Helllllllllp! What do I do here? Only seems to be the dark devil out of the 3. Age is about 60 days so far from sprout. @jingo

Use a hose and wash em off in a different area and repeat daily.

Ouch, not good. I know guys that will use insecticidal soaps even this late in flower, but IDK. If you want to wash them with water, then a natural plant oil spray might be in order.

You can try to gently vacuum them off. If you just now got aphids then you can probably buy a bag of lady bugs at a feed store depending on where you live.

In the US there are feed stores everywhere.

Will got try to get some ladybugs... also have sprayed some Safer brand insect killing soap this evening

I am bringing inside for some A/C and dry cool air.

Neem oil.

....no neem this late guys, too much oily residue!.. I recommend a spinosad spray, and manual removal on the leaves,.. likely, you'll have to try the washing technique on the colas right after harvest,... a two stage rinse will be fine, no hot water or any of that nonsense,... also, as the bud dries slowly, the aphids not stuck to resins will leaves as the juices dry up,...

Alright so I really fucked up. Before I did the soapy insecticide I did a neem heavy spray as well. 1tsp in a 32ounce bottle.

Confession I sprayed all plants, buds and all!!

Kicking myself this morning for being an idiot.. anything I can do to try to remove the oil or flush the plants maybe?

Do a Google search on washing your bud after harvest, there is a baking soda method guys swear by.

Thanks bud will do a nice washing with these for sure! I got some lady bugs on the the way. Just planted some marigolds nearby as well to hopefully attract them in. I just really hope didn't fuck up the grow and taste, these are all looking really good otherwise! @jingo
