I am growing 3 autos outdoors for the 1st. I seen bugs are eating on my plants. So what can I use to stop this? What can I use at home to mix to stop the bugs? I seen dish soap or vinegar. So what would be good to try?

any nursery in your area will have them for sure. be sure to release them in the morning or the evening, otherwise they'll fly away.

sounds like it could be slugs or snails they love to eat plants and a good bait is a little thing of beer left out for them have instead of your plants

slugs are sneaky they hide during the day. look under nearby rocks, pots and any other spot they could hide. could also be earwigs, caterpillars, birds, beetles etc... try this if your not flowering.

in a saucepan on the stove, simmer

3 cups water
a large handful of peppermint leaves and stems
6 cloves fresh garlic finely minced (no powdered garlic! it doesnt work and clogs your sprayer!)
3 tablespoons (or more) cayenne pepper flakes

simmer for 45 minutes strain through a cloth (piece of old T-shirt works good) let cool and pour into sprayer add 1 tablespoon biodegradable dish soap, top off sprayer with water put on a dust mask and ski goggles (super important) and Spray Thoroughly on both sides of leaves!
Dont saturate your soil, as this stuff is not good for your earthworms and other friendly soil creatures.

Wash hands thoroughly with soap before touching eyes mouth genitals or butthole (really really hot stuff)

it's non toxic (just spicy as hell) and washes off with water easily do not use on your buds unless you're a masochist. wash any produce before eating. and seriously, wash hands with soap before wiping your ass or holding your dick.

once a week will keep aphids slugs snails deer squirrels and whiteflies in check like a motherfucker.

Warning: may attract Hispanic, Thai, and Punjabi cuisine aficionados. do not store near salsa fixins or noodles and shrimp.
