Aphids. They seem to be everywhere this season.
2 gillningarThere all only have 2 or 3 true leaves should I try soapy water first?
1 gillaYup. Fill up the sink with soapy water and dunk em. Use tin foil or plastic wrap to keep the soil from falling out
1 gillaOr you can spray the foliage with a firm stream of water and spray with either organic or other pesticide.
0 gillningarNeem oil is a good option, I’ve been hitting some of my plants about once a week until the aphids are under control, then you can drop back to once every 2-3 weeks for maintenance if you want. Gotta make direct contact with the bugs to be most effective versus just a broad spray. If you’re spraying edibles like lettuce check the bottle for how long to wait before harvesting, it’s sometimes just a day or so but I usually give it a good week since last spray before harvesting and then wash well.
