In week 7 of Flower, and have found a small amount of mildew and aphids. Cut everything out with any signs of either on it. The spray I have is Bee Safe 3 in 1 Organocide. Was wondering if it is better to spray, or ride it out since its about a week and a half or so from harvest? Any and all advice, or information is greatly appreciated! Happy Growing to all!

Just mentioned something on aphids a min ago. As far as mildew there is a couple alternatives are you outside? Inside? Tent?
I have aphids right now and mildew if I cannot get rid of them I will shut it down for few weeks and pop new seeds to start over fresh without bugs around or mildew from being outside all summer while in veg. Bud worms too every year i harvest no matter what they jump ship when the plants dry to much for them to eat anymore.

In a Greenhouse. Just been worried about anything sprayed possibly coming through in taste. Thank you for the info!

Make sure you are sealed up and then a dehumidifier or two might help depending on the size of your greenhouse. I remember someone mentioning a silca remedy for this but not sure if it worked or how they went about it. Let me take another bong rip and think on that

Good luck with the aphids!

My best treatment for any bugs has always been a short hiatus.

ive been using 1 part hydrogen peroxide to 4 parts water in a spray bottle to treat mildew, has been doing a pretty decent job.

That works for you? Is that the advice, let the aphids go and see if they overtake the plant?
No by hiatus I mean a short period between plants being alive shut down the grow clean start over in two weeks.

Ya, I am like Wile E. Coyote over on the dirt empire. Its madness.
I bet you have aphids due to your ornamental garden plants like roses.
I am pretty sure I have root aphids and my only option is hiatus to break the life cycle.

In your indoor grow or outdoor?
Three clones I was vegging and taking clones from. Not a big deal I will kill them and break the life cycle. I like growing from seed anyways because i can break the life cycle of pests by taking a two week break and not cloning. Popping new seeds is always more fun when the bugs are gone.
