Bug Spray Around Plants

Discussion in 'Growing Marijuana Indoors' started by bubblekarma, Jun 27, 2014.

  1. Specifically, Ortho Home Defense Max.

    It's bug/spider season and spiders love my basement where my grow cabinet is. I generally spray Ortho Home Defense Max all around my grow box and surrounding rooms about a week before a grow, but I have been out of it until a few days ago (19 days into my current grow). I was wondering if this spray is harmful to our precious plants? If not, could I safley spray around my grow box while my grow is underway? I'd like to deter bugs/spiders from the grow box area, but am hesitant to do so with plants currently growing.

    you will be fine. You are not spraying the plants so its no biggie. Better than having bugs that could move into the grow box.

    I like to ward off bug problems proactively. Nothing worse then being half way through flowering and have an infestation.
     
    Do get neem and use it every 2 weeks in veg just to be safe.
