Easty's treats - P300 LED grow

[bassman999]

They (mites) seem to always be close by but they are easily handled here with some "chili water", neem works well for deterrent, really well, and the micros...

micros?

micronutrients

micronutrients

Meaning if plants are healthier less at risk?

 

[Vnsmkr]

Well in general thats the case. Bugs are attracted to plants exhibiting "sick" traits because they are weak

I need to get a better regime going myself, but if you have a good integrated pest management program going consistently bugs wont be a worry

What about during flowering though, hope that the IPM was good enough?

It continues through flowering, just different levels...its an ongoing process all the time...if you do that though, it will be good enough, no just hoping...

I use a spray that my local hydro guy gave me, its a 'plant conditioner' as opposed to a pesticide but it's organic and you only spray it once.

Interesting stuff!
I will look it up.

Nadal will be challenging Dimitrov for the right to face Fed-man in the final.

One day I'm going to fly out of here and go somewhere where I can buy a cheap 40' container and fill with everything I want and cannot buy here (just everything for growing). Then eat the tax once when it comes here and pay the little suited guys the cash required. lol, dreams are nice.

i like this stuff too, it attracts predator insects like mantis etc, works well, been using it for a few yrs now, i spray it on already healthy plants to bring the predators so the plants will be protected before any mass offence can be launched by the baddies

Well, organic gardens can be fun at times, but so can any gardens . Currently have some fucking whiteflies, I think it came in on the newest promix (or lavamix) and since I forgot the neem those fucks are starting early. I washed everything down this morning and will hit the whole lot with a bit of soapy peppery water this evening since the fucking garden store closed for the next 5 days during the CNY celebrations...Need those neem pellets lol

have you tried those yellow sticky strips around your plants man? they work well for whitefiles, i get em bad here too

I've not yet, trying to find something that works with what I have on hand. Just gave everything a bath in water + tspn of LAB + drop of dish soap + small bit of fresh aloe. Will hit them every few days see how that works. Should take care of them until things open back up again. CNY here, everything closed already, and really no money to be spending on anything.

Couldnt stay up for the match, but in 90 minutes the replay is on.
Classic rivalry that with Nadal and Federrer, I have watched many of those over the years.
I do hope Nadal won against Gregor last night

I didnt know they would work, so Ill get some for the future

those strips really do work well, place them as near to your plants as possible, i like to shake my plants when the whiteflies are on them then watch as they fly from the plant to the yellow sticky strips...they do not go anywhere after landing on those strips ha!
