Bugs to eat bugs
Shockolateman08started grow question 4 years ago
Anyone else go to this extreme?!? My problem is still small but it's still a problem. I was going to chuck everything and clean the space properly...did that. But they're still on the plant. Sell in bulk of 1000, so outdoor 1s the only choice.

I'm not sure why you think it's an "extreme".. It's a pretty used method by growers.
- hell, we had strawberries on the balcony when I was a child, and would catch ladybugs whenever we spotted aphids on them.
Catch some more tho. They tend to fly off, once they've eaten their fill.

Lmao it's extreme because I've been looking for them lately and when I found this one in the front yard...my wife said I looked like a crackhead looking for a bug 😳😑👌w.e LMFAO. I'm still very very......very new to all this, so excuse my stupidity in my questions. I know what you said rap a cap and I've been reading. One ladybug should suffice till harvest if it doesn't fly away. The mites are still in very small populations.

Hi brother, I also buy ladybug larvae and release them outside to fight aphids. As I have already told you before, your plant is infested with mutes and not aphids so ladybugs are not very effective. Furthermore, the packages contain the larvae and not the adult and a large population of aphids is needed because otherwise the larvae would starve (1 larva must eat no less than 100 aphids per day to survive). Just this morning I bought an organic spray with thyme and nettle essence, let's see how it goes, I have a plant with an initial mites infestation. Try it too.

I live in a country where they don't sell this kind of pest control, but I do it myself.
Ladybugs are amazing, keep on the great care!
Happy smokes!

Anyone know what causes this leaf deformity in the 3rd photo? The fingers are all conjoined instead of separate but it was the only leaf that looked liked this. Just curious to know what that is. I’ve seen this before and it always stops as new growth comes along.Week 2

I know breeders timeline for seeds is unrealistic, but this plant has gone two weeks past expections for seed. Not that I'm rushing it, but does she look ready? I'm only curious so I can have room in my tent for the next two for my perpetual setup. Thanks in advance! 😊5 years ago

Hello everyone! As this is my first grow idk how i'm doing so i have doubts, how much time do you think that the plant needs to be harvested ? I was thinking on 90 to 100 days and I see that my flowers are very skinny yet, and I would like to get them a little bit bigger.5 years ago

I know it takes time for buds to stack and fatten up. My question is, will molasses be of any benefit to me or is that for the organic grows? As I've read the sugar feeds the microbes and not the plant itself. Also how's she looking? if it was your plant what would you change?5 years ago

Do I have a Hermie?I have two girls from seeds from last year's outback crop. They are two absolutely different growing phenotypes. The one I called bastard #2 was stretching and stretching and I've done a lot of training with it and I just noticed these little balls forming under the buds.
