whats up guys well a couple days ago my friend dropped by he had run out of room in his grow room and had a few clones left over so he gave me 3 of them i have no idea what strains they are.this is my second grow last year i had 2 white widow plants but they got stolen about a month and a half before harvest the buds were very premature wich pissed me off because not only did my plants get jacked but they got jacked by a complete retard.well anyway i went to check on them today and the bottom leaves were almost completely devoured by these little bastards im completely broke so i cant go out and buy insect repellant ive heard somewhere to put a couple drops of soap in a spray bottle and spray the plants down would you guys recommend this or should is there better home remedies out there that you guys would suggest any advice would be appreciated

pick said bugs off by hand? lol jk but idk about the soap i heard the too and sprayed some soap water on my grape vines and it burned the leaves off almost.
 
ok well i got 2 gallons of soapy water with alot of soap and didnt put it on the plant but i put it around the plants to create kind of a barrier around the plants do you think this will work? or what should i do is there a better way or what?
 
Canola oil and a FEW drops of liquid dish soap is an old school method, the sulfur in the oil keeps the bugs away, just make sure to constantly shake the container when applying or else the oil will settle out. I scatter irish spring soap and moth balls around my grow mostly for animals but ive heard moth balls can also help with insects.

Other modifications include chopping up garlic and I believe its cayenne pepper? and letting those soak in the oil for a couple days before straining and using the process mentioned above, this adds some extra kick the bugs hate but i wouldnt suggest using it during flower
 
thank you very much chronic coinoisseur your post was very helpfull i will try oil soap and water method right now and ill get some mothballs tomorrow thanks again
 
jesus all those ideas are horrible!! azatrol, or azamaz.. there azanactrin extract pesticides which are ORGANIC and derived from neem and a few other natural sources. its a bit pricey, but completely worth it, kills everything that eats your plants but does not harm bees
 
dude i dont have ANY money i mean every penny i earn is going to debt i had to barrow a bag of soil from my friend because i couldn't afford to go buy one myself lol . thank god i have plenty of fox farm from my last grow. thats why i was asking for home remedies. i already sprayed my plants down i put a drop of oil and two drops of soap into a spray bottle and very lightly sprayed my plants so the damage is already done i appreciate your reply's tho
 
well i went to check on my plants today and their fine not burnt or anything and it looks like the bugs have been leaving them alone
