Time to show your grow.

[HobbitGDF]

I found little red mites at the bottom of a few of my fabric pots cruising around them and heading wherever. I instantly filled a spray bottle with neem oil. I just got some mamoth canncontrol. But it's a sample pack from a seed order.

I tried to soak everything from stems down. I didnt spray no flowers. I couldn't find the mites anywhere but on the bottoms walking their way up.

I dont know what to do.
The light just went out for the night. Plz any advice before the lights kick on in the morning.

Should I buy predatory mites tonight?

I’ve found drops like that and always assumed it’s shit from an insect or something nasty

JeffInCanada not yet...been 2 days of overcast, next couple few is morning clouds late afternoon sun. We shall see. Worried as hell to be honest, but I have one of them triangle tarps to put up if I need to. Fully expected the opposite. Alaska strain dont care bout sun, she's happy. Ol Hulk here gets sunburned and droopy after an hour. Maybe I just gotta let the sun make her angry?

Yesterday's pics. Girls are in week 2 and growing well. I still have double plants growing in two of the pots. Part of me what's to leave them and see what happens the other part well..... is screaming rip those two little fuckers out of there you jackass! Kinda of torn if I should let them grow together or not. Whatcha guys think?

50/50 alcohol and water in a spray bottle 3 times total, once every 3 or 4 days make sure you spray everything in the tent that can get wet concentrating under the leaves..... best time to do it is 2 or 3 hours before your lights come on, shake off any excess moisture from the buds and increase the airflow in the tent. Your fans are probably what kept them down out of your plants spider mites don't like wind

Edit = some plants are sensitive and can get sad with the alcohol you can start with a lower concentration instead of 50/50 try 30% alcohol first

Lookin good 👍 like always... I never grown more than one in a pot but have seen it done seemed like they grew like plants in small pots (stayed small) because they were competing for the soil. I think it's rwise he's doing an experiment with a bunch of plants in a big pot outside, he's thinking with them all together if only one will be male or something like that

 

[HobbitGDF]

thanks so much MeEasy.
i think i got them from outside. i had a compost pile going out there. old veggies and fruits. looks like dirt now. well i brought it inside and made a tea. i noticed there were mites crawling out of the tea. so thats where they came from i think. i threw all that stuff back outside and forgot about it until last night. its week about 2 weeks ago.
well i read alot of stuff last night. i think im going to try what you said, also neem oil, dimeatious earth, extra fan will be put in and im just going to try and not get them anywhere else. im in such a small cluttered place i hope i can fix this issue and just get thru harvest. i can close shop after that cause ill be moving.
THX SO MUCH FOR ADVISE

I wanted to give this girl
some love because she’s the neglected plant in the back of the tent that doesn’t get the attention some of the others get (y’all know what I’m talking about) She’s been doing her own thing and happy that way. Very easy strain to grow, Strawberry Lemonade from Barney’s. I did a double manifold at 3rd and 4th nodes then gently bent her down under a 18”x18” screen to flower. Beginning of week 7 since first sign of flower. 5 gallon pot with 6wk veg

Sorry everyone. Tried a different way of loading pics and you can’t scroll through them

Third time is a charm! I finally got feminized pollen using coloidal silver solution. I stayed on top of spraying 3 times a day, starting 2 days before 12/12 and continuing for 3 weeks. I didn't notice much but pistils dying back on the flower I used for the first 4 weeks, now day 36 the flower is covered in pollen sacs. I appreciate all the information posted here to help us. Its making a huge difference in my medical grow. Very happy farmer here.
Strain is Afghan Kush, using 5 gal air pots, Fox Farms Nutes, 600 Watt HPS

Well done - don't see that too often thanks for sharing

 

[HobbitGDF]

great job man. ive tried 2x and failed both. im trying again now with mimosa evo by barneys and gorilla girl XL auto. i hope to have your results ya know. good job

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Oh man that's great news to hear Woodsman67 way to stick with it. What did you use to pollinate with what strain?

 

[Woodsman67]

SoOrbudgal its just Kush feminized seed grow. I started with a known well established strain. But its definitely a confidence builder

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Ohhh OK Woodsman67 wow your gonna have folks knockin on your door wanting your secrets LOL.

 

[MeEasy]

Yep I bet that's where they came from, be careful with the neem it's not good on buds it will leave a film on them that's not good to smoke. I'm in the middle of moving to, I hate 🤬 moving...... hope you get those little bastards out of your tent

 

[bboyfromwayback]

Yea I’m bout to goto google 😂🤣😂

 

[Woodsman67]

I ordered these seeds originally from AMS seeds a few years ago, what they claimed were authentic Afghan Kush. All I know is its done very well, I had no issue breeding them, turning the original 5 into hundreds, its been a super good medical strain and a reliable quality as well as quantity in fairly short time. Now I'll have feminized. Feel a bit mad scientisty

Crossing Gold Nugget photo with a Lemon Haze Auto to come up with 2 different flowering types of Golden Lemon this winter. That is my seed breeding goal
