Re: Vapedogg223’s Got a Brand New Bag! All Organic - High Brix -Nirvana Ice- 49 Plant

I use a product called Gnatrol...it's a biological larvicide that's OMRI listed and has worked well for me but no idea what harm if any it would do to your microherd???? Only took 2 applications last time I used it and they were gone for the rest of the grow.

I have also battled the little flying demons which are known as the gnat. I use an animal safe mosquito dunk in my water barrel and it really does keep them at bay. I also hang the strips around to catch any of the flyers. With using teas and high brix soil the gnats seem to want to always come back, but never make more than a cycle. Just my 2 cents and hope you/we all get rid of them.

Vape ~ sorry to hear of your accident, truly sorry.

Thanks for taking the time to do that demonstration, it was very helpful. I'm looking to purchase a vaporizer within the next year. Do you or anyone else know of any other bagged vapes that are cheaper then the volcano, and still of good quality?

sounds like you had some pain then mate, im hoping the meds you produce really do help you my friend, i lost my fiance to drunk driver so now im a single dad doing my best to cope with a 5 and 7 year old boy n girl, so lifes tough, i got insomnia real bad and thats one of the reasons i need the meds im growing, plus it helps to make mind off things and makes life a bit better for me, but you was on the other end of a drunk driver where you got hit, so cant imagine the recovery process involved with that, by the sounds of it you went through a lot just to pull through, each days a struggle but when we can grow something to ease the pain and make life that much easier then why shouldnt we, i just wish the law and government would change where i live and to finally not be labeled a criminal for growing a few plants for personal use, its about time my country caught up with the us and gave people med cards to allow them to grow

Wow bro...sorry to hear about your fiancé. I'm going to try and refrain from going on a rant about how dangerous alcohol is, and how completely asinine it is that it's perfectly legal, but cannabis isn't.

And I'm sure you remember me complaining about my insomnia! The White Widow I have now works well for pain and inflammation...but it's not really cutting it for the insomnia. With any luck, the Ice will be the ticket!

I too have my physical and emotional crosses to bear but when I read some of the stories that you two and so many other so bravely share I am inspired. It's usually not done to garner sympathy or pity but to reach out to others instead, to say it's not just you and you aren't alone and that makes it even more amazing. When we can take our own pain and suffering and turn it around to try to make something good come from it then I believe we are reaching our highest potential as human beings. I've seen it happen eventually in almost every thread I've read and it's the thing I've come to appreciate the most about this place.
Sending good vibes in your directions...even if I don't know EXACTLY what direction that is...lol.

for the good vibes! They are definitely appreciated! The weather started clearing up today, and I already feel a hundred times better!

There are LOTS of folks here with much more serious problems than I...whenever I start feeling sorry for myself I try to think of them, and then suck it up and cary on!

I've been fortunate...that was actually my second serious accident...I survived a high-speed rollover in Northern Cali when I was in the Army. The government Suburban I was in spun out on a highway going over 70 MPH and flipped several times. There were four of us in the vehicle and miraculously the only one seriously injured was the driver, who suffered a few broken ribs. Sadly, the Suburban didn't fair quite as well...The other accident I told you about was in a larger SUV also. I absolutely believe I'd have been dead if either of those accidents had been in smaller vehicles, and to this day, I don't care what anyone says or thinks, I will only own SUVs and trucks...

Hope you're feeling better Vape.

Where did you get the vape from, a sponsor?

I see Arizer Solo for 229, did you pay the same?

Stop by the OC+ thread. I have a few pics form today's Critical+ harvest.

Re: Vapedogg223's Got a Brand New Bag! All Organic - High Brix -Nirvana Ice- 49 Plant

Vape,

Same thing here, cant seem to get rid of them. Not harming the plants, but a real nuisance.

This grow should be complete in a week or two. Clean the room good, fresh soil.

I read they like moist soil and organic soil. Might be an never ending battle. I had weed block on top of the soil at first, but my friend doesn't like it for some reason. I think weed block and some gravel on top next time might prevent major infestation.

Yeah...I started seeing more and more, so I ordered some sticky traps and by the time the traps arrived I noticed they were even more of the little bastards, so I put a few of the traps out and I was amazed how many I caught so I put ALL of the traps out...15 total. It's only been 4 days or so and the traps are full...I've never seen anything like it! I guess they were all hiding in the soil. It's not from the Coast of Maine because I still have some left that I mixed up in the beginning, in a garbage can in my basement and there's no sign of the gnats down there.
I did get my package of SNS products from the MOTM prize package thanks: again 420 Magazine!) so I wondering about using the SNS 203 Soil Drench Spray | Sierra Natural Science. I'm curious if anyone has used it, and how well it worked. I'm also curious if it will harm any of the beneficials in my soil... The two active ingredients are clove oil and rosemary oil.

Hope you're feeling better Vape.

Thanks bro, I am feeling better! I got my Extreme Q locally...they matched the online price for me, but they didn't cary the Solo, so I did order it from a sponsor, EZVapes: Arizer Solo - All Vaporizers - EZVapes.com. $229 was indeed the price I paid, and with the free express shipping, I had it the next day!

I'll definitely be over to the OC+ thread to take a look!

Edit: I almost forgot...there was a discount code for 420 Magazine on EZVapes' banner, so there was a discount on top of their price...maybe 10%...I can't quite remember.

Yeah! Thanks VapeDogg! Mine came in the mail and mom tried it out today... she likey Thanks for the recommendation and how-to, and of course the demo I think I need a better grinder.

Cool! So you did get the Solo?
I think she'll end up loving it! Just let me know if you need any more demos...it's tough work, but somebody's got to do it!

both! It's actually the same stuff in both Gnatrol and Mosquito Dunks! Bacillus thuringiensis subspecies israelensis...they are an aerobic bacteria that kill the insect larva...If I can't find any Gnatrol locally I might just be tempted to throw a mosquito dunk in with my next batch of tea that I brew, and see what happens!

No worries about the accident bro...other than a few times a year because of the weather, I do pretty well! I feel sorry for the folks that suffer because they don't have access to cannabis like we do!

I'm sure there are many others, but take a look at the other vaporizer I use, the Arizer Extreme Q 4.0. It's a very high quality unit and came with extra of each glass part...definitely a very good value! The only downside to using the bag with it is there's no valve...you just hold your thumb over the mouthpiece in-between draws. But considering the Extreme Q is $239 and the Volcanos are $539 for the analog or $669 for the digital, I'll use my thumb all day long! Would you like a demonstration?

I also looked at the ViVape, but now you're getting close to the Volcano price tag! There are others, here's what EZVapes sells: Balloon Inflating, but I haven't researched them all. There's also other sponsors that sell vaporizers that you should check out.

Yup, got the solo on your recommendation. She likes it. I can tell because she keeps using it

Extreme Q demo please! LOL

Hi Vapedogg223 I didn't say anything about your accidents, I'm sure you don't need any reminders. I'm Just glad you are felling better.

Re: Vapedogg223’s Got a Brand New Bag! All Organic - High Brix -Nirvana Ice- 49 Plant

Thanks for the rundown! You sure are becoming quite the Vape Guru Lol

I would love to see an Extreme Q Demo when you get the chance, as long as it doesn't interfere with the plant update

Re: Vapedogg223's Got a Brand New Bag! All Organic - High Brix -Nirvana Ice- 49 Plant

Hello everyone...It's update time!

May 16th
12/12: Day 36
Bloom: Day 30

These first five are all of one plant I pulled out of the SOG. It's a different plant than the one I pulled out last update though...I just grab one at random each time.

And here's the canopy...

A little closer with the flash...

And some random bud shots...

And lastly the whole SOG...

Here you can see a few of the sticky traps...there are literally thousands of fungus gnats in them. I went looking for Gnatrol today and the one grow shop that normally carries it didn't have any in stock (of course). I ended up going to Home dePot and picking up some mosquito dunks. I crumbled one up per 15 gallons of water, and will be dunking all the girls' tonight. With the sticky traps keeping the adults in check, if the mosquito dunks do their job, I'll hopefully be done with these gnats!
I think things are looking pretty good considering it's just about the halfway point... for checking them out!

They are looking great! A couple of the photos such as the third one looks very similar to DNA's Sharksbreath or Sour Cream

excellent looking plants Vape.

I think my friend hit the nail on the head tonight when he said, "with the brix, all plants look like jorges diamonds"

heres a bizare one for you. I have a friend that grows out doors and is always asking me for info, even though he never listens. so he had a 6 pack of coke in his trailer from last year and he dumped it in the hole he is prepping. he said I told him its all about the brix and sugars. if his plants turn out killer this year, how can I say it was a bad idea. might have to dedicate a thread to it, lol

Well, the coke will supply phosphoric acid, sugar, C02. The acids would dissolve a bit of limestone in the soil....stimulate microbial activity....probably gonna be a great grow!

Golf course dudes know about this mixture:

1 cup ammonia
1 cup coca cola
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1 cup epsom salt

In ten gallons of water. Massive increase in soil energy, sugars, phosphates, sulfur, magnesium.....big time green up.

They are getting frosty!

That's interesting with the coke!

Thanks bro!

I think I remember someone posting on your journal that they got a soil test back and the recommendation was for coke and/or maybe the ammonia too...I can't remember. Not that I would try it on this run, but out of curiosity, would the "golf course" recipe fit in with our high brix grows, or would all that magnesium throw things off with our mineralized soil?

No, I don't think the coca cola/ammonia thing is a good idea for high brix. It's more the the chemical fert line of thinking....low brix/good yield.
