    I’ve been dealing with some pests that don’t want to go away. They’ve been munching on my leaves for a few weeks now. I’ve seen some little flying bugs that I assume are fungus gnats, but just want other opinions. You can see the bite marks I’ve noticed today. I’ve been using neem oil mainly, but also spinosad.

  • Got any moths around? Larvae will eat leaves like that. Snails slugs.

    • BT will take care of caterpillars if that’s the problem. It doesn’t look like caterpillar damage to me though. Idk what it is.

      • Enviroment. Temp, light, fans.

  • No, I haven’t seen moths, snails, or slugs around

  • Try Baking Soda. Google it!!!

  • The first picture the left leaf looks ate. The small pale spots and other sliced gaps in the leaves, dont believe they are pest.

  • I believe the light intensity during the use of neem oil and abundant amount of neem has created the leaves to get that way.

    • That’s totally possible about the spots. I soaked the plants down yesterday and left them just outside the door of the tent for about an hour and then put em back in.

  • Ladybugs!!! This was my first time using them and as long as you keep the happy and healthy they will do the work!
