DESCRIPTION

WHO CAUSES IT?

The aphid, also known as an aphid, is a small sucking insect belonging to the Aphididae family. These insects feed on plant sap and are a common pest on a wide variety of crops, including cannabis. Aphids reproduce quickly and can cause significant damage to plants if not properly controlled. They are recognizable by their soft and small body, generally green, black or brown, and by the colonies they form in the most tender parts of the plants.

SYMPTOMS

In cannabis, aphids can transmit viral diseases and cause direct damage to the plant. Symptoms of an aphid infestation include curling of the leaves, deformed buds and flowers, the presence of sticky honeydew on the leaves (aphid droppings), and the appearance of sooty mold fungi that feed on the leaves. of molasses.
