Damn buddy that sucks I’m sorry ur dealing with all those bug problems an really hope u get em knocked down
Thanks bud. I’ll get there eventually. And if I don’t I have lots of seeds to hunt through in the wings!
You ever try putting some predatory bugs in the tent to eat the mites? I personally haven’t as I haven’t needed to but have heard some excellent results from it.
The same company that makes mosquito dunks also makes something called mosquito bits. Same thing as the dunks but not compressed into donuts. Check those out if you haven’t gotten them yet.
I have considered it but currently they are living in the closet so I wouldn’t want to put bugs in with all the other stuff I have in there. if I can’t get them wiped out till my tent is empty I may put them all in there and do that.
I am going shopping this afternoon I’ll look for them while I’m there can see where they may be easier to mix in. Especially in smaller batches. Thank you for the info!
Sounds like you already have bugs in there

Ello @Gadarien
I sexed my CDW this weekend and got 3/5 females! Next run, right at end of December, is a go for me.
I know it’s probably not the best time to follow up with that, lol. Hopefully you’ll be able to work out the pest issues.
Hey bud how’s it going with those bugs have I knocked em down a bit at all
I’ve got the supplies together so this evening after work I’ll carry them all outside and do what I can. I am about a week or so from an empty tent, but I think first thing I’m going to do is give the plants from seed a couple days of 12/12 and see what’s what. will go from there with my next flower run.
I used safers 3 in 1 on the clones you gave me, two or three heavy applications a couple days apart and no (spider mites) issues since!
They are coming along pretty great btw!
GC x BSHW on the left and the VBB X BBM x BSHW on the right.
As for fungus gnats, nothing I’ve tried works mosquito bits, hydrogen peroxide, neem, none of it. I just ended up buying a HUGE pack of sticky traps.
SIPS also help since the top stays dry
We’ll see where I get to with the bugs. I’m not going to give up quite yet. Do you get much smell off those plants yet?
They both smell fantastic! I grabbed a crud off of one of the buds on the blueberry plant and the small bump released a delicious aroma of (to me) sugary artificial blueberry. I think your description of the blueberry donut sticks is pretty on point! The GC one is a big as far as WHAT it smells like, but I like it!
I combed through my pics and it looked like they both started to “show sex” right around the 5th of September, so a couple of weeks left.
I don’t remember what the project with this is for and if it’ll be staying outside, but uhhhh, outside seems like a risk at this stage of working on pest removal from indoor plants. Maybe it’s quick! I do not know! Good luck with it either way!
Hoping u get the bugs all killed off an ur ladies can presume their flowering duties
It’s just so I don’t dust the family in diatomaceous earth. So only till I get the plants dusted well then back to the closet.
Provided it goes better than my whole day anyway. Likely I’ll drop and kill each plant individually while being as careful as possible. Lol.
So. You can’t lay eggs on leaves if there isn’t any leaves right?
So in case anyone wonders how aggressive I am gonna be with these bugs. Here the are after trim before the powdering.
They’re all coated now. Will wait till Thursday then water and check. May reapply after water, but will see how I feel about them.
Damn Gadarien your not screwing around with these bugs lol nice work, let em suffer.
Ha! That’ll show em!
