TGA Subcool Seeds - Time Wreck

I just ordered a 32 oz bottle of Azamax off ebay for under $100. I need to sit down and figure out what ratio is for what though and I am going to stick with azamax. I was in a hurry and leaving for a day or two and fucking gnats were all over. I had some gnat off right there. That last thing I want is bugs flying all over unless they are ladybugs. lol.

I am mixing up some supersoil (one of these days) and I bought a 32 oz. bottle of Azamax and 5 gallon jug of mighty wash. They were both surprisingly cheap.

Maybe it is for the best. I just about have everything for both the tents in my office. I ordered a 4" vortex to split off for both tents, I hope it is more than enough. What should we try out first in the tents. 12-1 light vs. 18 or 24hr? Ripping off all the fan leaves? Try another soil vs. Roots maybe? lol. I have a pack of faded alien if those others don't want to act right. lol.

So believe it or not, they look much better after a few days. These look much better than the Somali Taxi Ride. I have high expectations for these. lol. I was getting ready to leave town and was being sloppy and just in a hurry. That is no way to be, and I need to leave that bullshit at the door when I am tending to the plants. I hope this embarrasing mistakes teaches me a lesson to slow my roll and think about what I am doing.
These are under a 600W MH. I believe it is one of the cheaper C.A.P. Bulbs in it, (if you call $50 cheap). Probably another week or so and I will have them under my 1000 W Hortilux MH Blue.

Wow that sucks glad.
Looks like they will come back though.

Don't discount those fungus gnats:
They can easily cost you 20% of your harvest and if left unchecked they can go systemic.

So far I'm partial to pheno #2

I heard others say to just ignore them, but how the heck do you ignore an obvious problem. lol.
I need to read up on Azamax and figure out how to use that. I bought a 32 oz. bottle hoping it will solve the majority of my bug problems.
That shit is expensive and I need to learn proper dosage for plants.

Many pot diseases can go systemic, (inside the plant), and fungus gnats are one of them.
Once inside the plant you will be breeding them forever with every clone cut.
They breed on the roots of the plant to start out with; then they move inside the stalks to lay eggs.

What's with the nute burn? Stop making me want to plant my timewreck seeds early! :)
I sprayed some gnat off on the soil and I must have been very sloppy with it cuz I got the shit all over my plants and that damged them pretty bad. I think they are coming back nicely. I think that is what you are seeing anyway. Once a week I use a fish fertilizer. I am going to start giving them fox farm nutes a few times a week also. I may have given them some already.

Yeah, plant leaves do not like gnatrol... burns them a rusty orange red for me. Learned that the hard way myself as well :) Gnats suck. You might try ladybugs next time. I used gnatrol and found no matter what I did I couldn't get rid of all of them (tho got rid of most of them) -- think they had another source to survive on besides the plants. Anyway, ladybugs took care of that situation. They'll eat your fungus gnats, your thrips and your aphids.... just about every major pest except spider mites. They can be a bit annoying sometimes (as in getting into stuff outside your grow room or landing on you and crawling on you) but I think next time I have issues I'm going with ladybugs before any other treatments unless it's spider mites. I just hope I never get that so far so good.

Which foxfarm you use? I used to use growbig and really grew some nice plants in veg on it. Using problend now since it's 100% organic and i like that i can use their lower strength tea when they don't need strong nutes. Going to get into teas eventually probably but I got enough to manage now. With my new veg soil I probably won't need much if any nutes though -- I basically mixed up super soil for veg without as much P. Going to put a layer of it in the bottom of my veg airpots when they move from seedling container to veg.

I've used lady bugs and would to keep using them. Fuckers keep committing 'big light suicide'. Dead ladybugs everywhere. Grow shop owner in Waterford told me to spray Sprite on there wings so the wings stick to their back and they can't fly. That did not work so good. lmao. I will try again though, no problem. It may take me a week or so to get some more but I am all about the lady bugs.

Yeah I may have to get some screen to put over my fan/air intakes on the LEDs as the ladybugs like to land on/in them.

Gnat Off - that's what caused those spots and shit huh?

Plants look good though man considering where they have been in their short lives.
This train is still on time.:leaf:

Gnat off, and operator error. Obviously I should have protected the plants more and to make things worse I sprayed them as I took them from the t5 to 600w. lol. Rookie mistake, I was stressed out and preoccupied while I was gardening and that is the shit that will happen.

The upside of most of the gardening mistakes I've made has taught me how to be better. A little "stress-therapy" demonstrates individual plant requirements like ph or nute sensitivities, among a host of other indicators. People that are perfectionists may miss some of this feedback. Guess I may be justifiying being slack here n there, but it's all a mystery until we crack the code.

I love to know what kind is the best for pain relief, hopefully a Sativa mostly. Have fibromyalgia, arthristis, etc and a real wimp about pain. Thankful for any info as I'm a long time smoker but only to get high never really for med.
