Striped lynx spider are not very well talked around the cannabis community, but I personally adore them. They almost don't make any spider net and they spend their whole life on top of their favorite plant hunting pests. In this video he is eating a black ant but so many times I have see them to hunt Caterpillars and everybody know how valuable is the help to control them.
The tree on this video is a Kush Cake x La Bomba ganja plant breed by a Californian couple that lives in Ko Samui and they give the seeds to me.
The last season I had one or more than one Spider like this on top of almost each plant.
From the internet them say Striped Lynx Spider doesnt make any web.. is kind of true but still he is a spider and in real world he make some little bit. About the net house inside the leaves you have to learn to distinguish them because also some caterpillars them make the same and they later eat all your plant.. so the one of the spiders is usually less compact and lighter . I don't remove them if I can
Them eat mostly caterpillars, flies and ants maybe also aphids. With the caterpillars they engage on very cruel battles were the caterpillars spill green blood everywhere and them don't die quick, sometimes I feel very sorry for their destiny.. but so what , that the nature.
They also seems to be very territorial and to become attach to the plant they live on.
This Spider Linx has followed this flower all the way to the dry room a d the curing jar of course when I have discovered him after the pictures I released outside.
