Is there a certain nutrient that I can add to a plant to keep it safe from bug attacks? I know there are certain things you can do to prevent diseas and mildew. Certain nutrients that off you make sure are topped off then your plant will fight off the crud.(sickness, mildew) but is there a nutrient to add to fight off the bugs as well? I heard just dust your plants with this certain kind of pesticide powder, but I REALLY REALLY don't like to do that.. Won't the dust stick to your wet trichomes and kinda smother and hinder your plants breathe intake significantly. I think the stuff is called borax.. Not 4 sure.. Bitrate? I don't know.. But I got a huge heavy duty garden sprayer and bought some stuff so potent that you mix a cap full to a huge full 5 gallon bucket.. And the bottle comes with huge kitchen rubber gloves. Sais if it touches your skin to jump in shower immediately.. On your clothes then you toss them in garbage.. Its a Brown liquid.. DARK Brown,, but when it hits the stirring spinning water.. Says to get a whirlpool going before adding .. It turns snow white instantly.. Its a cool Change used it once already to get rid of some sort of bugs I had.. But I got it all diluted and the mixture was ready (really stank) I had to mask up just to breathe otherwise it was like pepper spray.. Had me gagging I was coughing so hard. But I took it outside sprayed the plant once. Left it outside for 48 hours.. Stunted the hell out of my plant cause she didn't like the lighting.. And the cycle. Plus the heat and humidity of fla.. But it deffinately killed whatever kind of bug was menacing her. I'm sure that had a good part to play in stunting her growth. Harmful pesticides are never the answer.. But Damn.. That neem oil they say is so magical.. Well it's magically about 100$ for a half gallon.. And no dilluting it.. So it takes about 50$ on just 1 SMALL plant.. I can't afford that.. Any ideas? Any remedies? Any Thing lol..
