Welcome to the Tuesday update with Grandpa's Moonshine and some odds and ends!
Since it's listed first, GM on flip day 56:
I tied it up more this morning because it was starting to tip over as it dried out during the day, which is why there is a pile of stones on the left side of the pot! The top flowers are solid and everything is incredibly sticky. It still needs a gallon/day and I've been spraying with .25% citric acid and BT, both weekly. Other than that, I'm just waiting for it to slow down in drinking.
Onto the other plant in the summer grow, the 5 KIller Cookies still won't get down to 62% RH or thereabouts.
I had it in a box with the mini-dehumidifier for 4 hours on Sunday and only managed to get it to 66%.
I'll give it another go tonight and see if I can drop it more. One day of Santa Ana winds would be helpful right about now!
Here's a combination pic that shows my collection of solo cup clones, along with a test spray of neem oil in the heat of the noonday sun:
There are three ALKs in that cup, three 5KC's in that cup, and two GM's in the top one of the two. This weekend I think I'll do some culling, as I really don't need all these clones hanging around.
Anyway, about 30 minutes later, the leaves were dry and there wasn't a spot of damage on new or old leaves on any of the plants:
I know that some folks say that spraying in full sunlight will burn the leaves but I haven't found that to be true. I haven't tested it under LEDs, but I will this winter when only the tent will be active.
That's it from me! I hope your week is off to a good start and the days are still sunny and warm in this first week of autumn.

as for burning leaves i find it happens during the heat of the day if you get water droplets on the leaf , if you have a wetting agent in the spray that spreads the water rather than bead it i don't see it being an issue as you don't get a magnifying bubble of water concentrating the light .
Thank you GDB!
