Awful late to have these issues.... I feel for you. Been there myself.

Even worse than i thought. I have a total take over. Even in my drying buds.

Chopping early on the ones i have close. Going to try to save my preflowering girl and decontamination on the grow room. Hope i can save her. Just barely into flower.

Those little things suck. They are not too hard to get rid of though. Good job on dipping the buds. I have dipped when I had bud rot. I used a cup of baking soda, and a wedge of lemon squeezed in the bucket, followed by a cold plain water dip.

another recommendation not in that link from Sanguine, keep a spray bottle with a good strong NEEM oil mix handy, and use it as a preventative spray for your next grow. If they survive the grow room cleanup than that should take care of them.

Ordered neem already.
Now. The question is.
Still safe to spray this girl? Itl have to be

 

[Rev. Green Genes]

Ya it's safe. It's edible too. It's used as a skin care product as well as as a insecticide/miticide/fungicide . It works best as a preventative. During flower however, hold up a piece of cardboard or something to keep it off the pistils if you feel like it. It should wash off in a bucket dip anyway. Always mind the light distance when using sprays too.

Neem is edible, it is NOT combustible. That is why we don't use it in flower. Neem when burnt is carcinogenic.

Neem is edible, it is NOT combustible. That is why we don't use it in flower. Neem when burnt is carcinogenic.

Essentially all organic, including plant-derived, substances and materials when combusted form carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), the main ingredient of soot and smoke. I would think cellulose fibers (the main structural component of plant cells and tissues) would burn less cleanly, forming more PAHs from incomplete oxidation to CO2 and H2O, than any residual neem components, which are way much smaller aromatic molecules/structures. Also, you talking about neem in parts per million, billion or more dilute in the plant material. But it's the plant material that is likely more carcinogenic when burned, and there is way more of it than neem!

Simply stated, anything organic that burns is forming carcinogens. If you are smoking, neem residues are the least of your problems in terms of carcinogen exposure.

But who smokes cannabis anymore, other than maybe say socially, with joints still good for some such special purposes? I've been using vaporizers for 23 years, and don't know anyone who doesn't use them as their main method. It's the 21st century, and there are better options than smoking.
