Not the best idea, most of the pests that affect cannabis are numerous and small. Fungus gnats, spider mites, aphids and thrips.
These are all better handled by smaller predators. Mantis eat larger things that are both pest and predator. If it cant fit nicely between their raptoral forlegs/forearms its not up their alley.
You'd have better luck with predatory mites or nematodes or BTi. Indoor is easier to manage then outdoor.
If this is outdoor, can only plant things like dill and marigolds to bring in other predators like tachinid flies, hoverflies, ladybugs and parasitic wasps. They love cluster flowers like dill and cilantro. Look into bait crops if you have issues with some bugs and companion planting for attracting the beneficials.
Good Luck!

Outdoor topping?Wondering if I should top my outdoor grow. I have read both directions. Topping will make bushier and seems to be the thing to do indoors. Should I top my outdoor plants? This is my first grow. Or Should I just let them be to flourish?

?Hey guys!
I’m wondering wether I’m doing anything wrong? I’m following the Bizz nutrient schedule. At the minute it’s hot so watering probably every 2 days. The buds that have formed are quite small is this because my outdoor conditions are not great. I’ve had a lot of rain.Week 6

- I have a greenhouse ceiling that covers 50% of the terrace
- should I grow the plants always under this ceiling, or if it is beneficial to expose the plants to direct sunlight?
- If so, how old the plant has to be to expose it to the sunlight? I don't want to burn my seedling

Male or FemaleSorry, I have to ask. A good friend of mine showed me his beauty today. Then he asked it's gender. I had to laugh. I've not seen a male before so I have no clue. So I asked if he minded if I took a couple pics and asked on here. What say you?

Slow Growth and Leaf IssuesTransplanted outdoors over a week ago and have noticed slow growth and new leaves have little holes and yellow spots on them. I've checked for bugs but can't see anything. Could this be nutrient-related? Or shock? Ph levels? Too rich soil? Any help is appreciated. Cheers.
