Risky Business @ 74 days

Hello HydroRed,

my apologies for using this thread as a way to reach out to you but i cant figure out how to contact you directly through the site. Anyway i found an old post (https://www.rollitup.org/t/fucking-broad-mites.899385/) you put up back in 2016 on Russet mites and how you dealt with them.

A little background...I have a small (3X3) tent setup in a typical basement. i have lost two gardens in a row this year to these fuckers. i have read so much on them it makes my head spin. The first garden i honestly didnt know what i had until it was too late. I fought the battle with 86 Mites and green cleaner (i was 2 weeks into flowering when i figured out what was going on) but lost the battle. I then bleach cleaned all my equipment, tent, vacuumed the grow room (it has old carpet), washed all my smart pots (and bleach soaked them) then washed again, new soil, etc.

a month later (thinking i made it past their lifecycle) dropped some seeds and started over, within 2 weeks my poor seedlings had them and were struggling to survive. i switched up to some mighty wash and alternated that and the green cleaner. But as expected the little guys couldn't fight them off and i lost everything again. i should mention i think the mistake i made was bringing the equipment out of the grow room into another room in the basement to be cleaned them moving them back in, i am thinking those bastards were outside the grow room at the point of cleaning but who knows.

anyway sorry for the book. at this point i am done fucking around with these pricks and spending money trying to "deal" with them. I have been researching the Pyrethrum fogger and have even reached out to the manufacturer with some questions but they wont help cause i am not a commercial setup. The reason i am reaching out to you is, in your very extensive post on how to deal with them you mentioned "DO NOT USE THE FOGGER IN A CLOSED TENT." Its really hard to find info on how to deal with these things outside of a commercial setup and even harder to find someone who has dealt with them in the past. I had some questions that i hoping you can answer:

1) do you think if i completely open the tent, set it off in the grow room but keep all basement doors open (aside from the ones leading to the upstairs or outside of course) i can let the fogger treat the entire basement?

2) do you know if this stuff leaves behind any film or residue that needs to be cleaned?

3) if a dog ( i keep his ass out of the basement to help prevent problems like this in general but sometimes he sneaks down there but he never gets into the actual grow room) licks a surface that the fogger has come into contact with, do you think they will get sick?

4) does it harm electronics?

once again sorry for posting this here, i just went your most recent posts and picked one and thank you in advance for any knowledge you can throw my way!

This pheno I got of the GG4 x shoreline is a beast and has been looking great her whole life! IMG_6599.JPG



I have two sour d x sog phenos that are sour d dom by the late signs of flower and how hungry they are. All plants get the same feed so these gals are super feeders
Excited to have a sour d to smoke tbh though

Sorry about being MIA the last cpl weeks. I lost my brother and have been pretty occupied lately. I'll get a smoke report and some pics up later tonight for the "Candyman" and "Risky Business" testers.
Thinking of you and your family Hydro, and saying a prayer. I can’t imagine anything much harder than that. Hang in there brother. Yeah, I was wondering where you were at. I’m sorry to hear this my friend.

CANDYMAN Smoke Report
Harvested at 61 Days
Pheno 1 (keeper)
Smell- 9/10 The smell from pheno #1 was amazing early on which was noted earlier in this thread. Very sweet obviously, but had a floral/perfume smell early flower. It was ALL candy by week 4+ and smelled very sweet, but not a fruity sweet. The name to this one is very fitting.
Dare I say "cotton candy-ish"? No distinct smell, but sugary would be how I can best describe it.
Taste- 9/10 The flavor matches the smell and leaves your lips sweet with every hit. Strong sugary sweet hits down to the roach with a flavor that doesnt fade even when down to the tail of the joint. I cant say I taste a strong Sour Grape influence in it, and I dont have any experience with PCK so all I can really say with the flavor is that it is well pronounced and is exactly what you should expect from this strain name. Smooth, easy to smoke and not chokey in the least. Very pleasurable smoke whether it be bowl, joint etc. This would be a real winner for extracts.
Potency- 8/10
I find more often than not, that on heavy "fruity strains" or "sweet" strains that the potentcy can be lacking. Not the case with this one. Heavy trichomes from early on in flower seemed to aid in the headcrack associated with this pheno. Strong initial buzz with a cerebral, behind the eyes kinda high. 1 joint between 2 seasoned smokers was more than enough.
Bag appeal- 8/10 The bag appeal was there on this pheno. Thick resinous buds covered in frost very early on. Tight bud structure that weighs, and looks good doing it! Though this wasnt the heaviest pheno, it was surely the prettiest of the 3. Has a slight pink appearance on the inside of the buds when you bust a nug open.

Risky Business Smoke Report
Harvested @ 74 days I believe.

Smell- 6/10 The smell on this wasnt very loud throughout flower. I picked up more of the Sour Diesel than anything while it was flowering. It wasnt until after the dry/cure that the shoreline started to shine through.
Taste- 8/10 The taste is reminiscent of 90's skunk which was also verified by a few of my friends that smoked it without knowing anything about what it was. I was told it reminded them of the skunk we got in the 90's (which I notice seems to be a theme when I run Shoreline OG's gear)......and we are all fans of it! Ultra smooth smoke you can take monsterous hits of without the slightest cough.
Potency- 7/10 I didnt think the potentcy was over the top with this one. Mild, comfortable and chill buzz. Nothing racey associated with this strain. Great for daytime smoke where you can remain functional and still get through the day without a nap. I believe this to be a well suited strain for someone with paranoia, anxiety issues or panic attacks.
Bag appeal- 6/10 Though this very well could be my issue after seeing the gorgeous pics Shoreline posted of his strain, it came out a lot like my Plaza Boss did. Lots of foxtails and the buds were a bit airy and leafy and a bit tedious to trim. Im not sure if it was due to my environment or feed but other strains in the same table feeding from the same reservoir didnt do this. The frost was there, and it had nice structure, just wish the buds were a bit tighter. I only had one female to judge from so your results may differ greatly from mine.
