'11 Outdoor with Re Veg an Friends

Well im going to try a different size pic on this one plant, which is the Edna of course. Its to my lap now and as big as an average table top:jointsmile:. OK so i really saw no issues with the re vegged plants, till today as snails are in full attack mode. Its been raining so much im thinking they are out to enjoy it and destroy me grow. I am getting some heavy chemicals to kill the damn things. The damage is incredible as i killed at least 11 or more by picking them off and putting salt on them, but il never keep up with this many. If it drys up they will not be bad at all and the leafhopper's will stop. The plants are healthy, so when they are kept this way its not bad as far as the bugs, but the snails are way different.

This pic i took in a larger setting to try an show its size and with 5 months to grow, i could have a freaking monster giant freak of a plant. And iv smoked it so i know its killer stuff, so yield should be very interesting:thumbsup: I also wanted to show bug issues as this year is bad, but the snails destroy the bugs will eat from the bottom of the leaves, but the plants recover from the damage. The damn snails will eat hole leaves, burp:wtf:. I hope this pic will post, cuz its taking a long ass time for a single plant and i want to post other pics i took of the NL an Cross. Geez man! I hope i don't wait all night and it doesnt post, il be pissed:mad: I guess if i had something better then dial-up i might not have this problem:jointsmile:


Worked:rasta:

Well it didn't work as i thought it would show up huge, or i would have posted them together. Im trying to show bug problem, but im guessing that anyone who wants to see it has to open the link. These turned out pretty good. I think if i don't do something first thing in the morning the snails will damage my plants bad, so im getting the S7 dust. I do need to look up if it will take care of snails, i know the leafhopper's will be taken care of with this stuff, but not sure till i look it up regarding the damn snails. Also, if it would just stop raining i wouldn't have these problems:mad: I would only need to use it till it drys up and stops raining. Ok so i just looked over to the TV, cuz im watchin cops:D and it says thunder storms, which it should say ''attack of the snails'', damn slimy ass things with a big ass stomach! Its incredible what they can do. Can ya tell im pissed, oh man:mad:

NL SPREAD OUT FROM ME DIGGING FOR SNAILS

SKUNK X NL


:rasta:

Sorry about the pic problem above. Well the 7 stuff doesnt work for slugs/snails, so i got a bunch of Steel Wool to put around the bottoms of their stems. I think this will help, but im sure that there are a bunch on them now as it rained hard again last night. Because of the way the branch growth came from buds, they are just starting to harden off each day so it makes it easy for snails to chew off a hole branch. Or just ruin new growth that in time will get big. Just because they are re vegged plants makes it worse then attacks on the other ''family'' plants. Deep in the middle of the NL plant is very damaged so its stopping the new growth im anticipating. So il try the Steel Wool and try and get some of the DE that seems to be the best deterrent:thumbsup:. Will see:hippy:


:rasta:

You haven't nuked those f##kers yet? Dude, I love ya but what's up with that? Pardon my bluntness. Wheel your ass down to the garden shop. Get the large economy size snail /slug killer. Put a ring around your girls. Then spread the rest around. Do it again two weeks later. End of problem.

Well man, got em check this morning:thumbsup:, im close to a nursery but its closed today, but i pretty much believe what i have done will stop them. Pics will show:hippy:. Iv got them locked up like a prison now. I was thinking about the sand paper, but if this doesnt work, i will have to hit the nursery:thumbsup:, oh and my chair is powered:D

:rasta:

So i really don't think any snail could get through my barrier of Steel Wool. I just unrolled a few and put them around the bottom of each trunk. I really thought they would be covered as it rained like crazy last night and this is whats bringing them out. Last year i had like one snail:)but its rain so much this year its just making them come outta the ground and reign terror on my plants. I really think this will work and was surprised it didn't come up with my goggle. After the rain gets under control il be fine as keeping the plants healthy will detour the bugs away and a bit of soapy water works well for the leafhopper's. But comparing the steel wool to sand paper is a joke as if they just touch this stuff they will get injured. When i unrolled the stuff it was poking my hands as its a rough gauge type. I was able to wrap it around the the bottoms of the plants that were being attacked. This week the rain is going to not be as bad, in fact its not supposed to rain all week:thumbsup:

I just wrapped it tightly around them, using my home made weeding stick and punched it into the ground so they cant get under it. And even if they would, there is no way that they would reach the plants before they would get an injury or two, or nine:D I called wally world and the dude told me the 7dust wouldn't kill them anyway, but thats what i was going to get, if it worked for snails. They had nothing at all for snails, so that just tells ya how many people are having problems with them.

The last two pics were taken 1 hour an 45 minutes of each other, the first being what i saw when i was out to check them this morning. The second was taken after i got the steel wool around the plants. Amazing how they turn around. Had a bad storm last night and the 5 gal plant isn't rooted well enough so every time i get a wind storm it blows over. I am going to add a bit of soil to it and mound it up so it will root better. Just thought id show how fast they can recover.

I've heard that Diatomaceous Earth is a great deterrent of many bugs, including snails/slugs. It's fully organic OMRI certified so no worry about chemicals. It kills them mechanically, not chemically. Available at some garden centers. I am trying it for the first time this year....$12 4.4lb bag

Well the nursery i go to was closed today or i would have bought the Diatomaceous, but i think this will work. But we shall see in the morning:jointsmile:

Thanks for stoping in bro:cool:

Thanks man:thumbsup:

I thought id put the genetics of the Edna up:thumbsup:


(Durban, Afghani, Skunk & an unknown Sativa) pollenated a BR1947= Blueberry x White Rhino and Peak19 x AK-47. The BR1947 was a cross of Blueberry male & White Rhino female which pollenated the Peak19xAK47 female.

I like it a lot and even more now everyday:D


:rasta:

Wow your plants look amazing! I really hope I can grow shit like that in the future
