Below as you can see that I believe that I'm mostly have aphids problems or at least I think so. I think that what they are with little water like bubbles coming for one of them I saw this morning.


Top picture, there is some discoloration to most of the top leaves. This is where I see most of these critters.


Notice the area circled in red!

Besides the yellowing of leaves, some leaves are curling under as well. There may be a few spider mites but I don't really think that is so. As far as trying to keep things under control I been using the following Pesticide(only 9% Neem oil) on a 7 Day Schedule. Since it's been outside.

I'm all hears guys. Oh yes she only in the 5th week of veg growth.

1floz of pine sol mixed with a gallon of water and spray the plant once every other day for a week or so. This works for most pests

That spot may have been caused by some sucking insect, usually on the underside of the leaf. I don't see any other evidence of insects. Turn the leaves over and inspect the bottom, any bumps are larva. Concentrate your spraying on the undersides of the leaves.
