Neem Oil
Seven dust..not sure the composition cuz I haven't grown outside in years, but Seven dust does the trick...Safe for use on tomatoes so has to be safe for buds!!
Also like he said neem oil if you want to be safe. It seems like neem taste gets on the buds if used after week 6 so be careful.
I read on one site that you could put cigerette buts in hot water over night and then spray that own your plants and it will keep bugs away.Does anyone think this is true.
This is part of a mixture if im not mistaken..pepper, lemon juice, boiled tobacco juice, and vinegar. mix that all up and you have one big natural insectiside..
Just dont let it stay on your plants past 24 hours. Go with neem oil or seven dust though alot easier and cleaner!!
I've read the same thing. I believe the toxic nicotine and other chemicals present in the cigarette are probably toxic to insects as well (except they get a whole load more per body weight!).Quote:

Yea I think I may just try it on a couple of plants and see if it works good.
