    Caterpillars?

    Here is what’s left of WW #2 after last week’s partial harvest. Buds have started to turn purple in the chillier weather after last week’s heat. Was hoping to do the final harvest at the first hard frost, but I am growing weary of paying the rot tax. Forecast from Friday night on is chilly...

    Caterpillars?

    Been paying the rot tax since Monday on remaining white widow #2. Had to pull a couple nugs each of the first 3 days, and 4 nugs yesterday. Calling for rain later today into tomorrow with possible thunderstorms. Then windy for several days. Went ahead and harvested the larger buds. A bird...

    Caterpillars?

    Just as I exhale a sigh of relief due to the warm, dry weather, I find 2 spots of bud rot on remaining white widow #2. First rot found on that plant thus far. Shit, shit, shit. Removed the spots, sprayed with hydrogen peroxide, then used the last of my 3 in 1 crop defender on a plant...

    Caterpillars?

    Yeah they’re calling for upper 70s and low 80s here through Thursday, some showers next weekend, then much cooler next week. Fed plant #2 with some bloom booster yesterday. This ought to be a great week for adding some weight, then next weeks cooler weather should help ripening. Trying to...

    Caterpillars?

    Plant 1 drying in the shed. Had to remove a couple buds with rot, but knock on wood, doesn’t look widespread. Plant 2 soaking up some much needed sunshine after 7+ inches of rain in sept. Forecast is for several sunny warm days in a row.

    Caterpillars?

    Pulled plant #1 Thursday before our annual trip to the shore. Her early ripening and spots of rot were troubling me. Tropical storm Ophelia and it’s remains have dropped 3.25” of rain since Saturday, and the drizzle and light rain continues with temps in the 50s. Glad I got her out. We’ll...

    Caterpillars?

    Tried to get some closer pics of the plant that’s been concerning me. I see a lot of buds that appear to have brown pistils, but not rot…but I see buds that look like they may have rot. What do you think? Here’s a sample…

    Caterpillars?

    In the almost 2 weeks since my initial post, I removed a few buds that looked like they had rot. We had 5 days or so of rain showers and thunderstorms. One severe storm with 2.25 inches of rain, pea sized hail, and strong winds. Made it thru that relatively well. Prior to rain last night...

    Caterpillars?

    Did some more remediation today. Removed one small branch showing signs of browning. So far, only one of my 2 plants, the most advanced plant, is being affected. I soaked both plants with Dr Earth fungicide again, while I wait for Growers Ally to arrive. I had mentioned that I have a couple...

    Caterpillars?

    It’s my corn patch in my garden, so that’s at least one thing I have under control. Lol. But, good looking out.

    Caterpillars?

    Also wanted to add that it hasn’t been what I would consider mold/rot weather lately. It’s sunny, hot, and rain free. After today, the forecast is for 5 days of showers and thunderstorms…that’s going to make things more difficult.

    Caterpillars?

    Yesterday late afternoon/evening I hit the plants with BT. Took a closer look this morning and cut out some more buds. Sprayed the cuts with hydrogen peroxide 3%. I still don’t see signs of cats. I think this may be mold/rot unrelated to cats. I do have a couple of peach trees in the yard...

    Caterpillars?

    I went down to check on my 2 white widow girls in the corn this afternoon, and found spots on my buds where pistils were turning brown prematurely. My immediate fear was caterpillars. I pulled apart 2 buds, and didn’t see any signs of cats or their poop, but my eyes admittedly suck. I’ve been...

    Makes sense. Every year I fight powdery mildew on my zucchini, but thankfully have never had it infect my cannabis.

    Nine Pound Hammer

    Made it through a 3 day period of rain and drizzle that was on the heels of 4 or 5 nights of frosts and freezes. Letting her get a few days of sun before chopping this weekend. The snap off from the wind was 5 weeks ago, and the remaining lower level branches filled out pretty well.

    Nine Pound Hammer

    Bless their souls, and knock on wood, they are naive. Wife doesn’t drink or smoke, doesn’t know much about that stuff. Thankfully she puts up with my drinking. Lol. I’ve been asked a few times over the years “what is that big thing growing in the corn?” My reply was that it’s some sort of...

    Nine Pound Hammer

    Cold rain last evening followed by heavy dew. Some of the lawn had ice on it this morning. Hit her with BT a couple days ago. Sprayed her down with the last of my Dr Earth fungicide at dawn today as a preventative. One small side branch is hanging by a thread, I’ll pull it later today when...
