Azatrol as a root drench during veg.
1oz/gallon.What application rate are you using for the Azatrol root drench?
I used to get these white tiny insects under my leaves when i first started growing.
That was under my parents house and are they gnats or white flies?
They had lots of eggs too, no webs like spider mites.
They didnt fly around but looked like tiny flies and would suck all the nutrients from under the leaves. Mainly effecting one strain only- white rhino. The rest seemed untouched. however the white rhino was the oldest and they would be in hundreds if i didnt spray.
Id spray with washing detergent and a little peroxide once a week which seemed to help limit the population. They would increase greatly with high heat it seems.
I heard if you have humidity control you call pop the eggs with high humidity.
Id like to know what relatively non toxic means. Relatively to what? DDT.The new, and relatively non-toxic pest control product, Tree & Shrub with Safari, eliminates whiteflies from garden or home. This pesticide is systemic, which means that it is absorbed into the plant where it remains in the sap for months. Whenever a whitefly or other sap-sucking insect feeds on the plant, it is killed by the pesticide in the sap, which is not very toxic to people or pets but is deadly to many insects. It is best applied before the problem becomes severe and can be reapplied when the effect wears off, every 3-6 months. For a severe infestation, you may need to apply the product twice at 2-month intervals to get complete control over the infestation, then switch to a maintenance application schedule of 2-4 times per year.
This needs to be stickied right here.Ok, I believe from what you've described you don't have fungus gnats (we thought we did too, and went through many packs of mosquito dunks), but what are called root aphids. When the infestation is bad enough they grow wings to migrate to other pots. Those flying aphids are what are easily mistaken for fungus gnats. I have/had this same problem, and I can tell you what is working for me. It is now about 2 weeks after treatment in veg and in flower, and the difference in my plants is night and day, I have pics if you'd like.
First of all, in veg ONLY do a 20ml per gallon medium (we use coco and perlite) flood with a product called Bayer Tree and Shrub (Imidocloprid), Note: this product is systemic, you cannot use it on ladies in flower. You can purchase this product at the Home Depot. My man also treated the ones in veg with a product called Spectracide (Triazicide), I'm not sure the ml per gallon though, will get back.
Now, in flower you have to religiously, faithfully every three days do a medium spray with per 500ml water 8 ml Azatrol with 1ml SM-90, and you have to stay on top of it, to break their life cycle and keep em at bay. You won't get rid of them completely in flower, but they can be manageble if it is worth it to you to manage. Good Luck
ever find out the spectracide dosage for veg?
and is this the same spectracide i spray outside my house to keep the bugs away? ie from home depot?
I've also tried Dipel, it's supposed to be a good treatment for FGs, but I ended up going back to Azatrol.
