New Grower BR549's First Grow (or, I finally get off my ass...)

[BR549]

Well, there's something there. Here's a photo:

There's liitle black things all over, and even some kind of little worm looking thing. Shit, I'm running a zoo! I'll hit up the help thread.

On the plus side, I never noticed the smell until I pulled this baby out of the grow area to examine her!

Oh yeah she is a little stinker aint she

As for you little zoo am not to sure if they could be mites now or something else due to the lil worm you described, as mites hatch from the egg with legs even in the larval state (have attached a sketch below of the lifecycle of the mite so you can see what i mean), so you have either got mites and something else or no mites at all and another type of pest, sorry cant really tell much from the pic but the leaf damage looked like mites for sure.

Can try tagging a few mods or high team members in your live help thread to get it a bit of attention sooner, this is done by using the @ symbol followed by the persons name ( @BR549 for example)

The following links also have some good info on identifying pests and treatments so would be worth a read while waiting to hear something.

I just finished reading this diary. Someone give this guy some new badge like "The most funniest growdiary intro ever". :smoking:

If those turns out to be spider mites I am not sure if that Biobizz leaf coat that I tipped you about will be enough. I remember some do use neem oil on them (about 2 weeks battle with that stuff to eradicate them) and keep humidity up and temperature down since they don't like it too humid and chilly. I have no experience on this but take those as leads for making your battle plan.

I'm not the right person for dealing with Buggssss - I hate them and avoid them (and have been lucky)

Waira went to bed so in the absense, i can't vouch for this, but found it on you tube and they claim to be killing spider mites on a cannabis plant (it's definately cannabis lol)



Could be sales Bull*** - if it is ... pipe up - i wont be offended

again, sorry for my lack of decent info on this - but here's a wiki howto which looks pretty plausable to me

I like the rosemary oil idea - but again, check with an outdoor cannabis grower before smothering your plants in oil

Could be, but I was intrigued. I'll be the guinea pig...
