I have been using triazide granules which is a posion,think I got the spelling right,30 to50 days without using before harvesting.Sometimes though might be a touch left.I was looking for something with no posion though.One thing I thought of trying is the in groung termite treatment they use on houses.You can by it atsome of the ace hardwares in the country.What it is you put white pine strips in the ground.You check the pine strips every so often.When they get termites on them,you replace them with the treated strip.The tirmites eat this and take it back to queen killing the nest.The kit cost around 125.00...If you have your plants spread out in different locations,then it might be diffcult with this system.Mine are spread out over a couple of miles ,so I been using posion.GRANULER SEEMS to be the easiest to use and I donnot have to keep putting it on as much. What I have been doing is putting around the outside of my plants like a burier.This seems to really help.rebelhaten25 said:i been haveing a termites in my plants in the past 5 years how do yall keep them out

clean up your room, find any old decay woods around.. get some remodels to change, inside and out, spray with termite poisons use kliz based white paint, that kills them more too.. try your best to keep it clean for 2 to 3 weeks before you can grow it in same room or move to other place or site to grow and watch out for spider mites
