't have typhoon but would like to try it nextyear as it seems to be super fast finisher.

I got my greencure from ebay. Had to order from US. Then i found a similar product designed for roses in my local garden centre that contains same active ingredient. Doh! But have enough for quite a few seasons now. :D

I also found the plants in smaller holes yielded less but finished earlier.

Have fun!

what is the active ingredient silversurfer in this green cure so i an look out for it ...:)

found it here's a definiation Potassium bicarbonate is an effective fungicide against powdery mildew, allowed for use in organic farming

so does it just protect against powdery mildew ?

ooop sorry i thought they were all semi auto's .... i grew passion #1 form dutch passion year's ago.
it's mean't to be semi auto but did'nt finish here because of the mold and deer eating the cola's ... all my fault for not protecting them enuff... they went out at the end of may if i remember right but the mold got them by october never mind the deer ;(
