this will probably frustrate a lot of you as much as I am frustrated, but there is just so many different opinions out there for marijuana cultivation. and when it comes to insecticides it is no different.

I have heard neem oil should only be used in the early stages....heard it will change the taste of your buds. I have heard garlic oil is absolutely the best!!!! but....it is not an insecticide...it doesn't kill them...it prevents them from getting to your plant in the first place....so it needs to applied right away...but the problem is a lot of pests are transplanted with the clones when you buy them so they are already there. a great site i have found for some stuff is Neptune's Harvest All Natural Organic Fertilizer they were advertising in mother earth news. great looking stuff. if you see the garlic spray it talks about how it will not affect the taste of your vegetables...i keep meaning to get a hold of them and ask about marijuana or fruits. i know most people compare tomatoes to marijuana because they are both heat loving plants, but how far does the comparison go is what i've always wondered. and then like the original poster in this thread was saying the FAQ say don't use garlic spray or pepper spray in the flowering stage.

I have heard hot pepper wax type of spray is a great insecticide...does kill the pests.

So i have heard lots of good stuff, seems to be a sound solution for how to prevent, and kill the pests in the veg stage...but what to do in the flower stage..i still don't feel like there is a great recommendation...


anyone got any organic products they have come across that are pesticides that can be used through harvest...i'm pretty sure that would be ideal... definately key though...organic... i'm not worried about spraying and killing the butterflies, bees, and lady bugs...the only reason i would want them in my weed garden is if they were going to do the job better than anything else...and that is rarely the case...they can hang out in my other gardens where i'm not as picky about the product.

thanks.
