Me mate has just cropped a load of l.a confidential i hadnt seen it much in proper light but when i did i thought he had problems with the grow, too many signs on the leafs.

Anyway buds cropped and little mites crawling out the buds tiny tiny things, from what ive researched i think its something called russet mites, anyone no much about em? Ive read plenty about how to prevent them but fuck nos how to get them out of the finished product? Not thats it matters too much the person who grow it will just smoke it anyway lol

Smoked a couple of bowls and up to my neck in Chinese food, happy days. 25 days in, impatiently waiting on the lights coming on. Outdoors in the UK?

Yup giving it a crack au natural, got plants in the cab also of course, actually giving a few exotics a go, see how it pans out, looming good so far. . .

I do outdoor in the UK (SE), I've found its tricky and very strain dependant! I always lose some to mould, even with our heatwave last year I lost a good portion to mould! I always plant a basil and a couple of sunflowers relatively close as well! (Old timer told me to do this and I havent really had any problems with pests, dont know the science but my loupe never shows much!)

I presume that's an AMG variant? Anti Mould Giant? Or predecessor?
I tried 2x AMG in my garden and never got much off them, didnt really like the smoke after it was cured either so didnt get anymore! Didnt have any problems during the growth, just tasted really really earthy when it was done!

Yeah man I guess we do get a fair bit of rain and humidity, cheers for the heads up though! I’ll try my best to avoid that spore lurking nastiness!!

I like the control of a indoor grow me couldn't just plonk them outside where I live it's never nice lmao even in the summer
Basing it on last summer I thought if it’s even close to that then I think it’s worth trying, not looking good so far though summer doesn’t seem to have hit yet, luckily they’re still vegging in the window and surprisingly doing very very well, got 6 plants in the cab nearly ready for flower, 2 of them are Cali strains, lemon sherberts 8)

In my garden I use essentially a poly tunnel with various fans and a carbon filter (doesnt eliminate all the smell but drastically reduces it to within feet even at harvest unless there is a really strong gust of wind)
For my guerilla plants out in the Bush they receive nothing but what I put in the soil over winter and some water in a drought! Which is why I lose a fair bit to mould/rot I guess!
I grow indoors as well all year round but I'm a very social smoker so when I socialize or make edibles, or even press some rosin on my HM press for vaping I use my outdoor weed, still good quality nugs but not like my upperish shelf (in my opinion not quite top shelf but better than your local 20 bag) indoor nugs!
The cali strains have been hitting it big over here, every other bag of weed is cali this or cali that! Must admit I love the sherbet strains but havent grown any myself yet! May have to invest in some Cali genetics, how has the lemon sherbert been to grow? Recommend or pass?

I’m still in veg dude but so far nothing out of the ordinary really, done my usual tricks and it’s fine up to now, guess I’ll find out more when I’m in the flowering stage.
