Neem Fuckup

I would like to start off by saying I’m sorry to this beautiful plant and to myself for being an idiot and using Neem. I believed Monterey Neem Oils claims on the bottom that says it can be used to harvest. I should’ve researched that you obviously aren’t supposed to use it in flower, but I forgot and sprayed it week 3 or so.

I know it gets absorbed into the flower, but they’re not bursting at the moment, so would a wash/flush for the next week or two save anything?

Or am I really really screwed? :wall:

Neem in flower is a no no. With that said the earlier you do it the less of an issue it is.

Have any pics of the plant?

3 weeks into flower isn't that far into flower.

It can be used up until harvest. But that's for vegetables and other crops you can wash off. Those claims are invalid for cannabis. I'd just rinse them down with plain water and dry them off in front of a fan, put them back in the tent, and keep growing.

Did a panic spray down last night and started a slow flush of the roots. So I’ll keep my prayers to the sky and push on.

Anything else I should be looking for come harvest time? The smell is pretty gross right now, and I know i’m sensitive to toxins like that.

Bg harvest you won't know a thing tbh. Its so early right now.

The other thing that might happen is it might brown some pistils early. It will be ok. New ones will grow.

No need to flush anything. Many people use neem drenches to kill fungus gnats and neem meal is also a soil amendment. Just keep growing. It's all you can do.

Been seeing the brown ones for a couple days now. Good to know, they looked pretty abnormal.

Relax I did 2 applications around week 2-4 of flower . I unfortunately had to harvest one plant early at week 6 or give it away to advanced stages of pm . So I cut for early harvest . A Sativa . Still ripped young . Either way . Mid cure , i tried a little nug . Tasted just fine . As long as you didn’t use entire bottle In one treatment. I think you’ll be okay lol just my opinion lol
