bugs that like cannabis:

Fungus Gnats
Spider Mites
Thrips
Hemp Russet Mites
Root Aphids
White Flies
Leaf Miners...

and on and on.

And just because the word "pesticide" is used doesn't mean they're adding carcinogens. Neem oil is a pesticide and it's pretty benign. Azamax is OMRI certified. Pyrethrum is made from chrysanthemums.

There has to be more information before you can say, "This is the absolute worst thing ever!!!!".

Mighty Wash is nothing more than frequency water while Avid you'd need a bunny suit and respirator. There's SO many different pesticides...all the way from Cilantro Oil and Cinnamon all the way to stuff that we'll haunt your DNA.

It's so vague to just say "pesticides".

And yes...Azamax, Neem Oil, and Pyrethrum are all used on a regular basis and always has. That doesn't mean you're going to grow another head out of your neck if you consume cannabis treated with these items.
