Hello to you all:
my thread is in regards to WHITEFLIES.....
i unfortunately have just encountered them for the first time -- and as always -- have done my research on how to remedy the situation....
i found these little bastards in both my VEG chamber and FLOWER chamber. They have totally killed a few beautiful ladies already, before i caught on. With it being summer time, i thought my issues were all heat related, so i have been adjusting and tweaking my grow room and equipment as if my dead girls were heat stress....
but NO, so, as of today, i have sprayed my plants down with a water/Neem oil mixture ( 2 tablespoons per gallon of water )......i have also ordered some Doktor Doom foggers, but will be a week until they arrive @ my doorstep....
there is TONS of info on what they are......how they fuck things up...and how to kill them and rid them from your garden. I cannot seem to find anywhere the reason and theory on WHY my garden has them. I do NOT use any soil -- I am an INDOOR gardener...and have NEVER brought anything in from the outdoors or another garden. All my tree's have been grown from seed at first, then cuttings and cloning.....and always DWC in single 5 gal buckets.
one piece of the puzzle is location of grow room is in my attic space. There are not many basements in Florida, and i have a busy household with visitors and kids, so my only safe haven was within my trussed roof. So needless to say, my grow room is triangular in shape....roughly 10 feet off the ground and fairly sealed.
SO......do i have insects kickin around the attic/wall cavity and did these specific Whiteflies find and smell my killer bud ?? or did they come from the exterior because of the sweet smelling weed ?? is it a summertime thing ? WTF.....
What came first, the chicken or the egg ????
HELP.....HELP.....HELP.......
