Well folks I’ve decided to shut down for two weeks due to root aphids and not being able to control them. They caused havoc and were pretty much killing my ladies. I really felt bummed out and like a total failure.
I’m looking for tips and help in creating a cleaning system and a good IMP when I introduce some new ladies in the grow room. Here’s what Im going to do so far... please contribute any input
STERILIZATION AND SANITATION
-throw away everything that can be replaced... pots, old nutrients, fans, dehumidifier, sticks, ect
-peroxide and white vinegar an empty room and put anything I plan to keep (after cleaning them w peroxide and white vinegar) reservoir, pumps, co2, etc
-GROW ROOM —> bomb w a Pyrethrin fogger. Next day wipe down walls, hoods, inside hoods with peroxide and white vinegar. Bleach floor. Be careful w bleach and vinegar... not a good combo
-let room dry out and then turn on lights full blast w CO2 for 24 hours. Turn off all fans and exhaust fans. Heat blast!!!
-Following day... repeat cleaning process w peroxide and white vingar.
Now once I introduce my new ladies I need a good IMP or at least 3 modes of action
IMP
- using ogbiowar root Foliar Pack every 7-10 days
-introduce from the beginning nematodes

So that’s what I got so far. My room will be empty for two weeks starting today. Please contribute anything and everything!! I’m so down and discouraged. This has been hell for the past year. Please be safe and always clean. Root aphids are the worst
