ya, id have to know what pests specifically... ladybugs are awesome for the majority... spider mites and white flys for sure. i had some white flys laying eggs on the underside of the leaves on my last crop. ladybugs pwned em in three days!!!

IMO NEEM seed extract foliar feeding every three days until it clears up, unless youre more that 3 weeks into flowering.
AND LADYBUGS!!!

NEEM AND LADYBUGS FTW!!!

and sorry for caps and gamer-speak, im pretty sleepy right now. let me know if i made sense...

Wink Pest offenders..

I like to mix my own...heehee. I find white vinegar, undiluted, mixed in with some cayenne pepper, in a nice spray bottle works pretty effin well.

its them dang critters outside

we even got foxes and coyotes runnin around in this area, but i've only seen a fox

thanks for that simple recipe fineaz

they growin outside with the sun, but i brought them inside cause it rained hard and theys little

yeah i shoulda germinated and planted a while ago, but whatever at least this is a learning experience, and hopefully i can maybe make some hash oil or something

i'm growin them next door cause no one lives there, and theres some good spots in the alley where the sun gets through all day

my whole blocks alley is like a bamboo forest except towards the end where i am

hey so i heard something from my psychology prof whos grandmother is cherokee: she said the right time to plant a garden in spring is when the oak trees leaves are as big as a squirrels ear

that wont work where some live though

GrandMothers know best.

During the Wild Garlic Season works for some too...........

OK.....Outside Pests eh??
Here's the trick............... .

Human Hair (scatter it around the perimeter)
Dog Hair (use near plants, even on 'em)
Wood Ashes (around perimeter of plants....not too close)
Moth Balls (thrown in every which direction)

yep and if you pee around your plants that'll keep the larger varmints away.

I heard on Overgrow one time that if you mix 1 part urine/10 part water for a gallon, that it provides a good source of Nitrogen.

Is this true? And if so, is it safe? I did use it on my first grow during veg. stage when the leaves were yellowing, and it did seem to work.

OH< ITS OUTDOOR VARMENTS... usually i hear pest and i think bugs, mold, etc...

just go to your local hunting/gun store and tell em you got coyotes messing with you livestock, theyll give you panther piss... or you could order some on the internet. it DEFINATELY works the best for keeping ANY animal away that could possibly eat your plants

I WOULD NOT USE HUMAN URINE!!!! this can attract certain animals in their ovulation period "in heat". theyll smell your hormones and possibly rape your plants. im not even joking. my father told me first hand of three does rolling around in his garden the very night after he tried using his own urine to do that.

would you drink your urine? im not trying to sound rude, but thats is biological WASTE. there is a reason we expell it from our bodies.

if you want a good source of nitrogen, theres a million ways to do it cheap, and none of them involve you eventually smoking your own piss.

Hahaha, yea you're right. I'm just saying though, I heard it while reading on OG, and it was my first grow.
