🐞 Beneficial Insects Notice 🐞

To proactively prevent pests, I regularly use beneficial insects throughout my grow space. While uncommon, it is possible that you may occasionally see a beneficial insect on or around your plant upon arrival. These insects are harmless to people and plants and are an important part of maintaining a healthy, chemical-free growing environment.
