uk bug problem help

[Brother Schenker]

Well don't bloody well spray them with poison, ya fucken fools!!

A bit of soapy water, sprayed. Washing up liquid (for dishes) works fine.

No poisons.

Hunt out those fucken bugs. Look under the leaves of other plants around. Look around the ground.

Can you build a little plastic-sheet tent around them until the bugs go somewhere else?

But don't use insecticide on a plant you intend to smoke.

Insecti-cide
Infanti-cide
Homi-cide
Sui-cide.

Dig?

I wouldn't like to spray my plants with insecticide. You can use soapy water or i think you can make sprays out of garlic and tabaco. There sould me some recipies on the forum somewhere.

don't call me a fool cos i'm not. also insecticides are made for plants, they are not poison and are very effective if used in the right doses. I use insecticide on my outdoor grows for veg and all I get in the end is clean nice tasting buds . one thing I will say is not to use it during flowering

Well... insecticides ARE poisons. Whether they are man made chemicals or from nature. Poison is poison. You just need to decide on what kind of poison you want inside of you and what kind you don't. Insectices are made to kill bugs. Simple as that. A soapy water spray will do the trick in some cases. In other cases more drastic measures may be needed. If you find that your infestions is from ground dwelling bugs, then a nice spray of beneficial nematodes will do the trick. Getting bugs on your leaves or plants? Then maybe purchasing and releasing ladybugs and praying mantises will help. Birds attacking your crop? Adopt a couple of cats from an animal shelter

There are so many organic ways to kill off pests these days. Yes, they can be a bit more of a pain to apply than something that we can spray out of a can, but in the end, this is what you're putting into your body.

I say that as I just sat down and ate almost an entire box of Keebler Chocolate Wafers.

Good luck, though. Organic farming, regardless of what you're growing, can be so very rewarding. And so damn frustrating at the same time.
