Hello, I am in southern california and am growing outdoors. I have a small presence of thrips and would usually use Spinosad for thrips because it has always seemed to completely kill them off whenever I have applied it.
However, I have seen "California's approved list of cannabis pesticides" and Spinosad does not appear to be on the list. Furthermore, I have also read about people having their products tested and failing the tests for Spinosad.
Because of the reasons listed above I have tried to refrain from using Spinosad (also because it supposedly kills bees) but am getting tempted to use it again for my new grow outdoors now that the baby thrips are starting to show up more.
I have been spraying neem oil and BT once a week every week and i dont think that is affecting the thrips.
Can someone give me peace of mind with using Spinosad? Or assure me why i SHOULDN'T be using spinosad? I would apreciate it. Thanks in advance
