Bish Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 I really wouldn't worry about a few pests on an outdoor/greenhouse grow twink. My outdoor Crit Mass & Blue Widow are riddled with pests, leaves being munched, etc...the bigger the plants get the more you don't notice the damage. Let nature take its course. I personally wouldn't spray my plants with washing up liquid. Yes you can use two or three drops as a wetting agent. That's probably what he was on about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlad (the impala) Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 dunno about fairies mate - bit lightweight to my mind, what you really need is an ogre, but you could try pixies or elves! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bish Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 (edited) i noticed they dont seem to go near the j/h plants just the afghani,strange eh!!!!! Aye it sure is twink. I've got spider mites on my indoor Crit Mass (Afghani parent), but they ain't bothered about the four other vars i've got indoors.

The_Embalmer Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Never had a problem with insects. We've got 6 cats that take great delight in dealing with that type of vermin. Like to have chew occasionally, fair deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Embalmer Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 Seen these little buggers years ago, not on this type of grow though. I think my mom told me they were caterpillars from the cabbage white butterfly which is very common in the UK (stand corrected if not) They are voracious munchers of leaves, get rid ASAP.

The_Embalmer Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 Hi Twinkle, Check out what I think they are before commiting yourself to a resolution. Any. insect/vermin contol remedy will not directly effect your plants. Shit, these huge multy-million pound grow industries spend millions on R&D on combatting this type of viollation of natures pure process. Nature DOES what it is meant to do. Man = Nature, Man loses, but we can cheat coz we are clevererer. Insects do what they do cos that's what they do. Me -"You ate my plant you fucker" Insect - "Nice grow mate, make sure you got me and my mates on a close up on 420" SQUASH THE LITTLE GREEN BASTARDS.
