How to Get Rid of Planthoppers | Grow Weed Easy
Planthoppers can attack and infest cannabis, leaving a unique cotton-like growth while they suck the life out of your plants! Planthoppers also spread plant diseases, so you want them away from your plants as soon as possible.
the brown stuff flakes off so I'm guessing its shit from the bugs?
Thank you for replying!!!
Yeah I would remove the worst affected areas. Maybe spray down the leaves with some water and try to remove as many manually as you can. I wouldn't spray any chemicals on em this late in the game. Are the plants outdoors? Or is there an open window or something? Or perhaps a pet brought them in?
probably my cat but he dont go in the grow room at all. and i'm gonna cut out the bad areas and will also give a spray. thanks a ton.
No problem. Try to only spray the leaves don't wanna get anything on the buds even water, if possible. Once you make it to harvest you can do a diluted h202 bath to get the bugs/shit and secretions off the buds.
Damn thanks a lot!!!!
it could be, in that case you should be able to find an adult thrip somewhere on a leaf for confirmation. I've had thrips. twice actually. Once I knowingly accepted a plant with thrips because i wanted the genetics. Thrips are no biggie. next time, you wanna spray some spinosad/insecticidal soaps during veg so they don't get out of hand during flower. At this point, its going to be a struggle.
If it's thrips there's going to be stages as said before. Also thrips damage doesn't flake off as they suck the chlorophyll from the leaves and they're usually speckled all over the leaves. I'd kill the bugs as best you can either way.
I will get to looking, cross my fingers it's not but the little bugs I saw with loupe look very similar been doing research ever since I found em. I will definitely be taking precautions in the future.
I have no problem just scraping, plenty of seeds to go and my state just went REC. But would like to salvage if possible the plant don't look unhealthy and I did cut the cola with the bad area already killed a bunch of the little bastards and gonna spray it next. hope it don't get bad not much I can do really right?
Sticky traps can help. Cleaning the space. Organic people like to add lady bugs(not even kidding). There are other options too. Keeping you space clean helps, lysol helps.
