well the reason he didnt see any signs
was cuz a human did it by meaning me hahah:D
man there are a ton of bugs that eat leafs and
stuff here on the forum ppl say crushing up asprin
and then putting them in a gallon of water and put
in a spray bottle will warn of the bugs i have yet
to try this....
peace

yeah some of the bugs that love to munch on your plants can only be seen with a manifying glass and a lot of bugs hangout on the underside of the leaves. I heard the asprin trick too but never done it myself.

could be something that has moved on.. grasshopper... slugs... caterpillers... not everything will stick around... if you neem oil them.. it should keep them away.... or you could go the hydroponic store and get some insecticide... be very very careful tho... the green earth stuff that says organic at walmart will burn your plants to hell.... basically.. always do a test patch...
You could also use the aprin water, or iso,water,dishsoap spray... but id recommend buying neem to start..

well the asprin trick is just good for a quick, cheap, little time consuming method. It works fine though.

i have been using neem for a while now should i make it stronger because i have the concentrate you mix with water right now i mix about 1 tsp to about 14 oz h2o,do you think it would hurt the plants to up the neem a little?
