One plant was showing sign's of nutrient deficiency. I poked around the soil and found one black bug almost like a mini 4 legged caterpillar maybe about 1/16th inch long and can jump around an inch then digs itself into the soil. The other bug I believe to be Gnat Larvae crawls around and there are lots of them about 1/32 inch long. I let the top two inches dry out for 2 days then had to water. I have tried dish soap in the water, and it brought a ton of them to the surface, but they lived.
I have a customer that is very picky about pesticides, and anything non organic.
He usually buys at least half my crop at top dollar when it is finished and is my best customer. For the past 4 years has literally paid my rent with his once a year purchase.
I want to provide top quality Organic weed to my customer.
I know people laugh when they find out I only grow Organic weed, but If it were legal I would pass for Certified Organic guaranteed. I usually have no bug problems due to the fact I strictly grow the stuff I sell in the winter, but it caught up to me.
I am tempted to open the bottle of permethrin and use it, but then he might as well buy it from the corner Meth, Crack, coke, and weed dealer. Because my only edge to keep him as a customer is honesty. He is the only one I Sell direct to customer, and he stops by on the occasion to check out the plants and even sometimes gets his hands dirty helping me do LST training, transplanting ect. He is a 2 time cancer survivor, and he has some damn good reasons to live his life organic.
How can I get rid of them in an organic fashion?
Look at the very top of the knife for the little white ones.
Sorry for the lack of pics, I couldn't photograph them due to camera not able to focus well enough.
