  3. 1 was meant to be harvested in 2 weeks i had to off it the rest of the way and pick and choose the saveable bud. This current one is 1 month from expected harvest bud its not looking good as it should at the time in its life. It should be alot more progressed than it is now

  4. I can see the webbing just fine. It's spider mites.
    BURN IT ALL.
    Looks like it is way advanced as by the time the webbing is that bad it usually means the plant is toast.
    Can try spraying with Spinosad.
    Spray, Wait 2 days, Spray, Wait 2 days, Spray. The triple treatment with a 2 day wait between sprays allows the eggs to hatch out the next generation and again.
    They are the worst infestation you can get and are a stone bitch to eradicate.

    Should be found in your local garden supply.

  7. Personally I would burn them, disinfect and start over. But that's just me.

  8. Don't just release the ladybugs into your room. Build them a house and they'll live longer and not run off.

  13. I'm not a pro but I would take the loss and start over.. they will keep spreading to the other plants... disinfect and clean tent.... sorry for the loss brother.
     
  14. That’s progressed pretty far, I personally agree with everyone saying to burn it disinfect and start over.

  15. A true horror story. I am so very sorry for your loss. When did you first think there was something amongst the plants?

  16. When the leafs started to change in a way im not used to seeing from an auto strain i grown before is when i first took notice i had some issue at first i thought nute burn from something but it had little specs upon closer observation and an even closer look i saw these micro spiders moving everywhere even on my metal tomato cages. My 2 newly flowering autos are infected i noticed but right now they have not attack the leafs but my big momma plant thats budding that went to waste im leaving in there untilly 3000 ladybugs come and then im throwing big momma away and gonna let the ladybugs save my young ladys so its not a complete disaster i got nothing else left to meet my quota for mainting enough smoke for personal medicinal use. So if i can save my 2 younglins ill be a little happy

  17. Sorry this happened i don’t think your keeping them off the younglins by keeping the mom alive, there multiplying by the day and traveling to find food because there overpopulated on the one plant, you should toss the worst out and keep with the plan to try and maintain on the ones that don’t look bad at the moment. Also look into ordering some predator mites. For when you have the mom plant out of there and have sprayed the younglins 3 times to knock down the numbers release the predator mites

  18. I was looking into the predator mites after you mentioned them. Anyways how effecective are the predator mites. I currently got ladybugs on route to me and will be here friday morning are lady bugs slower than predator mites at cleaning up the spidermite problem.

  19. The ladybugs won’t discriminate and they will eat the predator mites. The predator mites are only effective at controlling them once the numbers are low so you would have to toss the bad one and spray the baby’s first
