If I spray during sun/lights on I can fully expect to see burning of leaves in my experience and know it’s my own darned fault

Most of what I say is crap we all have to learn on our own. Which is all well and good as long as we all learn it eventually. Save yourself some pain and learn what we know, just as we try to learn and know what you know. Don’t let any of us get stuck in the trap of trying to diagnose deficiencies or overfeeding symptoms that are based entirely on environment vs the opposite. Reduce variables and focus on helpful things like @Bill284 layering method which promises to be greatest thing for us since invention of bread in my opinion is goal!
I can speak on the canola oil I got PM early with my plant. I used neem before flower but once it starts to flower, I used citric acid once and thought I had it under control. Now I have been spraying all 3 plants and it is working but for me I have to spray at least every other day. My flowers look great all white pistils no browning at all. So for me it works as long as I keep at it. 
Once, someone convinced me that it was a good idea to spray my entire plant with milk. I can tell you that it's not. At least not an indoor plant with grow lights. It got a bit messy and smelly.If I spray during sun/lights on I can fully expect to see burning of leaves in my experience and know it’s my own darned fault

Interesting. How.much does it raise humidity? Does the vapor rub smell take away from the cannabis smell?

I've sprayed neem in full Los Angeles sun and never burned a leaf, so there's that. Pistils on the other hand will burn from the sun when wet.

Keith!Oof. I tried milk for PM and not only didn't it work for me but it went from smelling like nice cannabis to a broken fridge full of food. Never again!
LOL no vapor rub, just the vaporizer! Pure unscented steam, and I put it right behind the fan that's aimed at the holes in box. It raised the RH of the air coming out of the box by about 6% so I backed it up a bit.

You guys should check out post on fishcakes and tunes about growing with milk vs orange juice. Not recommended but hysterical all the same
I tried it to get rid of some thrips. It didn't work and took weeks to dry up and fall off lol. Like Shed said. The smell was bad!I did it on my plant and have dried milk all over my leaves. Live and learn.

Was that a certain fellow uk 420 member from years past that recommended that? I’m pretty sure I remember him doing the milk sprays lol

I will never recommend milk or orange juice sprays but in a pinch I’ll admit to tums dissolved in warm water for a quick indoor Ca fix. Some of the bro science crap does work
Yes. He loved the milk

I believe you said:
Not only that, he was using his wife's beast milk! He had a never ending supply by keeping her pregnant as I recall.

Oh yes it’s all coming back to me nowNot only that, he was using his wife's beast milk! He had a never ending supply by keeping her constantly pregnant as I recall.
He was also good for a dirty joke that would make you blush!

LOL! Yes, I do recall now that you are a schlepper. Had to look the word up tho! Hauling. And yes, the bags would not withstand dragging, straps nor bottoms. It was a “duh!” Moment.Thank you Granny! Dragging would probably wear out the bottoms of the cloth bags, so I'm a schlepper. That's my daily workout.
Great build! I bookmarked it so I can adapt my box technique!
I was pretty new to growing (still am!) and just let the closed box air itself without in and out vents. But now I know how NOT to dry - cuz my bud dried too quickly and TOO dry. Will be using much better techniques with drying and curing this time thanks to the wealth of knowledge I’m learning in 420 and from so many grow journals, like yours! Love it!And btw, happy belated 31st! We celebrated our 44th a few months ago.
A round of applause for those of us serving life sentences, I mean, choosing our true soulmate.
Yes congrats on the anniversaries Shed, and Granny too. I never could get it right and I have the utmost respect and I am so jealous!!! Wishing you a lifetime of love with your respective partners!
Flap flap !!
Hiiiii! I found your shed!!
Learning to navigate and trying to find my friends.
Finally settled where I feel safe
Popped some baggies and will see what happens.

I don't always mention my whole grow method, so feel free to ask any questions that come to mind. I don't mind repeating myself.
Thanks Granny, and if you want to see the high end original I worked from, it was @Mr. Krip's thread here:
DIY drying box with odor control
MY DIY DRYING BOX WITH ODOR CONTROL I was posting pics of my new drying box in my journal as I was building it. The info was scattered over a few posts and I received a request to post the instructions here in their entirety. So, here it goes... Since I'm getting real close to harvest...
www.420magazine.com
The RH outside the box will determine how much airflow you need to keep them drying slowly without over drying them.
and congrats on 44!Thank you Carmen, and it's never too late for a successful second act!
Well boy howdy AB, and so nice to have you flutter back in for a visit! I'm glad you're feeling settled and secure in your new location, and feel free to drop pics here of what you've got going on if you can't be bothered to do the whole journal thing.Flap flap !!

Of course, a few of us from here are still around.
Thank you kindly RR!
CongratsWhile we wait for Carcass to reappearhere's the CapJunky harvest update!
I scoped the trichomes on all three flowering plants and found that the CJ had the fewest clear, so yesterday was chop day (flip day 72 after 70 days in veg).
Here it was just before I got out the snips:
Here's the flop pic, and I was actually expecting more flop than this:
I saved about 10 ladybugs during the (plain water only) wash process and put them back on the bones while they dried off, but I think they flew away before I took this pic:
Here are the flowers after the wash:
I trimmed them myself while I watched the Chiefs game, leaving a lot of the sugar leaves on this time, so most of what's here are the smooth fans and some now-dead caterpillars:
And here is the drying box with the results:
I pointed a fan at the lower holes and left it on overnight, but today I moved it to be on for 30 minutes every 3 hours to make sure they don't dry too quickly. RH in the garage (where the box is) is around 55%, and not being home during the day makes me want to err on the side of caution.
I hope you all had a great weekend and your teams either won or put up a performance that bodes well for the future.
on your harvest Shedster and looking forward to another interesting in-depth smoke review from the Crew. CL
