Aphid Wash

Recommended Posts

Has anyone else tried this??

I had an aphid problem, so i bought some " buzz off" , which hasn t really cleared the problem..In fact, i haven t noticed any difference...

So, i thought i d wash them off using my bathroom shower...If you hold your plant upside down, ( i put the pot in a plastic bag and wrap it tight so the loose soil doesn t drop out ), then just hose the little bastards off...Watch em drown..I ve found this to be the most effective method so far...

Although, when i tried this on my flowering plants they seemed to flower quicker, i may have shocked them.(?!)..( Maybe if you want your buds early you should give them a cold shower???)

Yes, you get wet buds...Though I ve never had bud rot..

Best to do it before you put them into flower if you re worried about that..

But, this method has an instant effect of getting rid of your bugs, and, costs nothing.

Better than spending hard earned cash on sprays that do nothing..I m pretty disappointed with my " buzz off "...

Try using soapy water on the plants that do not have buds on them.
