Hi Becca, you're right! When I open the tent I'm pushed back with the sweet sweet smells! That never gets old!U r slaying it, @StoneOtter I'm just imagining the wonderful bouquet of fragrances. It must be delightful.
Great! When you do, come by and drop the url so we can follow you!
Will do, I’ve been putting pictures together today and trying to map it out.
Don’t mean to quote everything, I’m just learning to use the forum on phone.

NEW TO ME, BEAUVERIA BASSIANA GOING IN! UPDATE
Hi all, Someone got me to go down the rabbit hole of Beauveria Bassiana the other day and I liked it! It's, as I understand, a spore that gets inoculated into the plant when young and it grows within throughout its life.
It's the coolest stuff! So a bug takes a meal from my inoculated plant. The spores invade the bug and eats it! The Process I copied from the pages I put you on here tell you all about the gory details! It reads like a horror movie!
The Runtz Muffin went in yesterday and I gave her and Apple Betty a gallon drench of the above BB. They will be inoculated in a while. I'm hoping to end my battle with what I think are mites with this!
Here they are.
If you notice it's dusty, it's pine pollen time here! We can hardly go out lately it's so thick!
And the magic dust.
Hope all's well!
Anyone use this before?

Infection process of Beauveria bassiana
Beauveria bassiana spores start the infection process once they contact the insect cuticle (Figure 1). After contact is made, the fungus begins to produce enzymes (e.g., lipases, chitinases, proteases, etc.) to break down the cuticle layers, then the spores germinate and form germ tubes and appressoria, which are responsible for holding the spores to the insect and exert mechanical pressure on the cuticle [10]. Once the germ tubes (now called hyphae) reach the hemolymph (blood) of the insect, they begin to form specialized single-celled spores (blastospores) to exploit the nutrient rich environment of the insect blood, colonize the tissues, and produce toxic metabolites that kill the insect [11]. Insect death is caused by starvation as the fungus takes over the internal structures of the insect, which finally results in outward penetration of the cuticle and sporulation on the mummified body of the host [12].The Runtz Muffin went in yesterday and I gave her and Apple Betty a gallon drench of the above BB.

Used it before? I can't even pronounce it!

Me neither. I had to read it on my phone to write it. It was my duty to share though!Used it before? I can't even pronounce it!
Excellent job on those plantings! Stay safe on the (eventual) ladder. 
That would have been @Carmen Ray, who has been mentioning that going back to 2020! I'm looking forward to seeing how it works for you. I think she mentioned 2x a week but I'm sure she'll be by with details. Your linked page says "must be released/applied repeatedly."

2 steps and that's it!
Thanks Shed, that's right. I've been using it very effectively mainly on my outdoor grows.Excellent job on those plantings! Stay safe on the (eventual) ladder.

I learnt to use it as a foliar and was intrigued to discover that it is also used as an inoculant.
You're welcome. I hope it works for you. I would advise using it as a foliar once or twice a week.

I bet if I do that, once they start flower they'll be good to go.

Gruesome huh? Safe as long as we respect it. Wash hands after using and don't breath it. Critters safe too.No where do I get it?

You should see some the pics out there of "it" eating it's victims! Wretch!!!
Highya SO,
Sounds like an interesting product. I didn't read the links, but sounds like some nasty stuff. Like you say, as long as you respect it. If not, well..... My question is do you need more bug repellants? The only reason I ask, is, I grow similar to you outdoors, and don't have much of a bug problem at all. I suspected you didn't either, but I guess I'm about to get educated. What say you? Happy Smokin'

I just have a problem with mites and that's just in the past two grows. Before that no bug issues to be concerned about. Safers insecticide soap was my go to for that. It works and washes off but if I can go with this more natural way I'd like to try and see. I won't use anything for bugs but this unless something comes up it doesn't work on.
Carmen and others say to foliar spray is twice a week. I possibly bought the wrong product for that. I have a note sent to build a soil asking if I can somehow use this for that.

TIME TO CUT UPDATE
Hi folks, yesterday on my Tour du Apple Betty I found nanners. Hundreds of them all over. She not going to improve her buds I think so tomorrow is her time for a cut. It'll be 58 days from flip and Herbies says it can be 55 days so she made it. FUNNY this is the Third apple plant I've grown and all did this. Is the terpene or the plant with the terpene responsible maybe? Maybe it was my shaky operation this grow? @Bill284 any nanners on yours?
Still plenty of nice bud!
Pinch any of these pics out and you'll see some nice nanners!
Trichomes are in my ballpark. I don't mind harvesting all milky. We're close.
Tomorrow when the lights come on we cut and trim!
