I did pick up some 1600 X-clude
Timed Released Pyrethrum. Anyone use that before?

I heard it will turn any part of the plant I spray like a rust color, but wont harm the plant...

Any bug experts that can identify this bug?

I'm no expert so to speak, but I would say you have both spider mites and fungus gnats.

I've never used it...but, I wouldn't suggest spraying it on any clone.

The hydro shop guy said you can use it on all stages of the plants life...so i did it on all my plants, the 6 in the DWC and my 4 mothers outside, now when I was spraying outside, all the crickets and spiders were dying all around the spray area....

Just sprayed them down with PH'd water, so we shall see in the morning....cya

I presume they look healthy?

---referring to the Pyrethrum, not the H20.

Are there more of them , or was that the only one? It doesn't look like a pest. They come in swarms, all hatching at once. If it were white fly's your plant would be showing major signs if damage. due to the larva in the soil, eating the roots. Looks to me like it's nothing your guardian cant handle.

Sorry. Didn't see the 2nd page. That sucks dude.

those are white flies pesky lil things

So, here is the update... Sad, really really sad.




My most Favorite Plant, the Diablo.


Pretty Good recovery...











Well, there they are, damn pathetic, here is the stuff i used, just used way too much of it, but live and learn...

i burned with this stuff too man,. just got it a few days ago.. unfrountately the hydro shop guy just advised me to spray for about 15 seconds even after i told him i had a small grow cabinet., leaves got really burned and the plants will push on but i just figuired ok i have to do this every 3 days.. its gonna wreck my plants..i may refund this for azamax even though they say azamax takes a while to kill fungas knats and its better for mites..Im gonna give it another shot with the 1600 pyrethrum today... about half the amount of spray this time.. and im gonna check my couple plants closely to see if theres any new damage..oh and also 3 days ago when i sprayed i did direct spray the plant a tiny bit even though hydro guy told me not to but... my light reflector is only 10 inches or so from the tops of the plants.. either way the plants get covered pretty good so i figure maybe just a quick 5 second spray and no direct onto the plant but.. i figure its still gonna burn pretty bad, and im very skeptical to use this again but then agian drastic times drastic measures... and sometimes if u dont bomb the plants theyll just get eaten by maggots anyways

look like aphids to me mate, i wouldnt have worried about 1 or 2 of them..
