i have been spaying with that safer 3 in 1 fungicide bug killer crap but it don'tt work that well, yellow sticky traps work, neem oil works, you probably be ok with the sticky traps, i have heard of someone who filled up the pot with sand on top and i think it worked for them

never used it but i think you want to hit the soil and plant unless your flowering than stick with the sticky traps

thats a nute not a bug spray if it keeps bugs away its because bugs are less likely to attack a healthy plant

true,, seaweed is high in nitrogen,, but the seaweed smell and taste will keep critters off and keep them from munching down or laying eggs.... ive never tried spraying infested plants,, i never let my girls get that way... i just thought i would mention it in case next time around he wanted to try that to beat the problem before it even exists

i had a problem with these flies in my bud plant too n i lookd up a way to get rid of them..they leave a lil larvae that looks like a maggot in the soil n u jus gotta get sum peroxide 3% and mix 1 part of it with 4 parts of water and i added a lil more n jus poured it in the soil and havent seen ne bugs since if there r flies still flying around after u put the peroxide then put plastice wrap over the soil so it cant lay eggs...my only problem as of now r the millipedes
