Bombing should work, but you can also dip. I've found that spraying doesn't work because it's nearly impossible to cover all surface areas of the plants. Get a 5 gallon bucket and fill it with an insecticide solution of your choice, the stronger and more toxic the better. No tree huggin safe or natural crap, unless you just like wasting time and money. Hold the dirt in your pots with a towel or piece of Styrofoam, and turn the plants upside down and dunk them. Shake them gently to get all the air bubbles out, then put them back into your grow. Also thouroghly drench the soil, pots and all surfaces of the grow area. Normally you would need to pull your lights about 4 feet back until the plants dry, but I don't think you need to worry about it in your situation. I highly doubt that they will burn with LED lights that far away. Of course if you want to easily get rid of all pests, use a No Pest Strip by Spectracide. You and others probably don't think it will work, but you and others are wrong if that's the case. The strips work wonderfully, and of course are the easiest and cheapest solution possible. Just turn off your ventilation for one night, and in the morning, all pests will be dead. I promise, as long as you follow the instructions and double the recommended dose. As far as eggs or babies, leave the strips in there for a week and everything will be dead. Really. If you don't believe me, as many others have not, it only costs about $8 to try one. Wouldn't that be worth the gamble, even if you bought 2?

hi,

aren't those no pest strips kind of toxic they say on the box that they should not be used in the kitchen or around food stuff. if they are breeding in the soil you could try getting a roll of that weed blocking cloth with some perlite to weigh it down. it will allow water and air but will act as a physical barrier.

seems like the pyrethin, flushing, and the card stock around the bottoms of the plants might have done it...thanks to everyone who helped with this, opie..we are still trying to find those strips....Db hasnt called me freaking out yet, so i will take that as a good thing...lol i will be back around 3 or 4 this afternoon, and get some good pics up there for you guys...today is day 30 of flowering...WOOOO-HOOO

One procyon 100 would grow 4 plants well yeah? or is that too little wattage per plant?

[SnSstealth]

Hey Dodo,

I think 4 possibly 5 straight single stalk or very listed plants could do very well w/ one light, as long as you have good reflection on the sides.

thanks

Hello to all..
Wow I would be afraid to try the techniquie you speak of to just straight up Dip the Plants and shake them in the water with strong toxics.

Why? Nothing to be afraid of. I've done it several times, and it works much better than spraying. The only danger is lights burning the plants if you leave pools of liquid on the leaves. Just pull the lights back after dipping.

hi,

Yes, they are very toxic. That's why they work so well. That's also why I recommend not using them during the last 3 weeks or so of flowering.
