Day 63
Ok we got 2 girls drying out in the cupboard (critical and LSSH 2), stinking my room out😂 Other 2 still going strong, will be harvesting in a few days.
Will update with harvest and smoke reports when it’s dry and weighed up.
One love ✌️
Hey if you are really in week 6 of flower you can still take action in against the flies. These plants should stand for 4-6 more weeks and that's enough time for white flies to really become a problem
THey lay their eggs by the 100s, I would not cross my fingers. I had a massive infestation on strawberry plants and laid waste to the white flies with water + green soap + methylated spirit. That's outdoors where they have predators
They have soft bodies and are mega stupid, loads of things will kill them but as always the eggs are the problem.
Vacuum them up as good as you can. Hang sticky traps, flies will fill them completely if they manage to reproduce well. I have read that a Dr Doom pyrethrum fogger is effective and won't affect buds. Not available for me but maybe you are blessed. Hydrogen peroxide mixed with water can be sprayed safely. 35% at 7ml/L. Some people report using neem oil until late in flower, others say it should not be done and that it affects flavor. Trim the bottom 1/3 of your plant because the lower leaves are an invitation for pests.
Good luck, beautiful grow
@FizzyBuddz, alright, I got mites and shit in week 7 so I too faced the same problem that I could not really spray anything serious. If they are root aphids you can also easily attack them and a variety of bad things with a simple pint of 3% H2O2 to a gallon of water. Might be a good idea anyway since they came from under the pot. Be very aggressive about cleaning after harvest and act like you have a full blown infestation for the next run in the same room is my recommendation =) better safe than sorry 👍
@BillMonroe, just gone in to week 7 now bro, 2-4 weeks to go by the looks of it so not looking to spray them with anything at this stage.
Will take away the lower growth again see if that helps.
Thanks for the advice
Thanks bro! Luckily I managed to control the white fly problem, the numbers started to drop down and now they are nowhere to be seen! Will post update on yield as soon as there off the stems and in jars my friend.
