Hey thanks, I agree with you. But I've been using Powder Cinnamon on the surface of the base and it's really improved!That's tough bro. Anything you spray onto the plant has the potential to remain on the flowers and could be nasty when ingested. But something has to be done to save your harvest. I've never had that happen before, I've had scale insects show up but they have been just one or two that can be easily picked off. With a heavy infestation it could be very difficult to remove the pests safely. I know for bees they use smoke to get them calm, could some type of smoke be used? Does smoke stick to buds? I'm not sure. But I don't think it would have the same affect as spraying with a chemical because that can leach into the membranes and hang forever.
Thanks for the info, I used the spinosad and some Cinnamon on dirt surface and now "No Activity?I wouldn't spray neem that late into flower or at all. Feeding spinosad as a drench to kill all the eggs you have in the soil has been known to work for some people and spraying the foliage with green cleaner. Make sure to keep your grow space really clean, removing any dead plant matter around the pot and on the soil. Also do you have any pictures to see the severity?
I believe that I found out what /why they were infested. I "was" going from my Vegetable garden outside ( same clothes ) after a 1/2 hour I'd go into my indoor girls.
NOT ever since!
Hell I shower and change, as well as I work my indoor 1st then the outdoor!!!
Bone head move but that's the only way I can think of. Spring time came and started the "Outside " .
Thanks again to All for the feedback!

Also, I have sprayed the entire plants with Jacks "Dead Bug" and Now I believe they are gone bc I have not seen ANY since. Fingers crossed
Thx again for your help
A few weeks ago I shook a male over a female outside then couldn't go into my greenhouse with 2 flowering females until I showered and changed. Amazing what we can carry on our cloths. Shoes/socks need to be changed as well so if you wear anything in the garden you can't march into a grow room without bringing in all kinds of crap with you. Great lesson for all of us.I believe that I found out what /why they were infested. I "was" going from my Vegetable garden outside ( same clothes ) after a 1/2 hour I'd go into my indoor girls.

Exactly brotherThat must be why the commercial growers wear those white lab suits to prevent cross-contamination
