strange spider

I killed one of these the other day. Neem doesn't work for jack. But at least not a might. I see no webs.

Why kill the spiders? They will help control bad bug populations. I really am not a fan of them either, but may as well let them eat the bad bugs

Because of spider webs?? Maybe that's why my plants have no pest ?

neem doesn't kill directly. It disrupts the pest digestive system until it starves and slows down breeding on foliage eating insects. The spider doesn't eat foliage.

Now I feel as if I should have left it alone. Damn. Well, been awhile since I sprayed neem. Still have time left before buds appear. Don't want foliage eating critters. The joy of the wild outdoors

Spiders are your friend.

Ya. It was chillin come to think of it. But I don't want webs all over either. I found a nasty sack in one of the nodes a few weeks back.

Did you think about caterpillar prevention yet ?

No not yet. Guess I better search the stickies

I have a couple of similar spiders on my plants along with lady bugs. I have no issues with bugs that eat plant matter, only carnivorous plant defenders :thumbsup:

lol caterpillars are a bitch. went to the shops and when i got back one of my plants had been demolished. i cried all night.

all I can think about now is how I ruined the spiders life and all the pest rejoicing . SMH except this kinda secretion wasn't welcome by me. Had I left it , my bud might have had a spider senses effect?

white or black spiders are not your friend.
