Hi brettsilva welcome to the forum!!

I have never used Merit 75 wp, but I have used spinosad.
You do not mix in your nutes!!!
It is a foliar spray.

The brand I use calls for 4 tbl per gallon.

Read your instructions mixing directions are required to be there.

Good Luck

AWESOME!!! Thank you very much Dreadscale!! ya man, I was about to pour it into my water/nuts. Close call there.

Ok, I got me a bottle to spray it. Im going to mix the Merit in with it. A double wammy ya know.

The spinosad I am using is the Monterey Garden Insect spray. It says 4 tbls as well. Is this just a one time spray? or do I have to spray it more often?

thanks Dreadscale

Don't over do it. Most people end up hurting there plants because of panicking over bugs. Hit them about every 3 days, being sure to spry the underside of the leaves. Most bugs have a 3 day egg cycle, so if you hit them about every 3 days you'll get them when they're young when they're easy to kill.

The easiest way to keep bugs out of your space is to use a No Pest Strip. They are like $7 at Lowes in the garden section. This eliminates the error in applying too much or not enough.

If I were to grow cannabis, I would only do so to supply myself and my close friends. Doing this would take myself and my friends out of harms way by knowing the source of our cannabis, as well as take hundreds of thousands of dollars off the black market annually. It would also lower the demand of black market cannabis, and would ultimately help keep cannabis out of the hands of minors.
