Let's see all outdoors

[Dforce]

I know it’s hot down there with little humidity. I’m thinking heat sensitive strains. If you can give them some shade, it might help.
All the others are looking mighty fine.

You may be right sir. Hot wind has been the weather as of late. Ill be spraying with pure crop 1 from now on. Once a week or so. Cant afford to lose my weed crop.
Here go some others.

Gonna be a jungle by October. lots of super cropping going on.

Looking fantastic @W.B.elpaso

Last night, I sprayed BT and purecrop1 as it grew darker. The budding plants got sprayed from the bottom up, undersides/undercarriages, trunks, I didn’t spray the developing cola tops, just around the sides and bottoms of plant perimeters. I soaked everywhere on the other plants that don’t have the budlets yet.

Yesterday morning, i put down a thick layer of worm castings, a little manganese sulfate, a small amount of 0-13-0 Madagascar bat guano, a generous amount Neem cake, followed by a healthy layer of used soil from the two 10 gallon bags that had autos. I did both 200 gallon ladies, the 11 Roses cross in the ground, and 65 gallon Something Good feminized. I watered 24 minutes from drip system then went back and hit them with the hose heavy.

We will get the other parts of the garden before 8/4 New Moon.

The 11 Roses cross in the ground already frosting up

200 gallon ladies.

In the ground ladies still need some top dressing.

I am most grateful

@Big123

a generous amount Neem cake,

I understand that when using this it also helps against pests, as it makes the plant taste bad to them. Have you noticed this?
I just started to add a handfull in a few plants.

[Big123]

This is my 1st grow using Neem Cake 4-1-2. I added it to the soil before transplanting plants into it, along with some other goodnesses. I have nearly used a 44 pound bag, still have a little more.

I am hoping to realize increased pest resistance along with other benefits, I haven’t noticed anything quantifiable yet. I would love to see less worm damage from the moths/butterflies at harvest time I collected all the grubs I spotted and fed them to chickens when I amended the soil

Those are Some Nice Plants

[Nip]

I hate Caterpillars they really can destroy plant’s and I like the idea of putting neem cakes instead of spraying all the time keep everyone updated on how they work You’re plants are looking awesome good luck down the stretch!

[Nip]

I can say it’s been kind of fun worming my way through these plant’s and very exhausting in the heat I didn’t have plans to grow all these so close together but it was a hand that was dealt to me I’ll have a different plan in place for next year to utilize the space I have on a positive note my plant’s are healthy other than some pesky grasshoppers I’ll be rolling up some fast version sugar haze very soon all is good

[Big123]

Thank you @Nip much appreciated

[Nip]

Keep on doing what you do ! And we all will become better Growers! What does the neem do in the soil does it actually travel though the plant and protect it I wouldn’t mind doing less spraying I didn’t use neem this year last year it worked great on insects not so much pm and mold

I just stole this off the internet

Neem cake, also known as neem meal, has many uses in agriculture, horticulture, and gardening:
Fertilizer
Neem cake is a natural fertilizer that can enrich soil and promote plant growth. It contains many nutrients, including sulfur compounds and bitter limonoids, that can improve soil texture, water retention, and aeration. Neem cake can also inhibit nitrification, which prevents soil bacteria from converting nitrogenous compounds into nitrogen gas, and can make nitrogen more available to plants for longer.
Pesticides
Neem cake is a key ingredient in pesticide production and can be used to control pests and fungal diseases on many crops. Neem cake can interrupt the feeding and breeding cycles of insects without harming pollinators. When added to soil, neem cake becomes systemic in the plant, allowing it to fight off pests naturally.
Soil amendment
Neem cake can also reduce soil alkalinity and increase earthworm populations

I don’t know about you but im buying some neem cakes for my soil That’s good information glad you put this up for everyone to see

[Blackmoon]

Beautiful plants @Big123
I do a similar approach at your time of the plants growth
Cheers
Some times i forget the the neem

My bigger clone girls showing the effects of my learning curve with the new nutes. . Yellowing.
All new genetics to me too.
Getting things figured out has been a bit of a challenge.
But my 3 seed plants seem to be happiest of them all.
2 AOC Cd in front in 10 gal pots. And a PTw just in behind also in a 10.
No signs of def or even bugs. They seem to be leaving those 3 alone.
Some Slug and minor bites on the bigger ones.
Sprayed a couple times with the safers 3 in 1 fungicide to keep the wpm and septoria at bay. So far so good.

Happy weekend folks.
Puff puff. pass.

Good Job! Those are some cool plant’s!

[Bentstick]

Thank you @Nip hoping for a earlier harvest, and Nooooo or less Bud rot than last yr, we are getting closer to 14 hrs daylight things should be changing soon!

[Nip]

All my plant’s are changing The Haze is borderline ready first time planting anything fast version but I’ll definitely be checking more strains out like that Yes I agree as most do Bud Rot is my enemy Check out the Trishield im using this year I found just a small amount of decaying leaves underneath my plant’s where it’s Humid moist and dark so I just cleaned the bottom Stalks up last year was terrible I lost probably half of the Bud’s Looking Good so Far
