I use Azamax every 3rd feed. Just mix it in as if it is a fertilizer. 2-3 ml / gal for prevention,
10-15 mL / gal if you have an infestation.

I also foliar every 4th day with a mix of Ed Rosenthols Herbal Pesticide/Fungacide, Rhizotonic, and Einstein Oil.

I stay bug free. And when i do get bugs (i had signs of thrips a few pages back) i erradicated them before i even
saw an actual bug, i saw markings on a few leaves, but not in weeks.

Awesome. Thanks for the info :joint: I'll give it a try if these 2 packs of ladybugs I just ran out and got after I last posted don't work.

Plants are looking amazing btw!

Ya, ladybugs will eat the eggs of the mites but it's difficult for them to eat as fast as the mites
reproduce, every 3 days they can double or triple in numbers if not kept strictly in check. I'd
suggest getting on the mites really hard. Good luck though, mites are one of the worst.

I feel like a murderer now. I wasn't sure whether my Hotshot No-Pest strips would kill ladybugs or not, though I knew there was a pretty damn good chance. It just didn't list it on the label, so I crossed my fingers. Now, my area is a graveyard of two packs of ladybugs...going to have to go out and get Azamax and Einstein oil now.

Ahhh! Oh no, well you learned that hard and fast!

Azamax is a great product, it costs an arm tho. The Eds are a great inexpensive method, although
they dont have the systemic properties of the Azamax they are a bargain.

Live high, Hot shot strips are the way to go in my opinion if your in veg and dont want to screw around. They'll pretty much nuke all bugs in the room within a day, not the most natural but they work excellent. Azamax should be in every gardeners arsenol as a GREAT preventative. I've had mites 2 times from a fluke and they were eradicated in hours with the no pest strips

the same active ingredient 'azadirachtin' in Azamax is also in Mite-Rid at a higher concentrate and at $45 a bottle so a little cheaper too. one application took care of them and we get these fucked up super mites in northern cal that are immune to just about everything under the sun.

The Max Fan 6 inches were just released! Had mine pre ordered and now its beasting through
my office room with a Can 50.. The new Max has a control switch with 3 speed settings, very
effective, got the fan and the filter for $250 at the local hydro store. What a sale

They look very healthy, they are in the midst of a great
transition from veg to flower, growing about an inch per day

Hopin for 12 pounds off these 24 plants. Thatd be a pound per light which is weak, yes. But is better than what they were getting before me, and is not counting as one of my grows. I should be hitting 1.5-2 lbs per light when im rollin my perpetual.

hand triming all of that or u guys have a machine? I'd like to grab something but really can't justify it until I have 2+ lb harvests

also those new max fan 6" are badass with the speed control. wish I could find even info anywhere, seems like there is nothing online about them. would have grabbed that over my 8" max but what you gonna do.
