I've been growing inside, off and on for 15 years and each years presents new problems and often repeated mistakes. Do not use cheap timers, light poisoning sucks and wastes valuable time.I have just discovered that the bottom of my leaves are covered with mostly black and 10% white tiny ass bugs they are sucking the juice out of the leaves, they are not spider mites I've been through that lots of times. Are these little bitches thrips? How do I get rid of these guys? I picked up a bomb at the local hydro stor it was taller than the normal pyrethreum bomb @8" tall and much less expensive @ $8.00 USD I'm not certain what it was. The next day there were still lots of them on the leaves and I bombed again. Now four days later most of the black ones are gone but I still have white ones. Please someone tell me what to do. First what the hell are they and second how do I get rid of them? Once again They are mostly black very very small crawl around, and the white ones I thought were eggs move also. They cover the bottom of the leaves and the leaves are turning stippled green white. Please HELP!
Indoor, and after using a piss poor electronic digital small white grounded timer, I set the on off for 6:00 and 18:00, the lights went off at 6PM But came on sometime before 6 AM, light poisoning the plants the Sativa showed ealier and worse and the Indica which was @ two weeks from finish is starting to show, any info. Also Last night I mixed up your solution "Mite Killer" but have yet to use it. Also not to be rude but the fourth word in my thread is inside, Followed by timers and light poisoning. out
You aren't supposed to use ANY insecticide during flowering. You'll end up smoking the insecticide, as well as the daed bugs and their eggs. What you've got now are polluted, bug-infested buds. If I were you I'd immediently harvest/destroy the plants, take everything out of the growspace, bomb it, clean all equip. and set it back up, after you find out how the bugs got in there in the first place and take steps to prevent it from occuring again. It wouldn't hurt you to read a grow book either.
Why does BOG Author of "Bonanza of Green" recomend Pyretheum up until seven days before finish. Also fortunately these are in the mother room only at this point infecting about 20% of the Mothers and vegers.I do not want the infestation to spread any more than it alreaddy has.Also before I ever began growing I read indoor bible and about four others Ask Eds book guerrlla growing ect. but these references are in another town right now, But your right the best way to get started is to read reread then read it again to be certain. Do you have any helpful info as to what these bugs might be? and any tips on the light poison other than keep lights off for 12 hours consistently.
Let me ask you: what do you think happens to the pyrethium and dead pests and their eggs 7 days after you spray? Do you think A) they magically disappear? Or do you think B) you'll end up smoking them? If you chose B), how do you think pyrethium & dead bugs & their eggs taste when you smoke 'em?
I'm looking for help with a situation. First THEY ARE NOT IN THE BLOOM ROOM am I clear on that point? second I'm requesting helpful advice to two problems. Not negative feedback on a totally unrelated subjuct. If I was unclear before let me clarify. PROBLEMS 1. Bugs on leaf bottoms sucking juices, in the veg / mother room, now mostly gone due to the bombs. 2. Light poisoning, is there any way to minimize the effects after it has allready happened? I really dont need a tounge thrashing on light leaks, shitty timeres working in the room after lights out, what a bud might taste like IF THEN statements, just a little sincere helpful advice. Thank you Captn. Danger for any helpful advice on the subject at hand.
TO USE: Cover soil/medium with plastic,with lights off mist plant all over,especialy under leaves, Wait 20 mins,then spritz off with clean fresh water shaking as much water off plant as you can. The fresh water spritz rinse will remove the solution along with the desolved remains of the mites and their eggs. Will this help if they do get into the bloom room?
to tell the truth, I'm not sure if that mixture would work on thrips, I have no experience with them. The mixture did do something to my mites, but didn't eliminate all of them. The problem I can think of off hand with using that mixture on flowering girls is really how far along they are, since it puts alot of moisture onto the plants. Depending on how far along they are, you could try a hot pepper spray or a neem oil? and it pays to be nice to the people your asking for help from, now we know that you have two different problems in two different rooms, but that wasn't the case with your previous posts. So stop complaining when people have questions before they can give you the answer to YOUR problem.
