Yeah , I realized that later haha. I am also finding it hard to get it from inside Canada, which no extra fees. Sorry about that! I am a bit derpy.I know you thought the price of the Trifecta was high, but that tiny bottle makes four gallons. Four gallons goes a long way in a home grow.
Sorry I missed the Insecticidal soap part. I did get one a bit ago but I was scared to use it on the cannabis its called Safers. So if you and CannaGranny think it would be fine Ill get it now. lolSo you see ants by chance? From my understanding its the ants that kinda damage the plants and that attracts the aphids to feed on the sap. Not 100% sure.
Like @CannaGranny said id leave em and get a treatment asap. Possibly insecticidal soap?
Can’t give a good informed opinion on something I have never used. My whole grow journey is about clean and safe, I’m just darn loathe to recommend anything I have not directly used, or even know about the contents.Sorry I missed the Insecticidal soap part.

Awesome, thank you Just want to be sure whatever I use is 100% safe for flowering plants. I was using neem and peppermint castile soap but I guess it's not good during flower. I will for sure check out the other options. Thanks a bunch again.check that out, some home remedies for those nasties10 Best Home Remedies On How To Get Rid Of Aphids Naturally in Your Garden

Also, I have figured out what those little black bugs are ...Minute Pirate Bug So I am currently glad to have them. I hope they can continue to control the aphids and not run out of food and start sucking on my plant lolCan’t give a good informed opinion on something I have never used.

Start out with soapy water ! Do that for about a week . You have to make sure your getting the underside of the leafs . Do another evaluation! If you still see some , you’ll have to use neem oil . Just do your best not to spray the flowers . A little bit won’t hurt . Just hold your hand over the flowers the best you can . It’s going to take some time because those are pretty good plants but it’s got to be done . The only other thing you can do is buy ladybugs and I’m pretty sure you won’t want to do that . Good luckHey all! I live in Ont Canada. This is my second ever grow and I have this massive tree, has to be close to 15 feet and a not so massive tree roughly 10-11 and then a normal sized plant 6-7 feet. I'm also only 5'2 so, maybe why it looks a little wonky in some pix I break my neck just looking up at it, haha. I have done what, myself and my little brain could come up with for support lol. I am also very cheap... Sorry lol. So, these two ladies went into pre flower around the first of August and and have now hit flower roughly, last week or so. Also they are no longer leaning lol.

A little back story. So While I was tilling the garden, prepping it to plant my other plants, I find this amazing little lady in the weeds lol. June 1st.

I am guessing it is either Purple Haze+random male or something called Tall Purple again random male no clue. I got everything as clones last year and had 26 seeds all germ this year as well but rabbits, a few males, couple hermies and sold some lol. Given her size I would assume she came up in April- may-ish, possibly . So she has been going since then.
Big Bertha, She smells like a skunks as* and berries/lavender lol and the fence is 6 feet for scale.

So on to the one in flower... Started around the 15th of July give or take a few days, has been going decent since other than Aphids being an issue since veg. So I am wondering what I can maybe do about them while in flower, 5 weeks on the 19th-ish. (the other two plants have none at all)

When it comes to who I call Big Bertha lol. What can I expect out of her, bud wise? Will they all be popcorn buds or is it possible they can gain a fair bit of weight? And how can I go about supporting her more branch wise if ya's think it's even needed or worth it at this point.
Her cola is pretty weak. At night it flops right over and points to the ground but stands up during the day. I kind of find it odd. I only learned about LST, training, topping etc after it was too late for any of them. So any help there for next year by all means I NEED it :P
So, another thing is I have given them nothing nute wise at all and I only water when I think they could use some. Otherwise its rain.
I am wondering if any of you think they need anything regarding nutes? I have had no real leaf issues with them or anything so far. And Just wanting help and input for next years grow. Sorry this is so long winded and all over the place, but thanks for reading/helping.
Yeah that is what I had resorted to just soap and back and forth with the Neem. Mind you nothing really seems to be working. I have a few bugs that enjoy eating aphids and it seems whenever I spray they leave, but doesn't seem to affect the aphids at all. So I think, I am just going to let whatever happens, happen lol I do not see myself winning this war. Thank you for the advice much appreciated.Start out with soapy water ! Do that for about a week .

Leaf Hopper. They are invasive. Neem oil and DE. Both organic and relatively inexpensive.Also, to the bug experts , what are these? And are they useful for aphids?, I did see a lot of carcasses. Lol

Ohh ok thank you I will have to check that out. Would for sure be a better method. Yeah the plants look good regardless of the aphid issue so I think they are pretty resistant this go. Quite happy with that thus far haha. I can post more photos of the bugs buds leaves etc.To avoid spraying the flowers with neem oil, it is sufficient either to water with it instead of spraying, or better still to use neem meal (solid powder) in the irrigation water. This way you can use and enjoy the benefits of neem during flowering.
However, judging only by the few photos, I think I can see quite a lot of health in the plant...
Oh girl I hate those things I realized my sun flowers were the bug carrying plants infected everything. So I bought lady bugs and hunted them it worked like a charm I want to use soap what kind do you suggestHey all! I live in Ont Canada.

I have no clue if it;s what you should do but lol I am just trying hahaha.Oh girl I hate those things I realized my sun flowers were the bug carrying plants infected everything.

How are your ladies doing?
There doing great the aphids came inside so I need them gone
I hate them I didn't realize they came with my cover which wasn't a god cover I love that you and I are at the same level it's nice to have a girl with the same passion and experienceAhh ya hopefully you can get rid of those little weird bastards they are so gross looking lol. Ohh and the mix I read was the peppermint soap then a tea tree soap same brand and neem oil. I cant remember the ratios but I am sure they are somewhere lol if others think it is safe
Fascinating thread and great to see that the gal buddy system is working for both ladies. The only thing I wanted to add was about ants....and a cheap and easy way to deal with them. Found in any pet store and super easy to apply. I use soil indoors and usually have ants in situ --Ahh ya hopefully you can get rid of those little weird bastards they are so gross looking lol.
