I imagine that’s one of the more efficient ways at prevention and controlling pests. The predator bugs should focus on the stems and leaves while the nematodes do their work in the soil eating early stage pupa.

I've run purple crash, 2 phenos in the first run and of course I didn't save a clone of the better one, it was a sweet grape punch leaner with just a hint of rubber. I have a 3rd pheno in flower I'll try n post a pic tomorrow. I think any of those 3 would be a cant go wrong situation. I know that canyon is killer og and the gmo if its the same one that's in the cowboy cookies its fire too...

Really nice!!Nice! I also bred the same jelly pie father to the one jelly pie female I decided to keep....this was the result. Not too shabby!View attachment 4641960
was planning to keep a male, but He had different plans, pollenated my room week 6 of flowering.(sneaky bastard) It’s a shame I didn’t end up keeping.
Here’s a pic of wedding crashers x jelly pie
and dosidos x jelly pie got a purp and green pheno. thought accidents only happened to others and not me.

For what it's worth, they are one of the easier pests to get rid of. It will annoy for a while though while you get it under control. Happy hunting!

Terrapin,
Some other commenters already mentioned it but I'll just throw my two cents and agree with them. It doesn't look like a thrip; at least not the type that are in my region. There could be more than one species of thrip though. I'm feeling too "lazy" to look it up.

That does not look like the thrips I get either. I think the smaller ones I get are flower thrips if I'm not mistaken. 2 Spinosad treatments 3 days apart seems to get em out of my house and back outside where they belong. I spray the foliage and the soil surface. That thrips you got there is on some TGH (Thrips Growth Hormone) fuckers swoll. Fresh out the joint thrips.
I wouldn't use pyrethrin indoors mate. That shit, at least the concentrate I have, wreaks like gasoline. Takes 3 days to get out of the house at a 1:100 dilution (that's 10ml to 1000ml? right? Fucking brains deadass today). It says it's food safe but I don't use it on my food crops either. Organic Garden Vegetables sprayed with gasoline don't make much sense to me.

Yeah those fuckers are big compared to everything else I’ve seen. I’m getting those nematodes as soon as I have the extra cash for a big pack. I’ll do another spinosad treatment tomorrow, and maybe get some Bt and start alternating that in. I’ve never considered using pyrethrin because it seems too toxic.

Not the best pic but this is really really good! Tastes like grapes/ berries and has lots of potency. The only other female I got was a star dawg leaner I guess and I wasn’t anything like this one. This is that one I revegged. Now I’m on my third run with this one.

Help please!!!!Okay so so I guess it's spider mite season. I just found three small plants in my flower room with them.
I immediately took them out. They do have Bud on it and it is harvestable but I don't know what I should do.
If I chop it down cut the leaves off and put it in my bedroom in front of the AC on cold will that kill them or will they just fall off and infest my house somehow..
It seems contain to those three plants right now. However I think I'm going to call the rest of the room early. An attempt to stop them from spreading what do you guys think

One of the reasons I decided to use spinosad as my primary bug killer is that it can be used systemically (pour it into the soil and it makes the plant toxic) for mites, apparently. I haven’t had mites yet so I can’t say for sure if it works, but this is worth a read. I’m thinking of adding some to my next watering because I saw something that looked like a (dead) spider mite today when I was doing a follow up search for thrips. That cheap soil from Lowe’s caused me some issues. This is a good cautionary tale. I’m glad that perlite is back in stock and I can go back to making my own, but now I won’t feel totally comfortable until I get the nematodes established.

Here’s bodega #1 at day 31. She’s looking really nice, and I’m sad the clones all died. May be worth revegging but I just ordered some gear from BOG to continue the bubble gum hunt.

worth the Google.
HOW TO KILL SPIDER MITES 100%: " Naturally - no chemicals"
anybody try it yet. I no ima use this method I TRUST BRUH !!
www.rollitup.org
Go hard or light don’t matter, ventilate Heavily right after spray to avoid bud rot.
Harvest any week after last application.
Natural, effective, doesn’t disrupt potency nor terps.lol no traces of funny stuff. someone says otherwise their living in myths.
If not yet fried, spider mites will readily make there way elsewhere to find more suitable Plants/environment to feed and repopulate.
Hope this helps. Beats washing buds after harvest like a loser.

I dust with DE around my grow area and kitchen but that’s just to keep ants and roaches out. I didn’t get any plant pests last year besides the caterpillars outside but I sure am getting the crash course right now.
My next batch of clones (chem pie wedding pie leaner) already has roots and it’s only been a week. All 4 cuts rooted super fast with no issues. Assuming the buds are good this one’s definitely another keeper. It’s also starting to look like one of the bodega clones may survive. No roots yet but the cutting never rotted and the leaves are starting to grow. Not quite sure what causes that. I think it was the heat wave that rotted the stems on the last batch though. I’m still using the same water in the cloner.
The thrips seem to be gone from the veg tent but I’m going to spray once more before I transplant and flip that (stardawg leaner) chem pie. I did see some possible spider mite activity on some lower leaves in the flower tent. No visible mites or webs but the leaf damage looks like spider mites. I’ll keep an eye on it for a couple days, but I might be trying the systemic spinosad sooner rather than later. No point in posting a pic of that yet. I can’t get enough detail
Outdoor plants seem really happy. I’ve had some grasshoppers munching the fan leaves but I’m not worried about them. Last year the caterpillars didn’t get really bad until late September.

What is your cloners res temp?
You can add some H2O2, bleach or poolshock to the res to if you’re getting any slime, rot, or foul smell.
As for the pests, what I’ve found works best is alternating applications of Azamax, and a mix of neem oil, dr. bronners soap, with an essential oils blend from BuildASoil.
For outdoor I add Montereys garden insect killer to the regiment.
With these preventative measures I haven’t had any bug issues in years.

It’s hot. 88f according to my most accurate thermocouple. Summer is on the downswing now and when it gets cooler I’ll want the extra heat from the pump, but I’m thinking about switching to a powerful air stone for the warmer months. Something that will really froth up that water. I use a little Bacillus amyloliquefaciens d747 (natural fungicide) in the water and that seems to keep all the gross stuff out. I’ve got the top sealed up well enough that algae doesn’t really build up. Closed cell foam inserts that keep the water totally out of the light and an opaque lid. What I really need is good climate control, but I live in a rental and I don’t want to buy anything like a mini split that I have to permanently install.
