When it comes time to harvest, what is the best method for removing the web? He has built a small, but very dense web near the cola and I don't want to damage any of the trichomes.

Spiders don't eat your greens.. they munch on other little critters and many of those are critters that do munch on greens.. So catch em and put em all around your grow. Of course lady bugs eat meat also and spiders eat them so it becomes a which get the job done.. Not having all the little critters munching meat it why little critters that are Vegans can get so out of control indoors.. Ain't nothin like a good cut of meat..
Yea. I have a spider livening in my grow room. He and I came to a draw. He kills bugs and I don't kill him.
i would remove the web when you are flushing, and do it all by hand, you will knock some trichs, but not too many. and i know it sounds gross, but if there was any tiny bits on a bud, the fire would clean that..
spiders, lady bugs, and worms :thumbsup:
Thanks for all of the replies. HighTillIDie understood what I was getting at. It is almost time for harvesting and I want to get rid of the web when I do without damaging (or minimizing the damage) to the trichomes on the cola.
Sorry, but I don't know what "flushing" is. Can you explain that to me?
Flushing is running lots of clean water through your grow medium
Like Dr.Bloor said, you run lots of water through your medium. I think you're supposed to start doing it about 2 weeks prior to harvest. This gets rid of all the salt build-up, and possible chemicals. Your herb will taste much better this way...Quote:

Uh oh! My plant is almost ready to harverst. I guess a few days of this will have to do.
Does it have to be purified water? Can I just use tap water? Doesn't flushing knock off a lot of the trichomes?
you can flush with tapwater ... it won't knock trichomes off, because you shouldn't be wetting the plant, just the soil ... :smokin:
