What are these?

[Eyes of Sage]

Hi. Joined not to long ago. I need assistance identifying and eradicating some pest. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I forgot to mention that this a rooftop grow. It's Jamaican bag seed so I don't know the strain. Seems like an indica.

They look like aphids to me.

 

[Eyes of Sage]

Thanks for your input. I'm going to search on ways to get rid of them.

 

[ManInDirt]

yea they are aphids.

 

[Eyes of Sage]

Thanks guys, I'm going to use garlic and see if it works. Does my plant look to bushy to you?

 

[Eyes of Sage]

Here it is.

 

[Perramas]

I do not thinks it is too bushy. Looks like a fine sativa to me.

Edit- If it will stay outdoors its whole life cycle I do not think you can get too bushy.

Thanks for your help. I'm thinking of starting a journal. This site and it's members are amazing.

turn the plants on their sides and use a strong spray of water on the underside of your leaves, that will reduce their numbers. You're probably going to have to use some sort of additive to eliminate them though.

 

[Eyes of Sage]

Right. What kind of additives do you have in mind?

I use neem oil extract a natural insecticide, when I have garden pests. Its not a powerful insecticide that will kill the eggs so you will need to apply it every couple days for a week or two.

Nice looking Sativa you've got there my friend. Welcome.

 

[Eyes of Sage]

Thanks gtrmike470. This site is very informative. I've learn a lot from here.

Another question for anyone that can help. The area I'm is very hard to get supplies for my grow. The be honest this country is for the birds sometimes. Anyway back to the topic. Can I use this as a substitute for Epsom salt?
