Right, but only problem is that the plants I'm talking about is growing outta the ground. I can't dunk it. Any suggestions I'm open. Thank you.I’ve never done it but I’ve read that safers insecticide soap is on on roots.
But there is products like Mosquito dunks that kill the bugs in your soil.
It’s harmless and inexpensive.
I’ve used it and it works.
Also SNS @Sierra Natural Science 209 will work as a root drench.
I use it every week in my feed water and have zero bugs anywhere on my girls/coco.
If you use soap I’d flush the soapy water out after
Stay safe

Mosquito dunks are a product that you use to kill off bugs. You can crumble it up and spread it over the top soil. When you water it'll water in and kill off larvae and whatever bugs are in the soil.
They're mostly used to keep mosquitos from birthing their larvae in your res tank but they are also used generally to get rid of mosquitos in standing water.
Dunks are just the name.
You can soak one in your feed water to kill everything eating your roots.

Not sure if it's been mentioned but if youre roots are having any types of issues giving root hormones will help stimulate them and trigger new root growth just don't go overboard dial it back some
Any type u can recommend? Anything organic?

If you were indoor I would mention increasing blue light spectrum to promote more root growth but you're outdoor.

I use the powder stuff from Walmart garden safe is the name it's like $6.00 it's in a little white can with a purple lid I use it to make my clones and for my seedlings I always end up with excellent root development. My theory for your case is the more roots the better but do like half of whatever it recommends since your plant is sick you can increase if and when it starts to recover

If it's still in veg then they can get a outdoor light fixture and put a blue grow bulb in it for night time it'll certainly help
In and out. But my blue cannot be increased.
Thank you brother
