I am lucky in that I have always had fighter pilot vision ( 20/16). But when I hit 40 I had to get reading glasses. I'm up to x2 reading glasses now. I can read a sign far away much easier than a book up close!

It's true, I just posted a big update to my latest journal. If you follow me on IG you already know what's up.
Hey Doc,
I was lost in thought, imagining what it might be like if some evil corporation found a way to alter cannabis genetics to make it immune to mites for instance ...
And a more pertinent question came to mind.
Your mites. What effect does a sulfur burn have? 
I'm guessing it's too much risk to the blooming girls? It's gotta be annoying to have to live with them, even if they're manageable. My experience with whiteflies still gives me the the creeps. It's like Mother Nature smiling sadly down on us, shaking her head. You can't hold siege against those forces - one day you have to open the sally port.

Nice.....nice....what are your night temps? The reason I ask is because taking very good and making it truly great can often be a few degrees in temps. You've got more purple petioles than I like. See if you can up temps a few degrees....like 3.
Even if that's not possible, you're about to harvest some amazing weed. But if you hang around here EVERYONE has great weed, so we'll tell you stuff besides "good job." You're doing a F'n GREAT job. Get those night temps up, make sure day temps are about 78 and humidity about 55% and you're elite in quality. Just like that.

I haven't done a sulfur burn in like two years. As for mites, there's very little evidence of them lately. A small web from time to time on a fan leaf in bloom and that's about it. We're managing to live together I suppose.
I wash every inch of the plant before putting it into bloom. Between that, the foliars and brix over 12 it's really not an issue. I'd wash the plants down anyways, so they aren't giving me any extra work.
Without spraying a single miticide......
Speaking of mites, I'm hearing rumors of azadathracin residue causing neurological damage. Pretty much everything out there is testing positive for pesticides folks. It's very, very sad and is going to cause us all some grief.
High Brixers are clean and healthy. Grow your own folks! Don't fall prey to corporate weed and don't buy what isn't washed and free from anything unnatural, including pesticides.
We can do this. YOU can do this.
Coincidentally, over the past couple of days I've had the opportunity to smoke buds from two different HB growers, and it hadn't occurred to me that I lit 'em up with confidence. 
Didn't give it a second thought!
Over the past four years, I've only smoked from a few buds that weren't my own. A couple were awful, a couple were punchy but "dead" ... one smelled like it had been sprayed with blueberry perfume ... ick.

No problem Doc, can do. I've had the night temps around 68-70 with rH at 50-55. And Day temps around 75-76 with rH at 50-52

I like the night temps. You're not on a cold floor, right?
I suspect if you got daytime temps up to 78-79 You'd be at top speed. You wanna get 'em in the groove and try to ride it all the way to harvest and you're 99% there....just a couple degree I suspect.

Not on a cold floor at all. Looks like this.
Thanks doc, I feel like everything is finally rolling in a good way. I just got the temps good about 4 days ago. Hopefully this stay good like this. It's hot here so..... you know how it goes.

I've got some veteren high brix grower's produce here too. And not only did I not give it a second thought, I think this Panama might be the best smelling herb ever. What IS that smell? And there's seeds too......oh no.
But it is the cleanest, sweetest, smoothest and subtle smoke. No bad manners, no lung pinch, civilized and elegant. It's my first time smoking year old HB weed, properly dried and cured. Reminds of the first time wine tasted good to me.
We got sumpin' grand with this High Brix stuff.

Is that concrete? If so, that's probably the issue. You want a couple more inches or some styrofoam. That's close enough to act like a heatsink. Trust me, I have a concrete floor and I learned at jackass college.

Ok, I'll get some styrofoam tomorrow. Thanks. I was thinking that because I was off the floor that I was good to go.

I've been smoking nothing BUT well-aged HB weed.
Smoothness is probably its best trait, plus the fact that it holds in mason jars for years on end.
You're right - it's kinda like brandy and port in that regard. One savors it.

This is what I'm looking for. I haven't had the pleasure yet. Everything I smoke makes me cough a lung up lol. I'm looking for a as smooth a smoke or dry herb vape I can get. Maybe start making my own edibles as well. I've never had the pleasure of trying them so I might as well give a go a home with what I have .. when I have it.
I really am patently waiting while ride this roller coaster of life for my HB exit to arrive. There I will get to experience the difference. Red pill blue pill ..
