Well gound control we might have a problem??????????? I found afew of the damn Hempmites on my indoor puppies..... They are young into flower so I'm going to do a fast spray regiment with the greencleaner. I thought I got these cut outside before the mother plant got them... Guess I was wrong. It could be I cloned this one long enough and the genetic is getting weaker???? But this pheno has always been a strange one very, temperamental, maybe that's why it's so good. But After cutting clones of a clone for the last couple years might have weakened the strain making her an easy target for pests? But I ain't giving up for now with her.. She's been a good dog my best friend right thru it all,, if I die before I wake,,, water the puppies..... If ya don't know,, thats close to a song............. Feed Jake....
Mites seem to be active right now.

These hemp mites really suck... All I can do was lolly pop them heavy. That way isn't as many leaves for places to spray and them to hide. You'll get better coverage that ways... And that many fewer bugs to start with, in the first place..
The fewer leaves you got,,, the easier it is to beat them........ Least I hope.... Sunday morning or Monday I'll take them out one last time as spray them all with the atomizer on the back porch right before lights out,, then once the lights die,, 9:30 am I'll put them back in. We cleaned the flower room tonight,, even washed the drip rings........... I hope its early enough,,, orI'll have to put the puppies down to sleep...

Pink tiger has mites and she just started flower, I told her to spray with alcohol.

This Green Cleaner has abit of that in it,,, along with some fatty acids and a atad of oil....... You sure Pink has hemp mites? I've dealt with spider mites a million times and they are kind of easy to get rid of,,, unlike these SOBs.......

I just hope this last clone I took of it is mite free. But I should have no problem dealing with them on a small clone?
Yes it's Broad/hemp mites, no signs of spider mites.

Sorry to say,,, it's been a death sentence to most grows.. Takes a heavy hand to kill them suckers. Whipped out half my grows outdoors last time.............. Green Cleaner did the best I've found so far for them... Suckers suck...... They sure don't die easily.....
I had them last winter but it was in veg so I used neem

I couldn't like the post when you said you had them... But I would like the one that sounded like you rid yourself............. My girl are 3 weeks in,, and that's abit farther than I like to use neem products. Myself,, I didn't have good results with neem... I sprayed the mother acouple times and I swear they were backstroking in the puddles on my leaves and asked me for so suntan lotion.....
I alternated neem and alcohol
Hey are you feeding the LED and HPS sides the same? My 2nd hand limited noob knowledge shows that the plants under LED like a little more calmag in their feedings. Not sure how much extra one has to feed though.
It will be interesting to see the final weight too, another large scale grower did a youtube series of a comparison grow and he thought the HPS won with bigger looking buds but the LED side turned out to be much denser.

Well, let's hope I get a harvest? We'll weight it then. One thing I do see when I took them out to spray them,, the LED plants are a darker green than the HPS light..........
yeah holding thumbs mate, my understanding is that russit mites are the devil. Only known cure is to burn your house down and hope for the best.
But maybe try the sprays 1st.....

Burning the house down????????????? HMMMMMMMM,,, man great idea,,, we do have insurance........ And there are much better places here in Oregon to go herbs.. Some place has dry weather till Oct 30th down in SE Oregon. My Birthing Day... Devils night............ But That wood take 3-4 years to prep. To much work having to change over all the stuff we don't want to lose in a fire,, pics or my lights ect... But your sure not far from what it takes to get rid of the suckers. The first sign I see is them little biddy buds in the center that should become popcorn,,, but turn brown and dry up starting from the center working out and up. It spreads up that branch. Once it gets really infested it looks like these,,, Can't find the pic,,, but this more recent will show....
The curl up of the leaf that looks like the edge, and the white should be from the bottom of the leaf... Looks like a water or root problem,,, but no.. I caught this really early outdoors. Later stage you wood look thru a scope and that edge isn't white from the bottom of the leaf,, It's a bunch of dam hemp mites squirming around... By the millions.......... Sickening picture up close....... Hope you don't lose your dinner,,,
Got that off the web... Remember 50 of these equal the mass of 1 spider mite........ Fire might be best.........

But I did dicked around and pulled another puppy from the cloner,,, from the same plants I have in flower... I'm going to give her 'space' until she grows some soil bound roots and I'll treat they hell outta her... I'll dunk her in some kind of acid and fix it permanently,, or she'll be... well outta my misery.
Also took acouple of the Purple Urkles that were needing some soil.....

that is a total bummer.... For the clone you just took, dunk and swirl it in a 5 gallon bucket of your solution? Fully submerged should drown the little buggers.. Maybe?.... Still not cool.... Heck dunk em in your pool and see if the chlorine kills them lol
