alltatup Yea but they will try to leave the tent and they will freak me the fucc out lmao idk why but mantises are creepy af but i know ladybugs eat a good bit of soft bodied pest leafhoppers gnats anything soft they can hunt so ill just breed them out and every 3 to 4 days ill let go 2 in the tent and let them hunt then ill just breed lady bugs for fun hopefully my daughter will enjoy them next july when shes 2 lol so its a win win lol but other than that im hopeing i can find out how they are getting in my room so i can stop them drom comeing back i think ill have to get the shop vac bacc tho what pest bugs eat on leaves tho?
Graff420 Go over to GWE and read about cannabis pests and pest sprays. Most of them are natural--not bad for us or the buds. I've got Neem oil and SM-90 at home for spraying leaves, and I already had a bout of gnats, so I also have gnatrol. Be prepared!!! And if you know there's bugs in your grow room and on your plants, take care of it now before it gets really bad. They prolly won't just go away on their own...
Yea i got the sm-90 just waiting for it to get here already got gnatrol but its not fungas gnats just normal gnats because they are everywhere here iv mad sure they cant get near the res or the bottom of the plants at all where they can get to water but their is one bug somewhere i cant find it on the gwe site but it eats little patches out the leaves like vary tiny and har to notice intill the leaf grows out more leaf hopper marks on leaves are here i guess i just cant see it at all so going by what my gf says but if they were not the ones eatting my leaves then that other thing is but i got no idea what it is and it is the perfect bug at playing hide and seek seen it once 2days ago but cant find it anywhere anymore but i think that is the bug snacking on the leaves but hopeing the sm-90 will take care of it also
These are the issues that we have to deal with when we grow cannabis!! Comes with the territory. I embrace it all and take responsibility for all the shit I have to buy and learn how to use, cuz I never want to have to buy from anyone else again...
I think lady bugs are 2 small to eat leaf hoppers or mealybugs... like alltatup said mantis would be the best bet besides the spray... i tried alchohol an soap mix an neem an azatrol an they laughed at me.. caught a brown mantis outside that i just seen one day an he killed them all... even fungus gnat larvae is gone.. i dunno if the dirt dried out good n they died or if he ate them but needless to say after a little over a week he cleared out the bugs in my tent an other room, .. he dis diasappear a few times but i think he was just a beast at hiding.. cause i SEARCHED!! He didnt try to get out or nothin he just chilled up on the rope holdin my light till he was hungry lol he freaked me out a little at first. But after a few days he would crawl i. My hand up my arm an sit on my shoulder lol no bs his leg poked me an freaked me outa few times cause i forgot he was there lol
AMAZING animals. And smart as humans!! Seriously: what smart, perceptive critters they are. We so totally underestimate the intelligence of other species. I bet he totally recognized you and knew you were the one leaving him water and letting him feast.
