If its caterpillars go BT. I have used Neem as a soil drench during veg. Worst i have had are fungus gnats at very low levels. Had no probs with Neem but never sprayed it on the foliage.

My 2c worth. Doing my first exclusively LED grow at the moment. Going to flip 12/12 in a couple of days. :) Using the Mars Hydro TSW2000 in a 4x4 tent. Due to some hospital time :( after a pushbike accident this grow has been very hands off. Oft gone a whole week relying on the gravity...

Currently doing a grow which is my first that will only use an LED. Happy with things so far and will flip to 12/12 for flowering at 50 days. Keen to see if i get a satisfactory result as the HPS setup i was using just used way too much electricity. Hopefully be able to work out yield in...

https://cannabis-med.org/ Hopefully the link above posts ok. Was a useful paper i found on decarbing and extractions that may be of interest.

Current pics. :) Above 3 are under the MarsHydro TSW2000 Above is from my last grow under 2 HPS and a burple Same phone camera. Very different color. Will be interesting to see the result.

Sorry Magnus. Never had weed lab tested as not possible here without getting busted. Also, part of the process i go through decarboxylates the weed. Converts most of the THCA to THC by putting it in 120 degrees C for an hour. Is your lab tested weed tested before decarbing or after...

This time me using a MarsHydro TSW 2000, Very much need to cut power costs as against the 2 x 400W HPS on dimmable ballasts, with an Apollo 6 LED Grow Light - True Watt 209W, i used last time. That was 1009W full up :( . TSW 2000 should only draw about 300W. Had some odd circumstances...

Day 42 of veg. Hi all. Been out of it for a few weeks..a week of that literally. :( Had a bit of a prob on the way home from work and stacked the bike about 3 weeks ago. Electric pushbike, normal commute home. Got to hospital that afternoon (a monday) and by tuesday not able to form words...

Day 1: Just put in 25 fem seeds (from hermis) from the last grow for germination. Will only plant up 4-8 but want to get an idea of germination rate. Soil and watering setup mainly same same as last time. Lined the pots with plastic flywire this time instead of hessian. Think the hessian...

So, not the best of grows but done for now. Dried to the point stems snap rather than bend. 103g of buds @ 25.75g'plant for 0.865g / day. For now, all in glass jars to cure Have rather large bag of trim and leaf to do tincture or butter with as well. Anyway, if mods can shift this to...

"Are you running home made seeds next time? " Yup. Thats all i got. :) Have a stock of regular (50/50 male/female) for this variety. Next grow i think will do a "spacebox" grow on the side to refresh that stock. Should get good numbers of female seed off this grow as all these plants...
