Pests in the hydroponic DWC system… inside… in the middle of winter? Are you serious? Where did they even come from? This episode we get serious and kill some intruders before they spread to the floodtable.

also animals (pets) can bring pests in too
that music kinda sounds like it came from unreal tournament 😀
if u have been out in the garden and brushed up agaist another plant ect then gone into the hydro basement with the same clothes on there’s a good chance they have come in on your clothes i had a lot of trouble with spider mite until i started changing clothes to go into hydro plants
Use a natural 3 and 1 with Neem oil in a misting bottle when/if this happens again. It’s totally human/fruit safe, but bad for aphids, and you meet the criteria for staying "organic."
YOUR GROWING MEDIUM , ANYTHING YOU PURCHASE FROM COMPANIES YOU DON,T KNOW , THEY ONLY INTRESTED IN YOUR MONEY FRIEND ,, MY FRIEND JUST SETUP SOME OF THOSE JIFFY STARTER PLUGS , WET THE STUFF AND LET IT SIT AND SHE HAD BUGS CRAWLING OUT OF IT AS IT GOT WET AND EXPANDED
Great video man, loved the whole "suiting up with dramatic music" part, haha xD I hate bugs a lot as well. I’m also wondering where in the world they came from! I always thought you were pretty safe with hydroponics, lol. Anyways, great job man! 😉
Totally off topic but, have you worn Habitat skate shoes or do you just rock the shirt? What did you think of them? Just curious since I like their business model but wasn’t ready to drop cash for them yet.Thanks and keep up the informative vids man, their great. Volume is a bit loud in the intro, have you tried equalizing the vols when you are doing your editing? Awesome camera angles and macro shots. Very entertaining imho. Peace from down in the Sonoran desert and thanks for those solar vids.
What if there had been a bug in your boot😱😂
You can take a shower before entering the grow room. Kill bugs with neem oil spray, not chemicals, especially for edibles or herbs.
Love your videos man. Yeah aphids suck. i just had some. Good luck with them.
G’raage lol
Has anyone else tried diatomaceous earth? It’s organic and several people have said it’s great for killing pests on plants AND around the home. A 10 lb food grade (the kind I’ve heard recommended) bag costs about $15, I just haven’t had enough pests to deal with to experiment yet.
Hey Matthew, nice work man. Here is an aphid solution for roses. In a spray bottle put a few drops of dish detergent, about 20% mouthwash and 80% water. I used Lavoris mouthwash because I like the cinnamon smell and Dawn because that is what I had laying around. Problem solved. spray all over. Peace.
