Second run

This week I got the surprise of little white dots on the leaves of my near harvest gelato auto... And when I started getting in closer I saw the borg 😔. Luckily, I took swift action after dealing with these assholes last year on my house plants and started to do research, asking questions, and working to remove them. I noticed Monday morning a few leaves looked to be showing a calmag deficiency and then noticed the dots. After busting out my scope I saw them. I immediately started squishing and defoliating. I figure this close to flower it may end up with lower bud density, but save what bud there is. I did a quick rosemary and water spray up front, went and got Azamax for all my houseplants as that appears to be there source, and a prep incase I. Get these buggers in veg next run. (By "all" my houseplants I mean the ZZ and Calidora Alocasia that are in the same room as my tent...learned that lesson). Treated everything else just in case anyway as it's December in Chicagoland and I'm not honestly surprised these are here. Anyway, one treatment of rosemary and water at lights out on Monday. A treatment of SNS217 on Thursday. I'll spray water on the girls undersides and stems at lights out today and hit them with the SNS on Sunday and hope for the best. Gelato is starting to turn amber, but going to let it ride a week or so longer as I legit realized I never switched to bloom nutes and am going to pump that in before a final few flush. Lastly, Not doing 3 different strains next run. These all have different dates and needs and it's a bit time consuming. Super glad I am learning this lesson right now!
