Castille soap or Diatomaceous earth to kill aphids and a potential gnat issue. I do not want to burn or harm the leaves at all so im looking for the safest method to resolve the issue. I set sticky traps but need a secondary way to kill them off. Bought bags of soil and manure from the big chain stores and brought bugs into the equation.

Copy. Still in veg. Ty for the info. Its legit the smallest amount i could sprikle for a top dress. I mixed it up with a bit of plain soil and sprinkled on top soil. Then i added maybe 1/3 of a cup to some tea which was 5gallons of water so i dont think itll burn her. Im gonna grab some mushroom compost bc another experienced grower said its not hott compost at all. They sell a small bag so im gonna give it a go.
The pepper method will be attempted, ill make sure to rinse her off with a good shower afterwards. Great suggestion here. I appreciate it.
Oh yea and just about everything im doing is diluted and in smaller amounts than suggested. Legit I add maybe a quarter of the suggested ingredient maybe less. Ive been careful as far as that goes.
