thanks bro, really looking forward to go to the end with them, so many probs with damn pests and into flowering as you've probably noticed on most of the leaves. i expect 3 more weeks of suffering lol and i will stop using any insecticides at the end of this week, their last treatment will be on sunday as scheduled lol.

If you're having bug problems, the molasses could be attracting more! Be careful with that stuff~ It is good but can bring pests

no bugs yet man
Last round I had spider mites. I have a good method to knocking down the population then treating them. This is different than outdoor pests because there are not going to be any natural predators to keep them in check if they start to infest..

here I go with a rant lol.. I hate bugs..
take plants outdoors from the tent. Clean the tent inside and out, clean house
Remove leaf mass ( to make less hiding spots)
Knock eggs off leaves with cool water out of a pump sprayer (like blast off all the leaves with it
hit with leaf blower (gently lol)

Any pesticides, it is good to use a surfacant or wetting agent like soap(not detergent) or silica in conjunction with what is being used. It makes the water stick and allows the pesticide to emulsify better and be more effective. I rotate between a few different types of applications

Neem oil (just upgraded to azamax a pure extract that is more effective, works on alot of different bugs)
Captain jacks dead bug brew (spinosad mixture general pesticide)
Pyrethrium (aphids)
BT (caterpillars)
sticky traps
Green Cure (Powdery Mildew preventative)
diatomaceous earth (slices up bugs)
sluggo plus (spinosad laced noodle for earwigs and other stuff like that)

repeat applications depending on the life cycle of targeted pest. Always go by the directions!
let application sit at least a day or two, then do rinsing with cold water from the pump sprayer daily until next spraying to keep leaf populations knocked down

sometimes i dig off the top of the soil and replace it if I think there are eggs in there too, or I sprinkle DE on there

If I slack and notice bugs after early flower, I use beneficial insects
for mites I used predatory mites, and followed up two weeks after with ladybugs. It was a little expensive but very easy to do, and they did the job very well! No spraying just follow the directions for letting them into your grow room and get the right species for your climate

This time around instead of waiting till flowering to worry I am going for a 2-3 week pesticide regime and stopping after a week or so of flowering

I just wish we would have an All-In-One solution against all these common known cannabis-munchers... like predatory Fire-Ants, if someone wants to do some breeding, or genetic altering... they could live in the pot and hunt for all the baddies... or go dormant in their nest if the plants are free of pests... just a few scouts out there to call red alert ... "Ants" man :D if some Africa Army Ants come raiding, you better flee XD

Compared to here england must be one tropical hell!

hi guys n gals, hope you're all fine!
weather's been absolute shite for the last... i dunno, maybe 4 weeks. super humid, no sunshine what so ever, raining 5 times a day... guess i will end up with some fluffy ass buds after all. trichs are all cloudy now, still no sigh of amber. white hairs shooting very rarely here n there, and judging by the color of the leaves looks like there will be like two more weeks to go

Not much dislocated my hip and tore my hip flexia muscle couple weeks ago. Just recently started to feel normal again and now I hear they may shut down again due to large covid19 spikes.
