Diatomaceous earth works pretty good if your looking for an organic solution, just don't apply it to plant that's flowering. If you want pristine looking plants you'll need to build a greenhouse. Slugs are easy to get rid of...leaf minors are something you'll have to live with if your plants are grown out in the open.
I was looking into some of his beans, but I'm pretty set for now and I don't feel like being greedy heh, but you must be stoked to have some EMC genetics, that's a blessing. I've read smoke reports on pure kush before me likey.
Found some:

Now I just need to get them to ship it!
puna for ages i've looked for the radio frequency they use, i've downloaded every iphone 5-0 app there is. They talk on a combo of aviation frequency (tells ATC where they going, their operations etc) and their own (discussing ripping plants) methinks you would have to get a legit radio scanner and just keep looking for it.
if you look carefully, you can see their little greenish bodies, poke them with a needle and they are gone at no damage to the plant, although it takes a while to get an infested plant clean using this method! I suggest being EXTRA stoned.
D.E. is great, but if it gets even a tiny bit of water on it, it becomes useless. If I had an indoor op that shit would be sprinkled all over the floor walls everything, cus it works well.
I don't know if you're all thumbs or what "Grassman"? But we sit here and listen to them communicate from Chopper to vans....on our iPhones! Perhaps it's just Big Island style, but it works here!
one thing that I like about puna bud, he tells it straight, lol. he pulls no punches. hahaha intimidating at times, but good in heart and means well. hope all is well with u puna. kkday and I was planning to visit big island one day. kkday wants to buy some land for growing. when we do get there, we'll check you out. if you know of any prime spots for cheap, let us know. take it easy puna. and by the way, you talk to budd ybudman or celtic vixen lately?
no reason to pull any sun leafs aka fan leafs. just let it do it's thing
don't pull any of your leaves! Tuck them under branches if you have to, but don't cut! Plant will suffer to much!
Your correct, water makes D.E. less effective, but it does dry out and its effective again. I failed to mention that D.E. should be used as part of your Pest Management Plan, and certainly not by itself. I use about 5 or 6 organic products as part of my PMP.
Yeah, the Dr. Is probably right about it being leaf miners. If they're little yellow squigly lines then it's leaf miners. If it looks like wet or dried up slime then it's slugs. It's probably leaf miners though. Tomato plants get them here a lot too,
Simply cover them from precipitation , be sure to ventilate the project if the rain continues.... i have all outdoor no pots ...raised planters heavy timber construcion log cabin style...it takes me alone abt 7 min to cover 200 squre feet of soil ...looks like a rain delay in Detroit....slappin a tarp.
