  2. I'm on the iPhone app and the pics won't load when zoomed. Before i try to answer your question , i have some for you: Do they have wings? , what color are they? , are they creating webs? It looks like aphids but again I can't tell because of the zoom factor. They do look to be damaging your leaves a little bit, either that or internal plant problems idk because of the app.
     
  3. I can't really tell on the wing part but they are milky white crawl and very tiny no webs
     
  4. I'd say get some ladybugs, try a miticide, Hot Shot No Pest strips, insecticidal soap (only in veg from what ive read) , or making a natural solution (like hot pepper spray or garlic mix etc) . I'm currently trying out mighty wash and im only on day two so I can't tell u how it is. I've used soaps during veg but I had to apply every 3-5 days .
     
  5. Ok cool thanks ill get some lady bugs cause I'm already almost harvested have a couple more weeks left hopefully that clears it up if not use it all for wax lol

  6. If you are indoors I recommend the HotShot No Pest strip. I also have been conducting a review on mighty wash. I had an infestation and I can say after two days of application I don't see any more mites . Now this doesn't necessarily mean all of them are gone as eggs can still be lying around but I can say it works for the adults! It can also be used all the way up to harvest . You can even spray some on your finished product but try not to let it mold. Ladybugs can migrate away so u will want to enclose them somehow , use screens or build one. I hope this helps you in your grow :)

  8. Anytime BudFanatic,
    I apologize for not asking if you were in/outdoor ,the size of your grow space and amount of plants you have. Either way, everything I mentioned above works great! I actually had more problems with grasshoppers and , most recently, locusts in my outdoor garden than I did with the mites and aphids. I switched to indoor and will never look back. After a couple more soil grows I'm gonna try out Budslingers DWC with some of my own personal modifications. I suggest moving on in if you haven't already and put up some fiber screens (they are blue, woven fibers with cardboard edges) around your vents if you have a tent, works great both as an intake filter and mite repellent at least that's how I'm doing it for now .
