I have a aphid infestation. I believe they are Aphid’s anyway. I’ve been using Monterey concentrate and they are still there. Here is a photo of the little assholes. Any advice would be greatly appreciated
This makes sense I totally forgot they are attracted to light. I just cut the lights out and am going into flower. Hopefully between that and the Monterey spray they go away for goodIf the aphids are drawn to light like most pests , you might want to try my sticky soloution
But if your going into flower be careful , works best for me when I'm not under a flower schede , but you can pull it off , just don't turn on main light for first half hour and use the sticky light or do it on the lights out dark side and compensate for 12/12 however you need to .....This makes sense I totally forgot they are attracted to light.

Thanks for the advice buddy. I’ll let you know how it works out.But if your going into flower be careful , works best for me when I'm not under a flower schede , but you can pull it off , just don't turn on main light for first half hour and use the sticky light or do it on the lights out dark side and compensate for 12/12 however you need to .....
Did you try dumping your infested medium , cleaning out the room and starting with a fresh medium or peat based , instead of soil ?Good luck.
I’ve tried sticky thing
Ive Tried pressure washing the plants
I’ve tried diamotaceous earth
I’ve tried spraying with super concentrated soap. What most people fail to mention is it can’t be a detergent. Dawn is no good. It did more damage to the plants than the aphids did and I seem to be the only one who knows this or repeats it anywhere???
ive tried neem oil
I’ve tried ladybugs
Nothing works. I thought this was supposed to be fun??

For me personally. I bought a little pump pressure sprayer.Your applicator also matters, it can be hard to get good coverage with a little spray bottle.
Neem works on aphids but i wouldnt spray neem on flowers, tastes awful.For me personally. I bought a little pump pressure sprayer.
I sprayed the plants underside. From bottom to top. Totally soaked them. Used 5ml of neem per gallon
by the time I was don’t plant 6, the first plant had almost dried up. So they alll got a double dose of potent neem oil. Every 2 days. I did that 3-4 times. Didn’t seem to do anything.
literally the only thing I havnt tried is spinosoad

Same place man I think they are gone they return... literally looking at hydro systems to hopefully end the bugs reign one grow of dealing with them is the enough for me.I literally rushed these plants to flower so I can do just that. Can’t wait for this nightmare grow to be done so I can start fresh. Sans bugs.
