Awesome! I just ordered two different kinds. How often do you spray? I usually do neem once-twice a week

That depends on the life cycle of what you're combating. I'd go every 5 days or so. Most important is to spray the underside of the leaves, so get your pots on a table so you can hit them from underneath. Anything in the ground is tougher so get rubber gloves and lift up every leaf to spray the bottom.
Same rules apply to neem.

Hi newty - I can’t remember wahtvyoure spraying for, but Conradino recently had great success using alcohol to kill mites with no damage to his plants. The a few other folk popped up and said - oh yeah, that works! I’m pretty sure he just used something ‘on hand’. Prolly not ok if they’re in flower though.
H202 for the powdery mildew I think
SweetSue did that recently.
Hope all is well with you

Thanks guys and gals
I bought 2 different products. SAFERS 3 in 1 and SAFERS insecticidal soap concentrate. Hopefully alternating and using both will help.
As far as the mildew, I’ll use these products as well. It says that it helps for all. I cut away the infected foilage on my pumpkins and my zuchini
If I can’t control it, I will just cull the plants infected by next week.
Thanks for all the help!!

Also...professor google says that not all plants will be susceptible to the same powdery mildews. I’m washing and not cross contaminating indoor and outdoor tools just in case!
So you were going for S afer and not S pinosad then! They look to have about the same ingredients (except the sulfur) but one is a concentrate?

I couldn’t find Spinosad must be an American thing? All I could find was a book about it lol can’t kill tiny pests with a book
And yes! The insecticide soap says concentrate

GeeGee update
GeeGee Day 5 (counting from hairs)
Took off some under foilage. Usually I wait for stretch to stop but she don’t care. I also tied each branch down more to open up the middle. I have to do this at least 1-2 times a week as she pulls out.
Feed of 1/2 strength EH bloom nutes
Ppm 800
Ph 5.8
I moved the light up as she’s reaching (this will be a trend I think)
Happy Hump Day!
