it COULD be some small slugs. Not that likely but nevertheless, check around your place.

Look at every single stem top to bottom ..I bet u one of those stems is not a stem its a green bug. Rub your hand up each one. Sometimes their defense is to freeze not jump or crawl when u frighten them and as a human our eyes are attracted to movement as our defense mech. So if they dont move we dont notice them.
I hate to keep adding things as im only offering options .. .no fly pest strips in veg are supposed to kill all not just flying things.. and i would have taken them to shower and hosed em off already. What have you got to lose.

tops and bottoms of leaves. for inspecting and spraying.

In general, many insecticides are photodegradable , so it is better to spray at night. It seems to be when a lot of the feeding occurs, but it is more because it gives the chemicals time to work before being broken down by light.

sounds about right

Stem top and bottom. Not sure what you mean. at this point they are getting harder to find with all the treatments.
appreciate options

Hose off 60 plants? Up the stairs. Impossible.

Is drip clean vapepoo? I use it. Not sure what you mean by that either.

Top to bottom as in every single inch of the plant. And if youve never seen the movie my signature wont make sense to you

 

[paper thorn]

^^He means---inspect, using that maginifier you have, every stem from the top of the plant to the bottom of the plant. also the tops and bottoms of all the leaves.

Crazy for you to not have found the perps yet.

I had a tiny grasshopper that looked exactly like a tiny new branch coming from between the juncture of the main stem and leaf stem. Further, I seem to have had only a single tiny grasshopper but what is interesting is that it will live on a plant it doesn't eat an eats the plants it doesn't live on. Further, it always returned to it's same site or perch. I found it with a jeweler's loop after looking at it for a week and congratulating myself on new supplementary growth sites at such an early age. I got with a pair of tweezers and the problem stopped right then and there. A single insect consumes a tremendous amount of plant matter, often on a single "skin" on the underside of the leaf so that the damage doesn't immediately appear until oxidation of the exposed plant tissue browns. Just my 2 cents.

Theyre still here but I Think I may have seen them.

Theyre still here but I Think I may have seen them.

Days and days and days of searchin.
Nose the ground (coir) for hours wit a a 100x loop
Too close.
More with a 60x
Nothin
Back to the 100x on a leaf I could actually see being consumed (after hours of watching) and after hours of looking I think I may have seen them. But it passed quickly and I cant go back again. I may have imagined it. These guys were small (if I did not imagine them). It would have bee far easier to view them with a microscope. I hit them with pyrethium- nothing. They ignored it. I hit them with Azamax and have to check this a.m.

It might have all been imagined. Spend an hour viewing the world in the 100x and try to hold on to your sanity.

Later.

First day there is more new growth than destruction

First day there is more new growth than destruction

Labor Day.
Theyre not as strong as they were.
First nite I can sleep.
Not gone and certainly not soon forgotten.
First nite w/o Azamax
Azamax did some serious leaf and (ultimately) plant damage.
Ten babies Dead.
4 in late Vege.
And Im a complete wreck.

 

[brandonwalsh420]

get the marijuana garden savers book... lots of good pictures might help eliminate some of the possibility's, a good book to have on hand when trying to figure out pests and deficiency's and toxicity's

 

[NoSocSlic]

I'm sorry to hear about your situation. While there are still plants there are still hopes though.

 

[dabking]

What was the new growth looking like? Are you doing any root drenches? Try cutting on a newer node and then looking with your 100x see if you find any critters in the plant. It is possible to have some pests move through the tissue.

 

[billgee]

Its Over

Its Over

Or seems to be...
Can see no new bad growth.
Cut back on the Azamax to every other day and not drenching bud and leaves. No more damage.
Green and growing.
The world returns to some kind of normalcy

 

[NoSocSlic]

I'm glad to hear that billgee! I hope the rest of your grow goes smooth.
