Your flowers are looking pretty good! When you figure the earliest harvest will be? I've been checking mine everyday picking probably a dozen leaves off or so that I find pm on. Rotating praying milk mixture and a baking soda mixture. Doing both once a week on the majority of my grow. Seem to be keeping it under control not spreading like crazy or anything but spots still show up here and there. Northern lights are bulking nicely blue dream is atleast 2 weeks behind them. My gelodo is junk just seems to be slowly dying so I've pretty much gave up on it. I'm 6' 5" for reference lol.
Hey, BC outdoor grower here.
You will need to make horsetail tea and spray all your plants ASAP or else the infection will destroy all of your effort. No one wants to smoke PM buds. Horsetail does not get rid of the outbreaks (fuzzy's), but CURES the illness and stops the infection from living in the plant. All of your plants are infected!
Thank Me later.

I make it from fresh horsetail grass or you can buy it dried and ready to re-hydrate. have a look.
First you soak it over night in a gal. (4 L) water. Then bring to boil set to simmer 20- 30 min (10 metric min. LOL). Cool down with a beer or whatever you drink. Once cool and the horsetail brew is cool as well. You can strain and add 1 drop of natural dish soap. You will need to wet all of the leaves etc. Always spray your plants in the morning before the sun and be sure that they have dried completely. This may require fans if there is no wind or it is cold. Do Not leave your plants with any liquid on them. This is most important when there are any buds. water = mold or sunburn.
Repeat this process 2-4 times.
If you have visible outbreaks your plant may need a couple more treatments.
This is not a cleaning of PM although it will wash it off and could be combined with milk or what have you for the white stuff.
This is a cure for the living plant and will lay waste to PM internally.
All of your plants in your garden will live to an old age with no PM whatsoever in their system.

well pm has struck one of my girls pretty good i ended up chopping her completely was a sad day but can't take the risk of the other plants ...i should have trimmed quite a bit more that cookies is a strong brancher!

Other are doing great ! Nice fat buds on my haze .
Sorry to see that bud !
 
Sept 09 update !


Down to 3 large plants and 2 smaller potted so glad i cut that one down just not enough airflow my mistake when planting.


The choc haze is just crushing it ! Very good sized buds top and bottom of plant i have 3 fans going 24/7 on her !

My brice banner the slowest of them all is doing good buds are pink as ever ! Doesn't look like the pink will be going away its here to stay !
Had to do a major defoliation to this plant its very mild resistant but was like dark mid way through plant so .


Overall I can't complain everytbings doing great my pride and joy the haze looks like a 3 llb pound easily!

Pm is at bay with fans and every 4 day milk spray whcoh i plan to stop completely shortly seems to be working !


My mansdarin cookies its doing OK but had bad pm and sooty mold its hanging on i really want one of these to finish .


My 2 potted plants cream caramel and orange kush cake are doing good rather small buds but healthy and no mold .

Plants are now over 6 months old !

Hesding away on a boat in only camping/fishing trip for 4 days hoping everything stays the way it is !


Thanks for reading !


Jared / supermar feel free to post pics here interested to hear how your doing !


This bruce banner Is so interesting I have never seen such vibrant colors on a cannabis plant period well maybe in magazines but ...
Man you guys got me shook about PM early so I ended up trimming the pretty good over a month ago, so far so good, have been using a baking soda mix as a preventative measure but wait for the sun to come out and spray them with the milk mix on the very few problem areas. 1st Blue Dream is looking good and I would say a week away from harvest , next is the White Widow Skunk stacking nice and fast with pink on top, I have another blue Dream that is ok but seems to be thining out and constantly yellowing, to be honest they are all starting to yellow leave here and the since I switched over to a more bloom feeding schedule, is this normal or should I introduce more nitrogen to the mix, finally I have a white widow max that is the healthiest but way behind, do you think she will make it? Or will I need to most likely bring her inside?

You're thinking a week away from harvest already? Havnt had sun here for 5 days and it's been pretty wet. Really bad week for pm I'm fighting hard trying to keep things growing healthy. Thinking my furthest along northern lights is 2-3 weeks for the start of the harvest window.
 
Yeah just one and the only reason I say that is because it started weeks before the rest and I'm seeing just a few ambers. I hope I'm wrong because I want those buds to get thicker. It's just my first grow so not sure what to expect

A few friends have harvested I know my strain shoots Amber's like right off the hop was confusing the first time around ...

They look great the weather has been decent lately and I think we're in for a warm fall to be honest so maybe ypu will just make it ! I don't plan on chopping until early to mid October weather provided .I just had to give my plants 1 feeding of nitrogen and that was it just big bloom feeds now and cal mag on and off . I have the odd few leaves yellowing but nothing un natural ...yeah my pm was almost out of control i just got on it in time and the fans going i am golden now (I hope) .

I have had decent luck with milk spraying and a good small pressurized sprayer helps a ton .

I stop all.spraying and trim at this point and let it ride until harvest

Sorry been Mia


My plants are doing good I am.shocked by the size of the sativas buds at this point much bigger than last year the bottom of the plant has 3 to 4 inch nugs few friends are guessing 2.5 pounder but I am.leaning towards 3 .. buds are swayin now this strain is a ton of fun to grow and has some serious potential next year !

My bruce banner oh boy what a site to see in person I am not a experienced grower nor have I seen hundreds of plants but the color.of the buds is stunning overall pink with magenta undertones I have about 10 seeds and last time I flowered with the strain it was the typical color so ...I never thought the pink would stick figured it was weather or something would go away but certainly not the case .


Now new photos of my other plant mandarin cookies but its coming along lots of trichs( last photo)

Just got a new phone the second to last pic was taken at night with no flash/light kind of cool ...

Hope everybodys plants are doing good might not be a bad idea to peel back a few buds away from the stem and check the stalks I found 2 branches that had bugs shit now i am.confused aphids or thrips but anyway I find when they are doing good i slack on inspections so


Kind of interested to see what we all get
Jared/super we all have massive plants and vegged early so ...

Sleeping with my window open until harvest dogs on high alert although not that kind of dog ...seems weird to think about it but I would dial 911 if I woke up to a plant thief in the yard different times now ..

First grow here too. I was waiting for the hairs to go brown before I even look.


If there's any advise I can give as to when to harvest wait wait wait ...put it this way I have 4 or 5 harvest under my belt and I harvested almost all of them to early! I was chopping as soon as they were cloudy when I should have waited a bit as the transition into medium could/amber could be a few weeks from then....

Dude your plants are huge i would be more than thrilled to be where you are first time grower I didnt even harvest my first few plants went to check on my buds and caterpillers were all isnide the buds gross ....

Yeah I have the same urge here, this one white widow skunk, staring to orange and to show about 5 % amber on some bud sites, I would say mid plant. While the top colas are still cloudy and a bit clear with white hairs and pink still. Overall I want those coals to thicken up another 50% or so but is that too greedy? I guess my question is will all strains show orange hairs first before the tricomes go amber ?

Yeah honestly I am.not so sure but I know I have harvested to early on most of my plants in the past your pics above to me look like 3 weeks away possibly and yeah takes a bit to even read trichomes accurately I do know for sure some strains will show amber right off the hop like my.choc haze I am actually looking at little piece now....fair bit of amber but clear trichs mostly ...


The bud swelling I haven't grown enough to amber that but I feel like a good guess would be at least a quarter bigger if not more I always read last few weeks last few weeks they pack on ...you don't want airy buds thats for sure ...

I have also heard look at the trichomes on the bud not the leaves and some even say only really look at the calyx trichs so ..
