heh there's more than one way to skin a cat I suppose.. I interpret this last to mean, send those buggies to their firey demise... a flamethrower perhaps? The shops need to start stocking those things, lol!Quote:

Okay don't forget to knock off the rotenone like, SOON, before you get bud formation. It takes a while to break down. Also since it is so strong, be careful of possible light sensitivity if you overdo it. It shoudn't take too much, promise! :D Like only a couple applications. And keeping your temps low slows down trhip reproduction.
Sigh. all the stress turned 2 of the plants hermie.
this suuucks
Dude, I'm so there with you, I just lost a BC-III to hermie from stress from my mistreatment of thirps. Hopefully I caught it and eliminated it in time. I have 2 rooted clones of the same plant and I'm wondering whether to keep them or not...
I am going to be searching out bug bombs today. Hopefully the one garden store in my area will have them.
start hanging a No-Pest Strip in your room (not necessary for it to be in the cabinet, etc. itself), and you will probably never have a bug problem - remove it a couple weeks before harvest - I've used them for many years, never a bug, and no noticeable surge in brain damage :wtf: just kidding, they are safe enough :smokin:
lol "I'm completely sane! It's the rest of the world that is crazy!"Quote:

an hour or so of the low 40's should do the trick; or at least break the life cycle in more than one stage.
