bugs!

Hi i have 3 marijuana plants with caterpillars, white flies and who else knows what kind of pests. they have been flowering for around 3 weeks. should i spraay the plants and get rid of these bastards?

Hey,
yeah there are sprays out there.
Make for damn sure tho they are safe for herbs and veggies, needs to be food grade, you don't wanna smoke toxic shit.
Use sand 1 inch thick over the top of the soil, it will spare your roots from anymore damage, specially if you have fungus gnats.
I use it normally, it's good for your soil when it soaks in later on as well. Make sure it;s not limestone sand.
If you don't know flush than sand really well before using, and do NOT use colored sand.

Hey and welcome to RIU, and sorry about your pest issue.

Are you indoors or outdoors?

i have pest problems also but my plants are just starting out, that potting soil must have came with them, i have the black jumping things and small white worms any help?

i'm indoors btw, with jungle growth soil, on seed was still germinating when i noticed it covered in the white worms and whatever else but the other is about 3" tall and seems to be doing ok i guess

You guys can use google to ID bugs, just search for whatever you might think it is and use their image search.

Works great, then you can find the solution to your problem.
I've only had to deal with fungus gnats and flies, I dont wanna have to use any chemicals ever and so far havent, just sand.

Reseach "Nematodes" they can also target problem pests.

i am growing outdoors, and i have safer insect killing soap. would that be ok to spray the plants this late into flowering?
