Look who wandered into my grow room.....

This guy showed up in my growroom about 3 days ago....
someone told me they mean good luck

wat the heck is this? praying mantis or somethin! never heard of it bringing u good luck, its gonna shite all over ur plants probably! maybe its his little bush and he keeps it safe for u.

Nice I need about ten of them for pets I have a huge empty fish tank...Now that my Scorpions have died
I think I will go out to the field later and look for some. Wish me luck they are hard to find in the grass..

they are good luck.....grow on with that little guy

He actually comes out to visit it's very odd. He loves the one mango plant I got, it's his home.

Cool, I have one that lives in my garden outside. They are neat creatures. Like you said they pop out for a visit to say "hello" if you are close. Too cool.

find a nearby fan leaf and lightly mist it for him. he will drink it like a dog. my wife says it's the cutest thing. i think they are rather cool. they do need water though.

Thats awesome. He'll also eat any bad bugs on your plants. I watched a mantis once MASSACRE a big spider. Those things are BADASSS

cool thing with the mantis.

maybe hell be good luck and keep your grow safe from mites and shitty pests. :]]

lucky it wasnt a grasshopper though, or else it woulda had your plant for dinner.

Hi!

What makes you think this one is male? If more than 60 mm length, this is a FEMALE! (like your plants, i hope)

Peace, Martin

It could be a girl I don't know I just prefer to call him "him". I'm sexist like that...lol

i apologize. i thought it was sexed.

Nope, how would I do that? Are there any differences that I need to know about? Are they like female women? Is she going to just complicate things and cry all the time? Just kidding ladies....please don't hurt me

I had a couple of mantis in my terrarium, nice to watch..., until the ladies ate the guys.... (adult female mantis grow up to 75 mm, male up to 60 mm)

Peace, Martin

So what are you gonna do with it when you harvest? You should at least reward it for its service, maybe a piece of a bud or some smoke.

Those bugs are killers. They behead their victims. One of the coolest insects imo.

i guess i could put out a playgirl or a playboy it see which one he or she picks, are there gays in the insect world? I will reward it, if it's a guy I gotta keep it.
