I have also heard amending your media with neem seed and crustacean meal at about 3/4 cup per cubic foot also works as a great preventative measure...for either "soil" or coco.
Yeah I got a guy recommend neem drench with crustacean meal a few other things.
I'll keep you all posted with what I try, but I am going hippie organic bio-warfare this time. (dun plenty of chemical warfare, gonna switch up my tactics)
"Life feeds on life." Tool
It I have lower yields, slower growth, ect...So be it.
Ultimately though... a dialed soil system is less work.
Went to the depot and got spectracide should I have gotten the bayer instead? Any input from experience is appreciated and does this stuff burn the plants at all?
I grow in organic soil and haven't met a hydro grower that can match my yields yet although I'm sure there are some out there. Quality is subjective, so of course I think organic is better, but I've smoked great hydro weed too, so either hydro or soil can give good results and good yields. Ultimately though... a dialed soil system is less work.[/QUOTE
I would agree with most of that...hell, even I think well done organic tastes better.
but is it really less work? One has to use way more media to make it yield the same...and then one has to amend that soil and tend the soil itself between grows and I just found out that is heavy ass work. So yea...less watering but I would think more work on the media.
Still...much respect for those that go that way...and even more respect for those that make it yield.
The Spectracide is good. The Spectracide, IMHO, actually does a better job of killing them immediately if you have a problem. However, the Bayer is systemic, so it stays around for a while so it does a better job of making sure they stay gone. Like with anything, alternate any treatments with other products--I suggest weekly treatments. The Bayer or Azamax would be good in the rotation.
I've never heard of anyone burning the plants with Spectracide when they used the dosage on the label, even when the plants were really sick.
That's what I wanted to know! So its no biggie to mix in with a regular feeding and don't have to worry about photosensitivity? I'll throw some azamax into the rotation as well next week, thanks for the fast response. May end up being just fungus gnats but some of the plants are stunted significantly ie weeks behind for no apparent reason and seem to have continual curling leaves and another set has an amazing random deficiency of mg. Tired of these little guys already!
