just use a tiny bit of soap to a spary bottle works greats
Lets see.
Diatomaceous earth
Tobacco
Habanero chile
Indian neem tree seeds
I believe the Cycad palm can be used to make a mosquito repellent.
Catnip- But it will attract any cat in the area.
Natural pest control is easy. Wish more people would do it.:jointsmile:
i've got a whole bunch of habernero chilli seeds and was going to just eat the chillis once grown. also i may swipe some baccy off my sister use that, thanks ericwt
neem is amazing
pyrethrin (red painted daisies... easier just to buy it already prepped, lol)

It is only pyrethrins, without the activators, so while you might say that it would be less effective, it is also FAR less harmful, as the activators are fairly nasty chemicals.
I would suggest fogging twice with that stuff, maybe 3-4 days apart, to try and REALLY knock everything down.
i got this stuff [bug clear gun] which has a guide to the number of times it can be used per veg type. what veg type would hash compare to for pesticide uses?
you mean cannabis?Quote:

i wasnt thinking that they were vegetables foxysox, only which ones do the compare to for treatment purposes. its just i had read that trating an infestd plant was ok to do if the pesticide was for use on eddibles.
garlic crush and mix with water works wonders kills everything:thumbsup:
Pennyroyal, stepped into a "sun tea" and put in a spray bottle. Not as good as neem, but decent.
my dad puts a cup of beer out every week in his vegetable garden and the bugs go into it and die
bet the town drunk loves visiting your dads garden.
