hey fellow growers i have the ultimate question. so i have lots of little bugs on my buds. can't really tell what they are. they look like fungas nats. little black fuckers with white wings,also other little dudes that look green and pinkish with no wings.... the question is i'm 3 weeks from harvest and these bugs cover some of the bottom buds and tops. they buds are sticky as shit and bugs won't come off.... tried compressed air,by hand,and none of this works..what do i do? help please.
No pest strips now! Don't spray anything since they are so close to harvest.
thanks.also using those. but there are bugs on the buds. anyway to remove them?our when they dry?
Are thay dead? Spider mites? Have a pic
they must be spider mites, order pet stripes...dont spray
not spider mites. had those before. to big anyway. sorry no pic.
Worst case scenario: you're just gonna have to smoke 'em! As long as there wasn't a gigantic colony of them, there probably won't be a huge difference in flavor or potency...but, you're probably going to have some popping going on intermittently as their tiny little bug carcasses explode from the heat of the flame!
Sorry, guess I could have made that sound a little less gross! :jointsmile:
How did you get rid of your spider mites? Did they every come back?
If you did have spider mites, you will also see little webs. In order to get rid of them, you will have to bomb the room after this crop is over. Then I would suggest using neem oil as a spray every 2-3 days. Use it all through veg and into flowering. Stop using the neem with about 2 weeks to go in flowering.
