[purplehays1]

So its been a really long time but i still have a vial of AVID that has been stored properly. But i cant remember what dose i am supposed to give. It is in a vile with a dropper, i think i used to give like 10 drops a gal does this sound right?

Thanks, but i am well aware of what avid is and how it works, i just am not sure how much to spray.


I think the proper dose is 2ml/gal.

10 drops = 1 Ml right?

So 20 drops a gal for full str?

The plants are being prepped for flower. Small area 5 plants. I am only going to mix a quarter of a gallon.

leaf were wet were i had to go across to get back out thier is a entry time

I will only be using avid at half strength, and will be spraying one thin layer across the top of the plants. My exhaust fan will then be off for 8 hrs. Then will be on for at least 24 hrs straight with strong negative pressure. I know its nasty stuff, i wear gloves and would NEVER let this stuff touch my skin or clothes. When i used to spray a large room with avid/floramite i used to wear a tyvek suit, if u are spraying on plants that are above waist level u need a respirator and a suit for sure.

Well hope this isn't going to any patients. Check this show out for natural pest prevention.

Avid,floramite,eagle20, go 3ml/gal MAX! I do 2.5ml

Forbid, go 1.5ml/gal MAX! I do 1ml

Of course only in veg

Giving a plant avid before it starts flowering in no way leaves any residue on your crop. Spewing bad info cuz ur some hippy organic nut isn't what this site is for. I used to sell to dispensaries that ALL tested my product to contain NO PESTICIDE RESIDUE an i used avid as a preventative in last few weeks of veg EVERY TIME.

Just some advice: you might know this, you might not, but at least it will help someone down the road, reading this thread.
If your gonna spray as a preventative(which is good)continuously, I would rotate the sytemics used. Floramite, and forbid, are what I would throw into the rotation.
Over use of Avid made allot of mites here in Ca immuned, to the Avid.
Avid still seems to help with thrips here though

VERY good advice, or u end up with mites tat laugh at u when u hit em with AVID. I use Tetrasan/Floramite as well, i hit them with that a week or 2 ago. Tetrasan is a tranlaminar ovicide and floramite kills on contact. So i use three different products all with different methods of killing. Never had a mite problem since i started this rotation.

Ya my last big grow I got some insane 2 spot buggers here in cali. They were immune to AVID and Floramite, shit literally did nothing to them. Tetrasan was my saving grace, its very difficult to come by and most MJ growers dont use it.

Actually using the AVID s a preventative against thrips, gnats, aphids ect. It is great for preventing most pests.

Yup! Using miticides with different MOA's is about the only thing you can do sometimes.
I got some cuts of cherrypie a couple years ago from a close friend, who got them from a
Friend of his. The most nuclear mofo's I've ever dealt with! if I remember correctly, (all in veg of course), I 1st sprayed with floramite. Nope! Then Kontos. Nope! It took the forbid4f to finally kill them bastards. Plus, what I read about forbid, is that the residual is very short lived. Anyways, late

ya i literally took a bucket and dunked my plants all the way to the stem in full str floramite and it did nothing. When they survive a few generations they r unkillable.

 

[patrickkawi37]

I use 40 drops per gallon, 1 week before they go to flower. Kinda heavy dosage, but if you do it twice, usually a worry free harvest

I used avid wich kills adults plus hexigon I about died I was hospitalized bronchial tubes were jacked the regular respirators won't cut it... Gear up with the right stuff for reals

I think i should clarify a couple things that i posted on this thread about forbid4f!
1. It's not systemic
2. It has a longer residual effect than floramite.
