Gardens looking great Kitty. Lost about 40% of mine already to budworms, I guess that's another reason I miss growing inside.

what are budworms BTW, how do they look likw

Not easy to post pics from the iPad but they are about an inch long and bright green with a few stripes. Almost impossible to see until the spots they are eating start rotting. Fucked up little bastard fuck creatures live next to the stem but only eat the buds. Found over 20 on 2 plants and it looks like the little fucks got more like 60% of my tops on those ones. Once the eggs are down you're kind of fucked because new ones keep hatching...."..FUCK!

any protection?? i mean i i spray my plants down with organic insecticide

Great Op Kitty's(Mr. and Ms).... Love to see you guys in action! You run a real Class act!
All the Best!!

it does certainly show some very pretty "fall" colours (including purple). although that won't be for a couple weeks yet.

crappy poopy doo doo.

so i found this little tidbit today:

It is extremely important to keep a close eye on your plants even after having gotten apparent control of the initial situation. The mature budworms will fall to the ground and burrow down into the soils where it pupates for about three weeks and emerges as a moth. (It is difficult to get all of them when spraying…..) The females lay eggs on blooms which then hatch into the budworms all over again and another cycle has begun. Long hot summers favor their life cycles and there can be as many as seven such cycles in a growing season, thus the need to keep a close eye on things. Trying to time another spraying of insecticide approximately three to four weeks after controlling the first attack will keep your plants from suffering another major attack.

I wish I could stuff that video down my pants and carry it around. That is how much I like your garden Kitty. Poster girl of Grotek 2012.

Seriously though, your plants look very healthy, and they totally gobbled up those tomato cages. And I'm loving the noding from those bad boys.

But how could you not know that was Freddy Mercury singing with Bowie? Come on now! I suppose it is understandable, first time I heard this song I asked "Who is backing up (vocals) for Mercury?" lol. The parenthesis are there to keep everyone from giggling, or maybe it's just pointing out the obvious?

Kitty, the grow looks fantastic. I know how hard you guys worked. The long haul is now starting to pay off. If you're like me you have your fingers crossed praying for no problems.

Thought you may want to know, Helper D has moved on. He had his hands in the cookie jar. Broke my heart. I'm trying to remain friends, but it's hard. Turns out he was stealing all along. I guess some people just can't help themselves with that much temptation.

Sorry to hear that CG. Having a bit of warehouse experience I know the temptations that can occur, but I couldn't ever bring myself to steal a cut for my own farm, no matter how outrageously dank. I had my own farm at home and nugs thrown at me all day for helping, so I never had the need or temptation to steal buds.

I have a dear friend that is splitting with his room mate because his room mate was pinching too.
