Well, this is new how screwed am i ? Should i cut my loses or is there something i can do to rectify the situation also what are those clear bubbles, is that sap?
Got any pics of the bugs?
No but i have a sticky track thats catching them. The look like little white specks
Got a magnifying glass or microscope? Almost sounds like aphids
Ok is so what can i do?
Im pretty sure they are not aphids. These are small and white . Ill try to get you a picture
Just for your reference. They almost appear white to the naked eye.
Interesting…
Whats that?
If you’re out west, maybe these?
The link to Amazon :
I’m just getting into this product. You can research it yourself and see what the benefits are in preventative care and also in fixing problems like the one that you have right now.
I don’t have those problems that you have, but I did have a huge problem with fungus gnats, even after using neem oil mixtures. I just started using this yesterday to deal with the few that’s still around.
The Purecrop1 was referred to me by @Caligurl . Maybe she can help answer some of your questions about this.
Wishing you all the best
@Budbrother. I hear you know a thing or two because you’ve seen a thing or two .
Thank you, i was looking at crop defender 3. @Caligurl by chance you have and information on this product and problem?.
Looks like white flys to me as well. Haven’t run into ‘em inside. Too late to spray Azamax. Haven’t used Purecrop1. I don’t know how late you can spray that, or if it works for whiteflies. Outside, they tend to swarm at dawn/dusk. I’d turn your lights all the way down (u pick). Have a vacuum on hand ready to go. Shake the plants, and suck em out. Zip up and let ‘em land, say 3-5 mins. Repeat as often as needed. Not a cure but a way to control until harvest.
Ive read that crop defender 3 is safe up to harvest. But i might try tour idea first . I have sticky traps that seems to be helping. No where near an infestation but i still got 4 weeks to go.
You can spray PC1 right up until harvest! It’s that safe… and the plants actually really like it!
Thank you so much will get it ordered asap.
Did as you said while waiting for pc1 to come vacuum the girls didnt see any at feeding time today.
Was able to find pc1 at my some what local hydro store. Did two treatments at half the recommended dosage. Looks like its working saw only a few ( like 4 ) during the second treatment. No smell or residue, hell not that i wanted to but it dont even taste bad lol. Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and suggestions. Happy holidays and happy growing.
