Killed the bugs, maybe the plants too :(

So I had some whiteflys fucking my plants up, and using a mixture a friend told me to use of soap, vinegar, and alcohol, this is what has happened. As soon as I saw it getting worse, I switched back to nothing but H20. I spray them a few times daily now, and have trimmed off the worse of the leaves. The only hope I have is that the new growth doesn't seem too bad. I have not added ANY nutes to my soil except a ring of coffee grounds to keep the slugs out. I hope they make a good recovery!

Lesson Learned! DONT SPRAY YOUR PLANTS WITH UNKNOWN MIXTURES! RESEARCH IT! INSECTICIDAL SOAP!

Next time use a spray bottle and "1" yes 1 drop of dish soap, mist the plant & do this when your lights or the sun is going down.

I've killed spider mites this way and kept them away.

Make sure you tell your friend he is a giant deuchebag !!! Alcohol ? WTF!!!
