Sulphur for bugs

[MawMawAngela]

I use a powdered, wettable sulphur dust dissolved in water to spray my plum trees, so I'm wondering if anyone has used this for bugs around the pot plants.

I have a small four-plant setup under a fluorescent agrolight in my shed and the light is attracting bugs. I sprayed the room with Yard Guard today and that took care of them for the day, but can I spray them with the sulphur? Would that help?

Thanks,
MawMaw

maw maw...

Isn't the suplphur for mildew and fungus.....?
You are a gardner, so pretty much treat your MJ plants the same as you would any plant...
And during flowering, don't spray anything on them that you dont want to smoke..


Are the bugs that you saw harmful to you plants?

cheers

no, mostly just flying bugs that are attracted to the light. Sulphur is good for fungus and mildew, but also just about any kind of bug that eats the leaves. You spray once a month and after a rain because it washes off. I think I will use it till flowerings since it is good for veggies, too. I'll let you know how it comes out.
thanks!
