cultivatedc:it gets real windy, it was storming yesterday and i heard a few trees fall luckily it wasnt near the greenhouse
the diy greenhouse is a super effective way to control wind, rain and even bugs, ive already built a cage to go around the plant but inside the greenhouse to protect it from squirrels or birds if they were to force there way through the plastic, the greenhouse will even allow your ladybugs to stay longer, mainly because theres only limited places for them to escape
went and checked on the plant a few minutes ago and it was atleast 10 degrees cooler than outside temps
the plant is looking so much better today from its watering yesterday with a water ph where it can
THRIVE NOT SURVIVE,
drainage ph was 6.9 today so its better than its been its entire life
will probably upload a picture tomorrow...

cultivatedc: i use diatomaceous earth for bigger bugs like slugs,roaches, ants, earwigs and any other small crawling insect, and dyna-gro pure neem oil to control aphids, thrips, spidermites and any other tiny bugs that work there way into your roots and kill from the inside out
both of these products are being used by people everywhere for outdoor use, my plant is on top of the diatomaceous earth in the greenhouse, i have it all over the bottom to kill any outside intruder hahaha

cool thanks for the info - i kinda need something to put around it and was reading about using coffee so thought i would post it here too

coffee will work but there are drawbacks from using coffee, it attracts prey and not far behind them is a predator on the hunt,
i just want everything to stay as far away from the greenhouse as possible,
ive even placed some small game traps, like will crush the foot of anything up to 30 lbs theres probably 5 set up right now only a foot or two from the greenhouse, all the traps are staked to the ground so if something does get stuck it will be stuck until i remove it or the animal decides to chew through its on leg.
its not my goal to harm the animals but they have plenty of places to go other than my greenhouse
I ONLY HAVE ONE PLANT SO I HAVE TO PROTECT IT

DINAFEM CHEESE WEEK 7
pictures above were taken about 9:00 this morning, everything seems to be looking good, besides the 2 bottom fan leaves I just cant get back to color, so if they die and fall off then good cause im tired of seeing those ugly fan leaves lol..
looks like I need to do some more LST'ing because this plant has completely filled in and now some things aren't getting light, will probably be transplanting in a few days
did I mention its 84 degrees and its only 10:15?
NUTES:
FOX FARM TRIO - followed as scheduled
FLORANOVA GROW - 1 tsp/gal to thicken up secondary foliage and increase veg. production
EPSPOM SALT - 1 tbsp scratched into top of soil to maximize Chlorophyll production and improve magnesium
[Dyna-Grow pure neem oil applied as directed]-PEST CONTROL

umhhh the day starts hot ! i think it's not a big mess if you just loose two leaves. Not an expert advice of course but after so many reads, i didn't see any lady died in this case.
Good luck for your training !

DINAFEM CHEESE WEEK 7
used about 4 cups watering the plant today and it had some coming out the bottom for a few seconds so that's enough, im watering every 3rd day now thanks to the greenhouse, its been working wonders protecting the plant from minor problems for outdoor grows.
I will be transplanting either tomorrow or the next day

DINAFEM CHEESE START OF WEEK 8
Nice bit of white hairs starting to show up..
Still have around 60 more days of veg left so I'm not even sure how big this plant is going to be by harvest time in mid October
Decided not to transplant til next week, hoping to get a clone or two this week
