Hey there JP! I've experienced spidermites before so I always say it pays to be worries about spider mites. I don't know if Marigolds attract spidermites but what I do know is they're an absolute disaster to get rid of. In my experience if they're there they're there and no amount of companion plants will really Change that ... But if you're looking for anti pest plants check out : coriander, Dill, lavender , sunflower or lemon balm. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Is that a bad idea?

I have discovered thrips on one of my plants and am unsure what, if anything to do about it. Is it safe to treat it with anything at this stage of flowering? Will they destroy the plants if I leave them? Any advice would be wonderful!!

Defoliacion y cortar brazos de SOG en floración Hola estoy haciendo un SOG, se me alargaron las plantas y no controle bien el crecimiento de los brazos. Creo que la floración ya esta muy avanzada para hacer defoliacion y cortar algunos brazos inferiores con cogollos pequeños y que no les llega mucha luz ¿que opinan?
