Stage Hits The Brix! - COB LEDs & More

Well done on the cull! It's hard to do it, but after a couple times I swear it helps your growing. When we fall in love with the plants, we often don't see things we should. After a few culls, it help!

The veg plants look spectacular, per usual.

I'm using a new mite regimen and we're winning the battle over Cannabis Cup mites, without using anything resembling a miticide.

After pruning in veg which I usually do twice, about 2 weeks apart, I spray Leaf Wash (High Brix product...horticultural oils and fish juice) on high pressure, and I visualize pressure washing every inch of the plant, leaf, stem, top, bottom. My goal would be to physically remove every mite.

The whole time, I'm also applying foliars as needed and I'm also using them to blast away mites. I mix 'em 3/4 strength.

Then, just prior to transplanting I do the same thing, and then a couple days later, and then one more time a couple days after that. The plants love it, and I'm back to being able to just let the mites live and not do any damage. It's taken a couple months, but it's working.
 
Way to recover Stage. :high-five: life happens, eh? :battingeyelashes: :Love:

Shiggity...... :hugs:

Community love... This is why we're here and not somewhere else. :cheesygrinsmiley:

I know you don't care about them, but I'd have given you reps more than once for this one. Thank you again. :hugs: :Love:

Update:
Good morning Fellas and Fems!
Stage on a Sunday morning saying hello,
Sending you all green blessings, nugs and hugs.

I will spare you the details for the long pause in updates.
Suffice it to say Stage still got it growin on.

Since my last update, I have made a few changes in the grow room.
Trying to step up my game yall.

Setup:
Currently running 3 4x8 tents in a 3 light rotation.
One 4x8 will be veg.

Unfortunately when running regular seeds:

There are tough decisions to make. Thankfully space is my friend.

The other two 4x8 will be bloom 1 & 2. (day/night)

The bloom tent(s) will have 10 plants in 7 gal softies.
Had to make a frsh batch of cooked soil for the new starts.

The lights will be the Budmaster COB x6 flanked by a pair of 315w CMH/LEC fixtures w/Phillips 3100k bulb.
The other bloom tent has the Advanced LED XML350 in the center w/pair of LECs. (approx 945w each tent)

I added a 50 pint dehuey and connected the drain hose to this 60 gallon tank.
Water pump and airstones keeps water aerated.
Easier to water without back breaking bucket carrying.

Here are some bud pics. My 1st impression of these LEC's are that they bring the frost pretty early.
Flower quality is very good and leaf stress is not an issue. The phillips bulbs are making the ladies and me very happy.

High Sue. :hugs::hugs:Thank you sugar. I really needed that.:hugs::hugs:

High O Sweet One,
The feeling is soo mutual my dear.
Please continue being a positive being in my universe.

High Mono,
I am hanging in there. Life changes, room changes...just changes.
Sometimes I long for the old days of a simple 4 plant 4x4 run.
Not that I'm waxing nostalgic too long cause the current group of ladies remind me why variety is the spice of life!
Where ya at fella? Hope all is well.
