Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.
What are these on my Reapers and Chocolate Bhutlah's

What's the goal of the experiment?
Hybrid Mode 01 said:
The goal of this experiment is to compare organic methods of IPM to Chemical methods and see if organic methods can delay the closure of voltage-gated sodium ion channels in the nerve cells of insects, resulting in repeated and extended nerve firings. This hyperexcitation causes the death of the insect due to loss of motor coordination and paralysis.
Organic methods appear to be behind the curve of chemical methods

Interesting! Is that why imidacloprid treated fleas just sit there and twitch before they die? What kind of organic treatment are you looking at?
Looking at your plants from that angle, it seems you have a very good playing field for your experiment! (But still, . ) Back in the days when I worked in a plant pathology lab, I used to do some pretty horrible things to soybean plants. In the name of SCIENCE!

Looking sad, best thing to do is just throw them away... this much infestation it looks hopeless

A "master gardener" who doesn't know what aphids look like? Um, OK....
I'm interested to see if your organic methods can bring these plants back browndd1. Please do update this thread (or start another) with your results.
Browndd1, it is nothing but a thing but you are really close to making more of an ass of yourself than I did when I first joined THP.
First you bait people with a question you already know the answer to. Then you flash the Kentucky Master Gardner certificate when you know darn well it is 24 hours of education, much of which has nothing to do with gardening. In fact, the program was originally created for urban types who had absolutely no clue about gardening. Even today, it is not even available in many rural areas. Come on guy. Unclench and you will have a great time here.
Now I dont have a fancy certificate to certify my credentials as a complete ass. But I am pier reviewed. Here watch this. OK guys, do I or do I not know a thing or two about making a complete ass of myself here on THP?
