Pest Infestation?

New2daGrow · Aug 5, 2015

Hi all, i'm new to the grow and am about 40 days in to the veg state and just had some spots show up on the leafs and what seems to be a trail of pollen? its only on 1 leaf. Here are some pics.

Looks like aphids. They suck the juice out of the leaves. They are somewhat harmless, but I don't like them getting all there poo all over my plants.

Using a garden duster; I dust lightly, the underside of the leaves with Food Grade Codex diatomaceous Earth.

I hope that works for you. I hate neem oil. Makes the pot taste like "poo", LOL

your gonna wanna use the neem religously for it to work. It's not a one time spray and have no bugs you have to spray once a week or every 2 weeks to keep them at bay. Stop spraying them once you start seeing pre flowers

18000 ladybugs delivered for 82 dollars is my method during flower. never liked putting an oil on my buds. I am now seeing ladybug larva. they eat 3 times as many bugs as the moms. outdoors ,your going to have bugs. Just need the good ones.
