Help! Stem borer problem?

Nicoddiostarted grow question 4 years ago

Help! I just found a couple holes in my banana blaze stems with some small egg-like stuff coming out of them , it looks like my first grow (outdoor) and I think it was some sort of stem borer/moth . Anybody has some advice how to get rid of them? Is it actually a stem borer?

Hi Bro, sorry to say this but you a have a bastard worm digging actively your stem. What you see coming out of the hole is a chewed bolus. Hurry up!! First thing to do is to spray through the hole (with a long neddle) a solution of water/soluble sulphur/salt (or a synthetic pesticide in extreme cases) you have to spray generously with a such pressure. Then finish the bastard introducing a very thin metal wire (braided electric davo) to prick and kill the worm deeply. They belong to Cossus Cossus" family, you can use also nematodes like "Neoaplectana carpocapsae" or "Neoaplectana feltiae". C'on Bro👊👊

Minor damage to a few leaves found today - what is it?I am trying to determine the cause of damage to a few leaves that was observed this week. It may be two different problems. On a few leaves, I see brown spots which may have originally been white. On another 2 leaves, I see a burn hole through the leaves with brown edges.

You think topping my plants to early stunted the growth of my plants. I gave my dad(lol he has 40 years of grower cannabis experience) the same seeds mine nearly grew to 3 feet while hes is growing over 8 feet tall.

How are my plants looking? The photo with the biggest leaves is day 7. Am I under-watering or over watering? Should I be adding nutes soon? Is this comparable growth to other successful NLA grows?
