Wulf Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Whats up guys! Can anyone spot this mother f%*&$#!? I'm not one for bad language but I went out this afternoon to check up on MJ and found that she had small holes on some of the leaves,these holes were not there yesterday. I spent time looking to see if I could find anything on the plant, but couldn't see anything. I decided I wil re check tomorrow and as I done one final rotation of the pot I spotted this... What do you guys recommend at this stage of the plants life cycle, in as far as pest control is concerned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pants Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Eina. Good catch. I would inspect everyday, thoroughly. And check under leaves for eggs. But that’s would just be damage control. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bos Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Grasshopper types are difficult cause you dont really want to spray any insecticide on a plant you will be consuming later. Not sure if neem or pyrol might work as a deterrant. Other than building a nethouse or tunnel to keep them out, otherwise daily inspection does work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsyCLown Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Very well camouflaged, I guess this is the whole purpose though. lol Not sure if pyrol would work for that pest, perhaps a mixture of pyrol and neem. Otherwise you could try beauveria bassiana - but keep in mind the effect it may have on other bugs nearby. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
