Bugs close to harvest, what should I do?

A really good experienced grower on this forum, well there are many, but it was @Hellraiser who told me about putting ur outside grows into a preventative pest control regimen in which u spray ur plants once a week and alternate the product u use. Like u could use Neem oil then Capt Jacks Spinosad, then Azamax (just one of these per week) and repeat the cycle. There is another organic insecticide kinda new on the market called Dr. Zymes. Im hearing good feedback about it.
Anyway, next grow you can start ur weekly sprays in veg and stay ahead of the game.

Good luck. Hope you get rid of them. I learned about the lady bugs on my first grow ever. Talked to a bunch of growers and my girl has her medical card here in Florida and I’m about to get mine and I’ve even seen where one of the dispensaries here use a predator mite, but not lady bugs. I’ve heard everyone swear by them and say they’ll eat anything that gets into your plants. Even spider mites. Then you just gotta clean off your buds. Everyone has been swearing by DE too. That’s what I’m about to try and some lady bugs in my garage. I cant wait to smoke my own bud again. Best high ever. Lol.

@Tenga appreciate the kind words. I like to mess with old Volkswagens, I learned most guys who have the old beetles or buses are generally there own breed and would help out one another. Glad to have found this site as it seems to be the same thing with most smokers and growers. And I think most of the vw guys are smokers lol My old 69 beetle, I couldn’t get the heat working, found a bag of ole weed hid in the heater line in dash lol Was able to find all of those things on amazon. So goin to check on the girls tommo, see if my peroxide did anything and then make a plan moving foward. Good tip on draggin across yard. I was nervous about ordering seeds online. So went with these freebies from
Bag smoke from a friend. Hoping to gain some knowledge and then go at it again with good genetics. Got my eye on the white widow and the purple haze.

@Tenga I like this. Good advice from @Hellraiser. I like the idea of alternating so you def gonna wipe out the bugs before they are a issue like maintenancing your car before it breaks down. Simple thought but profound. I’m a young Jedi apprentice hoping to become

@shaggy you fortunate to have the medical. I wish they’d it here. Have some family in Fl, he was telling me at first you couldn’t smoke it the medicine then you could. Wat he talked was some Nice medicine. I want to vaca to a state we’re it’s legally legal for recreation to walk into a weed “joint” no pun intended lol :joy: and literally just buy some and smoke it or eat it. I don’t know how i would react to walk into a store, no Hiding, legit across the counter smoke edibles etc!!!That answered my next question and the lady bugs poop. I’ll clean a lil lady bug poo any day to be bug free. I wouldn’t mind to use then turn loose just to eat in the general area as well. Be a good population to get started

@Tenga I didn’t know that. Crazy man some states u can and some u can’t. I tell ya one of best joints I’ve had. Me and a few buddies made the cross joint from pinnaple express, man it was great. 3 cherries at once, I am talkin weed, let’s keep g rated :joy: So we get them cherry red, and I mean it’s toking down.
At the time, this was years ago, i was attempting to do college, I had rented a small trailer. Literally about the size of a small rv, one of the older ones that if your lady used a hair dryer The Whole house was heated or if you farted in the master room, someone threw up in the living room. We were fried, and still smoking. Then “knock, knock, knock” at the door. Pulled the towel bag and thru the diamond windo of the trailer door i seen my dad and step mom. Now years later I learned he was a smoker too but he hid it from me and my siblings. I heard O shit! And the towel fell back over the window. One buddy was Dating and now married my first cousin, who my dad helped raise and the other boy, his dad was a local dentist, and our dads were friends. We put out the cross joint , and sprayed air freshener and opened the door. When we did smoke poured out. My dad grinned and said to my step mom, hey didnt we need something from Kroger? And walked back out lol :joy:

Good memories. I tell you another old good one. Met one of my good smoking buddies at a job I had. My aunt, love her heart, wonderful human being, but she always was lil nosy and didn’t believe in personal space and was anti smoke. She worked the office. My buddy says meet me in park lot. We get in his old work truck and fire it up. O it was wonderful after working all day. We had the truck doors open as it was super hot. With doors open u couldn’t see side mirrors. I took a big hit, I mean I was toking it. Passed it to my buddy. I’m holding it in. At that age thought you had to. Hear gravels crushing he turned seen my aunt, throws it to the floor board of truck and covers it with his foot. I’m thinkin yes crisis adverted. Remeber I said she didn’t know wat personal space was so she is literally right in my face, prob 6” from my cheek. Man I’m
Holding, holding, holding, can’t hold anymore, exhale, booom right into her face, was a hit, a high and a lecture I’ll never forget. Lol
