Ok to use?
Aeriesstarted grow question 4 years ago
I'm going to be making some insecticide with oil and washing up liquid. The most eco friendly for want of a better term liquid I could find is in the pic below. Is it ok to spray on my girl? I have identified green fly and thrips.

Hello.. Hope you are well.. Yes i have used that myself and will do ur dishes great! 😂.. Only put a few drops into ur spray bottle.. It doesn't need to b super concentrated.. It will ger rid od of the flies and keep many other bugs at bay.. Neem oil with garlic extract n a little drop of ecover will work wonders.. Try to spray plants in morning and nite for 3-7days n watch out for any mote bugs.. Stay safe n gud luck with ur girls.. 👍🍀

Ideally.. If u want to b planet friendly then just ask ur local hydro store for natural predators.. They work amazingly fast n clear problems.. 👍🍀

Hi dude, green flies might be some aphids. ecover zero is indeed "eco friendly" but I wouldn't be fast in using it for the plant...there's other methods. One thing to have in mind would be...how are the insects affecting your plan? any spots, leaf bites?
Get yourself some diatomacious earth; you can put it on top of the soil and will prevent anything from getting near your plant's roots and make a light mix with water and spray it on the foliage and this will protect it from any insects. Also neem oil has good properties. Also if you grow outside, would be great to consider some plants that will help you and your plant. Things like clover (increases the nutrients in the soil) and camomile (good against insects and fragrant plan to mask other smells), etc
Best of luck

What is the right way to place yellow sticky traps?I'm having some fungus gnats and was planning to begin LST in a couple of days so I can't keep the traps in the pot near the soil like I have them now. What would be the right way to place them to catch the gnats without touching the plant? Thanks!Week 3

Spiders in the outdoor garden, good or bad?I was out in the garden tending to my ladies and came across a couple of spiders. I know spiders are supposed to eat other bugs, but that also involves a spider web. So, my question is should I leave the spiders alone? Or should I kill them as I find them, like other bugs?

How to remove Mites before harvest, after final discharge, in some natural way so as not to harm the buds?I did a defoliation, but I saw that there are few mites still close to the buds. I'm going to harvest this week and I would like to know how to eliminate them so that I don't have problems drying them or smoking them in the end.Leaves. Too few

Identify bug / larvaAny idea the bug / larva? Reapplied insecticide soap. Might need to change plans if she starts flower before they're dealt with. For additional reference see diary, and also I have tomatoes and peppers in the same "garden". Pics are at 60x magnification - first 2 on plant.

I'm under attack!I think I have a solo predator here guys! The damage is localised to the left main branch in 2 places and the top of the main cola and just below.
I have made up some washing up liquid pesticide and drenched the whole plant and vegetation around.
Could it be something else?
