I decided to check out broad mites. I'm sure i dont have bugs, I've never seen any thing ever in my tent. But holy shit, these mite symptoms are really starting to add up. Apparently you cant see these lil F'ers with the naked eye. So I ripped off a shitty looking leave and put it under my scope. HOLY SHIT I found the root cause of my pain

Now we know the root cause of the issue you can start to tackle it and try to eliminate these little buggers

Do you have anyway to photograph the invaders? It maybe russet mites which are also very, very hard to see with the naked eye

Think I'm going to give these girls 2 more weeks and then burn them all down if I can't get them under control. The plants in the tent are lookin pretty awful. So I'm not able to get a pic of what I'm seeing under my microscope but I found one pretty similar on google to what I am seeing when I look at mine

I am seeing a ton of these all over under the leaves of my plant. I believe they are the eggs. I haven't actually seen a mite though.


The picture below is 40 day old OG Kush, The pistols are all coming in kind of brown and not very healthy looking. The leaves still have some sort of funk going on with them but are showing signs of improvment.

The plant below is 35 days old gorilla .... she's definitely hitting the garbage bin soon. I've just been keeping her going to help me monitor the situation.

The pic below is another og kush @ about 55 days old. This plant is where i really started to realize i've got some major issues going on. It was really lime green/yellow like it was underfed, with burnt tips, signs of PH issues, and twisting and drooping leaves.

Below is a 20ish day old bubba that is unable to stand on it's own and has some more CRAZY goin on with the leaves..

If this isn't mites , I just have no idea whats going on. @Waira if you get a chance can you have a look at this for me and confirm if those are mite eggs ?

Thanks.

A full view of the 40 day old OG kush… The newer leaves show some sign of improvement from last weeks. But the pistols are all coming in brown and not healthy looking with some drooping.

It definitely looks like some type of insect infestation mate and they 100% do look like eggs being layed

Have you seen any critters around so we can try to identify the invading species?

Are you seeing a lot of eggs on your leaves?

I'll keep popping in as you update buddy

All the best

Now I've had a closer look and flicked through a book I'm 99% confident that this is a broad mite issue buddy and those eggs do resemble the broad mite

Spinosad Could work to help get this issue under control or maybe look for natural predators

All the best

If you take a close look at the top of this plant, is that webbing I can see mate?

Kind of look like it from this end?

Hey Mark, thanks for checking in. It does look like webbing in the pic but it's just some dog hair I think.. Possibly the original source of my invasion. I haven't seen any sort of pest in my garden at all, just those egg looking things,, and there is a lot. I'm pretty OCD about bugs in my house, if I find one it's WAR ! I've been spraying the plants with a product called "end all". It seems to be reducing the symptoms and the eggs . There doesn't seem to be a lot of options for pesticides in Canada. I see a lot of guys use Neem oil with limited success. Spinosad is not available that I could find.

Not really sure what to do next, im seeing improvement but i need to start new plants asap. The OGK is my leg 3 plant for the battle comp, i'd hate to drop out of that, and it's really starting to impress me with her recovery. I'm going to hold off one more week and if the OGK keeps getting better and no further signs of eggs i'll maybe chance starting new plants with that one still around.

My best advice would be to get this crop harvest then remove all old medium, clean that room, clean it again and start back up

If you don't buddy it's going to keep cropping up and destroying your plant's

Have you got a high powered 100x scope to check mate?

I'm still saying broadmites buddy, if you do a quick Google for "broadmite eggs" very, very similar to what you put up

I'll keep popping in mate but, you really do need to eliminate these little buggers



All the best

OGK day 46, still full of what looks like eggs on the leaves.. No sign of actual mites. I really want to finish this girl out. I was thinking of just removing her to another room, but I'm just not sure that will be enough.
It's one week until harvest for a couple of plants, and I'll have to do something then.
