    I have little bugs that hang out on th leaves. I have sprayed with chemicals and the leavs are turning yellow and the bugs arn't dying! They can fly but usually choose to walk around on the soil.
    Any remedies?
    Insectaside that wont hurt the plants?

    These were the last of my seeds. They were bag seed but is was good stuff. I would like to get seeds from this batch without losing my entire crop to seeds. I would like to pass these jeans on but Im not sure how? If I leave a male will my crop turn into entire seed? How can I get a FEW seeds?

    Thanks for your time!! I'll be on later tonight to see your posts, College is calling.

    7 dust always worked for me. if you want a few seeds take the male into a different part of the house or outside, shake it crack open the pods whatever u gotta do to get the pollen out and collect it on something like aluminum foil. take a fine tip paint brush go into the grow area with no fans on and apply the pollen to the bottom part of the females. or top whichever you prefer. leave the fans off for a few hours and u should have just that part of the plant with seeds. but keep in mind the entire plant has to work extra hard to make that pollen into seeds, and will effect the rest of the bud!

    you can order bugs that will eat the bugs u have and then die off when they r gone.

    and why not just clone the plants you have?

    Thanks for the replys guys, Im goinna clone but I would also like a few seeds from this grow cuz its killer weed!! Tons of THC idk what strain they are but the seeds are just a back up.


    Also it has to work harder even just to make a few? That sucks. How much THC loss from seed prodution?

    you know mexican brick weed? all the seeds in that stuff? The weed would have been so much better if the growers took the time to pull the males once they were spotted. If you seed the plant uses most of its energy to make the seed, just like if you don't seed it uses all of its energy to make buds. I dunno about loss of thc as each strain is different, but the smoke will definitely not be nearly as potent when making the seeds. might as well just seed an entire plant and smoke the rest.

    Your first job is to identify the insects that have invaded your garden. There are a lot of flying pests associated with indoor gardening, especially when using dirt. Once you have the pest identified, you can figure out how to kill it.

    Regardless of what kind of a flying insect you're dealing with though, one of these: Hot Shot, No Pest Strip, Dichlorvos Active Kills Both Flying & Crawlin is all you need most times to get rid of them. They work fantastic, cause no problems with your plants, and are SUPER cheap. $6-$7 for 4 months of protection in your garden. I've used them on thrips and some other pesky bugs, and there isn't a cheaper "insurance" you could have for your crop.

    I agree .... Pyrethrin insecticides or find a place to buy some lady bugs.
