HellaFella420's choice to use native soil will go a long ways towards protecting his plants. Imagine a cloud of insects flying overhead. HF's plants will blend in with the other native plants, while next door some plants grown in non native soil will look considerably more attractive. Remember that, just like top predators, insects don't try to take the strongest. They prey on the weakest.

Sorry. That is complete and utter rubbish. You are emphatically incorrect in this reply. Mites are not apex predator species. Quite the opposite. Mites prey on a multitude of plant species. They will dine on your best and worst plants alike. They do not care if they are grown in native soil or $500 a yard potting mix. They do not care if they feed on Cannabis or a long list of other plant species, like blackberries. Seriously... In Southern Oregon in particular, you are going to get broad mites, several species of spider mites, and hemp russet mites all dining on Cannabis plants, healthy or not.

Also of late is the issue of the spreading phylloxera root aphids. They feed on the roots of self rooted grape plants in vineyards, as well as Cannabis. They are a growing problem in Oregon and California.

Weird, I didn't "" that instance of "hemp" the forum did that automagically?

Yeah, this forum italicizes a lot of key words for some reason.

Good that you have a fogger. The mites are here, waiting. I use Avid early on, and then flip to Neem and Aza later.

Sorry for such a lack of updates, I don't live there myself and haven't visited in about 35 days now, been taking care of things remotely.



So I'm pretty excited to see what things have turned into while I've been gone. Finger crossed!


Headed back up to Oregon later this afternoon!


Here's a couple picture I forgot to upload earlier..


This is the definition of a "Hill Dog!"

Meet Chiquita!

At this point I had met her like 5 minutes ago, all this monster wants is LOVE..

Mom's definitely aren't ideal for flowering out. But they were there, free, and gonna get chopped down anyway!

Filled out a bit!

This is actually 2x plants that have grown together, forget now what they were, slightly different shades of green is the only way I noticed!

Black Lime Reserve I think these were?

Blueberry Muffin: always a fast finisher, its already on the way. Weird growth pattern, really downswept leaves, very stiff purpleish stems

Gelato LOVIN' the hot weather

Gelato Row crop!
