Terrible critters they eat out stem from the inside, European corn borers. We grow a lot of corn here and it's left till October, farm animals food. So they jump to cannabis from time to time. I'm keeping Brix up but they still attack most of my plants. The one they didn't touch is Mexican sativa, the rest they do some damage however limited. Spinosad works for them NCW told me.

My nearest neighbor's, youngest daughter takes Psych Med's and on occasion goes off the rails. Normally maybe once a year. Recently it has been happening every 3 days or so, do to the fact she has all of a sudden taken up drinking. I wake up and go to the kitchen to get a Coke, and when I get back to my room, there is a Sheriff car blocking my drive way and the officer is coming up my drive way. I throw on some shorts and head for my front door. I get there before the officer and open the door before they knock, startling the officer. What is out of my view at this time is the other 10 units. My neighbor's daughter drank on her Psych Med's again and started trashing her parents house, so they had to call 911. When all the commotion was over, the chick officer that helped me out last year, dropped by to see how I was doing. No shit. The way it goes where I live these days is all about MONEY. If they have to come to your house, some one is going to jail to pay for their costs. I would have never thought in a Million years, I would be kickin it with the people I have disliked for my entire Life. We stood in my drive way and talked for 1/2 an hour, then I walked her to her car and she was gone. Things they are a changing. Unbelievable. Yet way cool in its own rite. Cool COPS, messed up GROW, its usually the other way around. That was the good part and now Comes the Sucky part, these (word I cant say) worms are OUT OF CONTROL. I have all this bud hangin from when it rained, that needs grooming. But the worms wont let up. I have been spending all day light hours, on the BUG HUNT, confident that I have got them all when I go to sleep, then wake up to this unfortunence:
That is the RKS in P2. Up til now the worms really haven't been a problem on the RKS. Im thinkin this is going to be my last grow. Only because of the emotional investment I have in them. I love them with all my heart and then to have them go by the way side, its as bad as your dog getting hit by a car. So it looks like I am going to be unable to bring this crop to fruition. If I am going to wake up and entire branches are going to be gone, I should yank this stuff now before I'm POOP out of luck. Look I got to go, there's just to much to do. I still have a smile on my face and a good attitude, so every things as cool as it gets under the circumstances. C-Ya
Suckage I say! Frikin' worms...
Booyah! with the police.
Booyah! with the police.
Never growing outside I am yet to feel your pain with the bugs but I do get you on the cops, I opened my door after a knock the other day and when I opened the door 2 of them were stood there. I still had my pipe in my hand. Here to speak to my wife about a robbery at a customers house. Glad it worked out for you on that.
Oh TOAST, what a heartbreak. I get the emotional attachment. It's almost like they're living personalities. I'm so sorry Baby.

Hey Lem!
keep up the fight with the upstart worms - and it sounds as if the UltraDog is keeping you amused and distracted during the breaks from plant tending
Joke for the day to keep your spirits up while you work.....
A man escapes from prison where he has been for 15 years. He breaks into a house to look for money and guns, and finds a young couple in bed. He orders the guy out of bed and ties him to a chair. He ties the girl to the bed and he gets on top of her, kisses her neck, and then gets up and goes into the bathroom. While he's in there, the husband tells his wife, "Listen, this guy is an escaped convict, look at his clothes! He probably spent lots of time in jail and hasn't seen a woman in years. I saw how he kissed your neck. If he wants sex, don't resist, don't complain, do whatever he tells you. Satisfy him no matter how much he nauseates you. This guy is probably very dangerous. If he gets angry, he'll kill us. Be strong, honey. I love you." His wife responds, "He wasn't kissing my neck. He was whispering in my ear. He told me he was gay, thought you were cute, and asked me if we had any Vaseline. I told him it was in the bathroom. Be strong honey. I love you, too!"

Hello every one, now that I am not ripped off my ass and before, I get that way, I want to better describe the High Of the UD, and show the WOG trimmed before Jarring:, Wow, as it stands right now. This Grapedawg is really strong, but I cant see what service it would provide on the medical front. Seriously, I had and have plants hanging every where that needed to be dealt with, after taking a .1 bong rip, on the exhale, you are immediately high, than after about 30 seconds, you get really high with a big smile on your face, then about 3 minutes in all hell breaks loose, and for me it was the highest I have ever been on 1 hit. The only problem was, I would think to my self," Damn I got to trim this bud ", I would stand up, take 3 steps and then couldn't remember why I stood up, so I would sit back down, then remember, and the cycle would start over. If you made it to the area you had planded to trim in, you realize you didn't bring the scissors, you get the scizzors, come back and remember you didn't get the Loop, and so on and so on. Its just like eating a 1/8th of shrooms but not as enjoyable, because you go from one place to another and not know why. It got to the point where I gave up, " This shit is not going to let me do any thing, so Im not. Then I sat down and laughed my ass off and didn't worry about it. You want to do every thing that pops in your head but you might as well not try. Ive never smoked any thing like it, but it was Hella Fun. Well I got a lot of stuff to do now that my synapsis are fireing correctly. So I got to make Hay while the sun shines and before I do any more of the Underdawg. TOAST
Haha! I read that and thought "Oh Yeah!! My kinda buzz!! WooHoo!!! Pass that bong over here dammit!!!"

Well its actually worse then I said and or thought. There were 3 worms per bud per plant and those were just the ones crawling on the out side, when I checked them this morning. It was pretty easy, pull um now or TOTAL LOSS. I'm use to going up and seeing a gray spot starting on a bud, spreading it open, picking out the worm, and going about my business. Possibly 20 times a season if that. Until today the image of a plant that had been run down by a run-a-way lawn mower, caused by worms, was never in my mind, but now is burned into memory. Its like I have my way of harvesting, but that goes right out the window, when you are forced to yankum all at once, it creates a whole new set of problems to deal with. You actually have to take a step back, and devise new ways to geter dun. I don't know whats goin on with me, but any other time in my life if this were to happen, I would have gone off, screaming, yelling and throwing stuff a round, hell I did that when it rained just last week. But you know what, I got a smile on my face, I'm gona take my time, I'm gona do what needs to get done, and I'm gona take what I get and like it. I hope if you take any thing away from watching me grow, its shits gona happen, and it happends to every body, and don't let it ruin your life its only POT. Here's a pic of what Ive taken down so far about a 1/3. As I dismantle the plants I will post some pix of what these crazy ass worms can really do.:
Have an absolutely Bitchen LOL weekend. TOAST Radogast I was disappointed you of all people didn't get the " post. TOAST-ty " thing, maybe you did and just didn't say any thing. Its cool. I mean us being Twin Brothers and all, I thought we would more connected.LMAO
A true man of action in the face of the s**t life so thoughtlessly tossed into your path. Wish we could swoop in and help you out with this TOAST. Drat! The limitations of the physical world are sometimes beyond exasperating. We're right there with you in spirit. I know, that would've been a lot more helpful with a strong back and legs behind it.

It feels wrong "liking" these posts, but I appreciate all the info and pictures.
I hope you can still salvage a good harvest.
