How goes the ladies today @Prince33? Sorry i missd the worry yesterday. Looks like maybe bugs to me too. Those ladyninjas will hunt them all down tho. Any photo updates on damage?

The Grow Guide suggests, for a natural remedy, to use Garlic Extract, Onion Extract and Cayenne in a liquid soap solution and spray the leaves.

I don’t have these two Extracts on hand at the moment, so I went ahead and sprayed the specific leaves with an insecticide soap purchased recently.

The dark spots are all gone on one under leaf, the other leaf has some left. Maybe the eggs, if they are eggs, are mostly gone except for the white spots on both leaves. Perhaps the eggs have hatched?

The Grow Guide suggests grow s companion plant like Garlic as a natural repellent.

Just the same I went and ordered 1800 premium Lady Bugs.

White flys and spider mites are just a few that comes to mind that will devastate your grow before you know what they are. It’s best to keep the grow spotless with nothing in it that isn’t needed. Good luck and happy growing

Thank ye, @Stonedagain2

Can anyone identify this light-colored critter?

A small hole has been eaten out in this leaf in photo below. Seeing this. I just went and drenched her leaves top and underside with an insecticide soap.

I’ve figured out your problem. You’ve got too good of a space built for the plant. Lay off a smidge of the pink light and you wont attract everything to your space bro. I’m not poking fun, I thinking inter-dimentionally. You see, I just smoked a bowl and I’m high lol. Seriously tho I tried to see columns of light at 6 am watchjng the chickens play and dogs potty and no luck :frowning: but I have mo Crystals. I might try using ancient arrowheads tomorrow cause beer bottles did nothing :cowboy_hat_face:

You might have a point there. I’ll Dissolve the three columns of lights and just let her be. I’ll still talk to her though.

:maple_leaf:

I don’t see the lights with my eyes, I visualize it in my head and visualize it before me. You may not see it there, but it’s there.

It’s like a muscle. The more you practice it, eventually you’ll be able to see it before you. I try to practice it as often as I can.

:cactus:

I was thinking about 30 mins ago about it. I came to the same conclusion. Just cause I couldn’t see it dudnt mean it wasnt there. And I’m serious about too good a space. It sounds irresistible to anything in the garden lol

They look like melted bodies of whatever insect you have.

If you can but some Habaneros and Garlic and you have soap you can make Ning-Icide with a mortar and pestle and of not a rock and a hard place or a blender will work too.

3-4 garlic cloves crushed
2-3 habaneros crushed
Strain through with good water and makes about a quart…
Add 1 tsp of Castile or Bonner’s soap…if not use dish soap you might have.
Mix it up in a sprayer and I will kill on contact and melt the bugs…like I think I see in your pic.
You don’t need the oil just make your own.

Spray bottom of leaves first then tops and then top of soil and sides of pot and saucer and even the ground around

Hey, @James68, got good news!

I sprayed her with insecticide soap, purchased recently, the other day and has resolved the problem.

@Skydiver posted me a natural insecticide consisting Garlic Cloves and Hababero peppers to be mortared, filtered through a quart of water, adding a teaspoon of Castille soap or dish detergent to spray.

Markets in my immediate area do not stock Habanero peppers so I’ll need to drive further to a WholeFoods Market. They carry Habanero peppers.

Been researching several high end vaporizers on YouTube. Saw a couple that appealed to me besides the DaVinci Ascent. Will study them further then make a choice.

Though I can’t understand why the DaVinci IQ costs $75 more than the Ascent. The IQ is simpler in designed compared to the Ascent.

There have been negative news yesterday on Vaporizers. There had been reports of teenagers and young adults rushed to hospital Emergency rooms suffering from respiratory problems. They have linked the problem to using vaporizers, though they don’t say what has been used in the vaporizer which I think is significant to the cause of the problem, not the vaporizer.

I suspect the large tobacco companies are objecting the use of vaporizers, cutting inroads into their profits.

Measured Schizandra Sunday. 18 August 11.5”, Tuesday 14.5”, Friday 16”. Her side branched are showing noticeable growth.

Hello @Skydiver . . .

How often can I use the Garlic/Habanero spray on her leaves, as often as I deem it necessary?
