Spider mites during flowering

[buffit66]

Had great looking buds 2 weeks till harvest tried to kill spider mites with SAFER insec killing soap, turned all my white pistols. Dark red have I ruined my harvest my tricomes seem to still be doing ok

I'm dealing with the same thing. I used AzaMax which is safe to use up to harvest but it turned all the pistols brown. I've got about a week to go until harvest. I found a banana yesterday and I'm more worried about that. I don't think we've got too much to worry about - at least I hope not. Misery loves company?

buffit, if you got webbing in the buds, you'll be smoking spider webs and dead spider mites. Not exactly a savory thought.

Buffit, so sorry to hear about your loss!! But welcome to the forum and the next round will be better!!!

Sorry for your infestation, Dagmar!!! Hope something's salvageable!!!!!

Things were looking good until I found a banana - yikes! I was too late to stop the pollination

I don't think you've hurt your buds, but is it possible to post a picture of the plant so we can see?

So you will have seeds, right? Not a total loss then...
