Summer Wedding

Finally have the spider mites on the outside. Although the infestation never became bad enough that the plant showed any real damage they were prevalent enough that it became my no.1 priority to wipe them out. I used several methods from spraying a strong water stream every few days to remove as many mites and eggs as possible along with one application of neem oil.Most recently I used my vacuum cleaner with hose attachment to remove anything possible from the underside of the leaves. That combination of different methods kept the population to a minimum. I also lowered the temperature in the grow room as well as putting 2 fans constantly blowing the plant to reduce the mites ability to reproduce. The plant is a little over halfway through the flower cycle and more and more leaves along with pistils are turning purple and pink. I cant wait to see what there going to look like in the last weeks of flowering especially once I lower the temperature during lights off and anthocyanins build up adding more colors.
