dip them in the gnarly when they are little( avid, forbid, flora mite) spray a couple times with them as well. I have seen the most brutal outbreaks on the planet. South county has had them bad for 2 years now going on 3. I have seen whole crops take a shit and it can get out of hand easily. Its getting to the point where people won't even trade clones in my neck of the woods. Always good to hit them with the brutal stuff real real real early and just prevent with clean stuff the rest of the way. Ive also noticed if you start to have a problem with them keeping them pumped up with food helps tremendous.

3 years back and before that I only used lady bugs and mantis but, the past couple years they arn't cutting it. The forbid and avid will work if you start early like Big Apple 420 says. I'd like to use the Bioworks with predators because it's omni cert. and works with mites thrips and bud worms.Plus a bunch of other insects.
last year there was no stopping them . Forbid worked but I couldn't bring myself to spray that on my shit. so they had their way. 75% loss.

="fumble, post: 11442550, member: 348270"]I got my scope today...gotta get batteries now lol. I am about reafy to rip them out and bomb evwrything. I sprayed the clones with some neem, protek, dish soap and rosemary, tea tree, and lemon-eucalyptus oils. sigh[/QUOTE]
Fumble I think you're past the point where you can spray to get rid of them. You have to be able to dunk the whole plant several times. If you can get a atomist and use water/bleach to clean your room or tent before you start again.

BBQ AK-47 didnt have any and neither did the MK Ultra. I got so many infested cuts this winter that I have a huge quarantine area outside. Trying to train some of the predators to eat them. The mantid seemed to be doing a good job. I have not seen her lately and now the LA Con is getting spots. The Black Sour Bubble males were badly infested and I stuck them in with the LA COn for a short period.

All new everything next round.

The indoor girls seem to bee hanging in there. The AzoMax seems to work well. I just need to make sure I keep up with the treatments. I will move them outside for a May harvest.

I'm hoping the bioworks take care of the problem. I don't have bugs at the moment. I'm getting ready though. I'm going to be posting the molt-x faqs soon as I get it from Nora. That for hydro !:leaf:o_O

we should have gotten the green clean Fumble.. Although you were so far into flower when we found the bugs I don't think anything besides a full on dunk would have worked . I know I'm not putting anything out in my garden until after I get some of the bioworks products.where did you find the link to them TWS?

You are not going to like What I have to say now MO. Russet mites on a plant producing seed live in the seed as it grows and go dorment. They will winter over in the seed until they germinate. pop and a new generation of russet is born. this is why we are having such a hard time controlling the bugs.

Nuggs I hear ya man I wouldn't in a million years want to spray forbid on my ish either its terrible to even consider. I took the stubborn high road with my first encounter and lost what Im guess upward of 100 elbows easy. Stayed 100% clean and was very unfortunate. Since I will spray those things we hate to even mention but I do it when these girls are around 4 weeks old and I hit them every 4 days or so with something different. Once you get through that first 3 weeks of using the hardcore stuff or at least in my case they go another 5 months at least without anything that isn't organic or omri label. I have heard a million different people suggest that its a 30 day residual or systemic for 30, 45, 60 days so I make sure I at least double the biggest number of days someone has mentioned. I pride myself on clean clean clean smoke that is often hard to find anymore.


Adower does mighty wash work? I think it helps… anything will help its always up to the person putting the time in. I look at it like this… If i routinely spray you in the eye with dish soap will it kill you? Not even a little bit but will your eye be very red and bother the shit outta you making it harder to see, use or be more sensitive? hell yea…its literally that battle. If you wanna stay clean it involves you spray multiple times a week and cutting infected sections off the plant. If you slack a second or take a day off it will be doubled by the next day. Nuggs says he lost 75% so he knows exactly what I am talking about…. shits no joke and should never be taken lightly.

I agree. I was just pointing out id rather spray mitewash in late flower vs anything else. Mitewash is just frequency charged water. No other additives. You can spray it all over everything without having toworry about it damaging the buds. Just make sure they dry out.
