What have I done to my plant?

[Bullmark]

Hello all…..so I have this nice looking photoperiod plant outside that’s just a couple weeks into flower. I spotted some pest damage and wanted to act quickly, but I was out of my usual product, Dr. Zymes.
Well damned if I didn’t have some liquid Sevin sitting in the garage and went against my better judgment and sprayed her down really thoroughly.
The good news is it looks like all signs of any kind of pest is gone…….but the product has left this horrible residue all over the leaves…… white blotches/circles everywhere. See the pics.
I even brought the plant into my garage today, where it was cooler, and sprayed it down with plain water, hoping it would rinse off. It didn’t. To get it off, I have to take my finger or a wet paper towel and scrub the leaf with a fair amount of force…..clearly this isn’t gonna happen when almost every leaf on the plant is affected. It doesn’t wash off…..it has to be scrubbed. It’s like someone spilled paint on the leaves.
I’m gonna let her grow and see what happens….right now it’s the only choice I have.
Does anyone have any tips or advice…? Other than don’t use that shit again on MJ plants…..which goes without saying.
Thanks for any comments and don’t wail me too hard for such a rookie mistake.

Sorry man; that sucks. Hopefully someone can provide helpful information, but I'm a nuclear kind of guy and I'd trash if it were my plant.

Yeah, don’t use that sh*t on plants, especially in flower. Carbaryl was recently banned in Ca for home use. Potential cancer causer. It had a half life of about 12 days, so I’d go at least 4-6?weeks. You might try some kind of soap and see if the residue will wash off. Don’t do that again!! Truly the issue is more that there is no data on what happens when it’s burned, that can make some things less harmful and others more harmful. I personally wouldn’t consume it, but it’s your call. It is approved for use on vegetables.

I sprayed it about 5 days ago…..the buds were barely forming. The plant has a good 8-9 weeks.
I’ve read a bunch on carbaryl and spraying it with water periodically should decrease its presence……at least I hope.
I could always take a toothbrush and wash every leaf …..

 

[go go kid]

spray the leaves with plain water to wash it off and don't use it again, unless you like the risk of cancer

I'm pretty sure he said he did that when he hauled it into the garage.

I would get rid of it. Anticholinesterase products are not good for us. Further toxic oxides of Nitrogen are worse.

Always read the label on anything you put on consumables ( even veggies ) as well as your weed.

It is highly toxic and easily absorbed thru dermal contact / respiratory inhalation. It looked like you hosed her down .

Example:

Some growers use fan leaves to make raw cannabis smoothies - but plant matter treated with something like this can be a big problem. Always look at IPM ( integrated pest management ) thru passive control methods ( stickys / insecticidal soap / natural predators ) before grabbing a “ bottle “.

Always look whether product is listed as ornamental plant use only too.

Remember The Label is Law …

If you would have just peed on it

I’d toss the plant for sure. Definitely not worth your health.

Next time use Neem oil.
Sell/give it to someone that you hate and would like to see them die, because that's what will happen to whomever smokes it.

Can you point me to the literature on cannabis deaths related to inhalation of neem oil please?

I did pee all over myself when I saw all that white residue…..alas, too little too late.

I don't think he's saying Neem oil will kill them. But that what the OP did to the plant will kill whoever smokes it. Due to the cancer-causing properties of the pesticide.

Neem in flower seems like a bad idea for other reasons tho

Yes, exactly and I'm wondering what type of cancer and where his statistics are from.

I don't know if carbarylgen is proven definitively to cause cancer, but the EPA says it's "likely" based on one study on mice where the mice fed the pesticide developed more tumours than the control mice.

Your phrasing just made it seem like you're talking about inhaling neem oil, rather than inhaling carbarylgen/Sevin

I'm not worried about the carcinogenic problems with carbryl as much as I am with the acetylcholinesterase inhibition.
