Since we had a nice breeze I decided to spray the planter bed plants.
First off I started with a mixed solution of SNS-209 (Rosemary based insecticide) and SNS-604A (Sea Kelp vegetation supplement with molasses). However the traditional way of using the 209 is through the roots, the "soapy" texture of the 209 can be used as a lathering agent. And the Sea kelp for the love and food.
Next, I sprayed the plants with the SNS-217 (Spider Mite Spray) not that I have been having a problem with mites, but this product can be good to ward off other insects and set up a line of defense.
After a few minutes, I then sprayed the SNS-244 (Fungicide Spray) which is one of my favorites now, it is a great product that evaporates quickly and smells like a great product to deal with not only fungus but bugs as well.
I let the plants dry out in the wind, and then the residue is left behind on the plants. Tomorrow I will Rinse them with the SNS-311 (All Natural Surface Wash) and reduce any oxidative stress and clean some of the residues up.
I mentioned previously that I had test sprayed these various products for "phytotoxicity" on different cannabis plants that I have. They seem to be excellent working products that seldom effect the plant health in a negative manner. So I think any bugs in there might want to find a new home right now (hopefully), but I will likely get a batch of ladybugs in the near future if possible.
Over all, the products that gets the highest praise from me is the SNS-203, and SNS-244.
Since I was reading earlier in a different thread about stressing the plants out at certain stages toward the end of flower, and this can be done in various species of plants, not only cannabis. I decided to try a little experiment as I wait for the flowers to mature, for the bud-on-a-stick plant I used the ice-pick and poked directly through the stem in 3 different areas and stripped the outer layer of fibers off the "fibrous husk". My hope is that, since I have not watered this plant in quite awhile, and with the added stress, that it will help mature this specimen quicker by concentrating the resins. Just a little experiment for fun is all. I know I can get herbs to come out darn good enough without any special Jazz.
So, we'll see how the plants look tomorrow morning, and I also plan on transplanting the terracotta plant into a larger pot after this batch of water dries out. That's all my thoughts for now.
Over and Out.
