I do not see a reason why flowering plants would cause their air around them to become higher in humidity.

Also keep in mind that little seedlings and baby plants have higher humidity around them, then it seems. Right near wet soil, the air will have higher humidity then in the air a few feet from the soil. So while you tent may be 30% humidity, little seedlings probably have double that maybe more.

I too hit spider mites from some clones. A couple of sprayings took care of them. I spaced the sprayings 6 days apart to catch any hatchlings. Also, there is a product called "Hot Shot" bug killer. I believe it is by Spectracide. It looks like an air freshener and hangs from the tent. Many growers here swear by it. I popped one in and so far I have had ZERO issues with bugs. For 8$ from the hardware store, it is cheap insurance. I am told that spider mites in the flowering stage can quickly ruin a crop.

Good luck and happy growing!

So, last night at midnight I sprayed veg closet before lights out with the mighty wash-MW.This morning after lights on I took a look and I see dead bugs,I am sure there all not dead , but I will spray again in 3-5 days.I do still see the eggs,so I'm not sure if it kills them but well see.When all mites are gone ,NPK,the people who make MW,make a Power Wash that cleans the dead mites and shit off.Maybe it will wash and get rid off eggs too.So far the MW does seem to be taking effect.I sprayed flower closet this morning and well see how that went tonight.

Female 100%

Males have more balls...


The hermie trait occurs much later into flowering when grown under stressful conditions & that any type of seed may hermie on you including regular but feminized have a more of a tendency to do so !

You are good. Nice girl plant, nothing to cause concern. you can break off those stem-flowers and have a pre-puff if you want. lol.

Those hot shot pest strips do work, yes thats true.

However they will also harm you, in multiple ways.

First, never use them in a grow room in your house if you visit the grow room even semi frequently. It will hurt/kill you.

Second, they coat your buds with poison, smoking this poison can be really really bad.

Here is a small excerpt about the poison DDVP, which is the active ingredient in pest strips.

"The United States Environmental Protection Agency first considered a ban on DDVP in 1981. Since then it has been close to being banned on several occasions, but continues to be available. Major concerns are over acute and chronic toxicity. There is no conclusive evidence of carcinogenicity to date, however a 2010 study found that each 10-fold increase in urinary concentration of organophosphate metabolites was associated with a 55% to 72% increase in the odds of ADHD in children.[1]

Dichlorvos is absorbed through all routes of exposure. Since it is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, its overdose symptoms are weakness, headache, tightness in chest, blurred vision, salivation, sweating, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal cramps."
