Hi guys, so my bug problem is still ther, but as usual ONLY IN THE SOIL????? I check and check her all over but only ver se bugs on the soil, I think my baby looks healthy and shes spitting trichs out and growing, so what th heck is the scor. Ive tried 'umpteen' different things to get rid of the bugs, and als still not working. So this has ben going on for a couple of weeks - so what should i do??? I cannot buy any more product at all as im flat broke until 1st october so relying on 'household' stuff & neem oil, is there anything kitchen wise to help, or has she just learned to cope with it. They are NEVER on anywhere on the plant, so im at a loss? I dont actually think shes too far away from harvest looking at the pics so am i close enough to not ned to worry?? Also the pic wher the red lines are is where i was thinking of cutting her to reveg when ive harvsted - if i did would she grow enough to get clones?? Please put ya 2 cents in if your reading this, i really would appreciate it. | ||

FWIW - I probably wouldn't do anything unless my plants started looking unhappy. There are lots of good sites that talk about the various bugs that can infest a plant. Maybe one of them will have a pic of your particular insect. Sorry I can't be more help. Peace.

![]() | Thank you guys, it means alot - i do worry (prolly unesscesary) but at the end of the day 'I care about her and growing her to her best' wELL she seems so fookin healty theres NO problems on ANY area where buds are only one or two spots on the larger fan leaves (which drop off anyway) so i mean its been a few weeks now and there aint a problem with her, so i guess the bugs are 'friendly'? Just had a good look again and didnt see a single thing (it was only quick look tho) i saw a tiny bit of webbing, but again buds and their leaves are healthy, so dont think i should keep ramming 'neem oil' garlic, pepper, or anything else into her. (BUT I will give her one more 'neem oil' spray just before i cut the nutes out - 3rd october) I suppose i should get worried if damage appears on the primo areas until then (hopefully never) just gonna keep doin what ive been doin, - lots of TLC, TIME, ATTENTION. P.S ALSO GUYS------> Im virtually 'dry' myself now, could i take a sample or two from someqwhere to keep me going (if so point out where on me pics) | ||

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | As far as samples go its up to you. A low limb or buds that dont get as much light as the others tend to be what I trim off. Things like how crowded my plants are, what air circulation is like & various other important factors are also things that I like to consider when trim'n. For harvest and bug detection I think a scope is a MUST have.

![]() | Cheers mate, well again tricky as she is rotated every 4 hours or so and the lights ensure full 360 degree light top and bottom (although stronger at top) and she has 2 fans blowing thru her (1 cold - 1 not as cold to avoid leaf freeze) I think i would have to be looking at the mid section bottom 3rd of her thats the only place what doesnt get direct light. Thanks for advice when i do it i'll update on flavour - Four Ways Strain.. | ||
