I’ve tried everything. neem oil, hosing them off, lady bugs, yellow sticks pads, diatomaceous earth, green lacewings, (didnt get a chance to try spinosodal soap during veg though) and I used compressed air today because one plant was VERY bad. the other 4 were decent.
I have been fighting this since veg and while its not under full control, I feel like its slowed it down enough to finish my grow.
this works the best. a sticky tape on a screwdriver. its not overly time consuming but usually only 1 or 2 branches on the entire plant looks like this: and only 1 plant is infected. the others seem fine. 5 mins of my time sure kicks the aphid populations ass.
I just keep sticking em every 3-4 days when im in the tent and it seems to slow them down enough so im winning overall.
ive only got 6 plants in a 4x4 though. you commercial or giant SCROG guys are in a diff situation.
