    Sharpshooters!!

    I live in So Cal.
    Can anyone tell me the detriment of sharpshooters when it
    comes to weed?
    I think I have them under control but I am concerned
    of what they might have done so far.
    I used Azatrol and even picked them off myself.
    This is the first time I have seen them in my yard.
    I dont know how much damage they may have already
    caused. I know they have ruined grape crops before here in
    California.. but as far as pot is concerned it is a little
    more difficult to go right out and ask a stranger..
    Has anyone had to deal with these before?

    The Glassy-winged Sharpshooter.
    It is a flying bug. A leafhopper. About 1/2 inch long.
    There is no reference to it in our way of life.
    They must be rare, therefore more would know of them.
    Believe me guys, I am just finding out about them too.

    I have heard of the insect before, but not in relation to marijuana ... at least in my part of Cali, I would suspect it is a non-issue ... you could always phone up your county agriculture agent, somene like that ... have an AG college nearby ? ... :smokin:

    yeah.. when you are a grower.. it is a little difficult to call the local
    AG college and say "there are sharpshooters on my backyard project.. I am
    growing .. um . . er... do you have caller ID?"

    I bet I can ask in a round a bout way. There happens to be an AG college nearby
    and it is the nearest college to me out of the many.. just a little touchy as far
    as content of conversation you know..

    "Mr. Ag-guy, I have some bugs buzzing around my tomato plants, my neighbor is an old farmer, and he called them 'sharpshooters', ever heard of them ?" ... whats so hard about that ? ... :smokin:
