Spider Mite infestation.
I put the story in the pictures. Long story short, the infestation focused on the lower (ticker) branches of AK2 and this explains the undergrowth compared to her sisters. The trichomes are half-cloudy / milky and she will be ready for harvest within a maximum of 2 weeks. I defoliated her by removing nearly all leaves and put her aside in the grow room. Open to any other suggestions.
I also confess that I neglected the plants and did not check the source of the white point. I also used some of the soils I used in other outdoor plants which I believe the source of the infestation.
Seed Formations
AK2, again produces seeds in lower branches. I did not pollinate this one and there is no other source that she is pollinated. I didn't see any Bananas, too. I am thinking it might be because of the stress from the Spider Mites. Open to any suggestions on that too.
Other Two Girls
I spotted some mites on them too, but it was not alarming. I defoliated the infested few leaves and they will be okay. Jack Herer needs two and White47 might need another 3 weeks and that is it. I think they all will be okay until then. I will keep a close eye on them.
Sorry for not good news this week.
Great looking plants! I just read your journal and had a question. Are these autoflower? Your light schedule says18hours light?
If so, how did you get clones is there a way to take clones of autoflower? Please tell🙏
@MG2009, thank you for reading it and I am sorry if I misled you. They are not auto-flowering plants, and the light schedule should be 12 (I just correct it).
I don't see a way to take clones from auto-flowering plants but I guess you can try to pollinate two auto-flowering plants to get "auto-flowering feminized seeds". I tried colloidal silver method with photo-period ones and the resulted seeds are all feminized and they have a higher rate of success than other seeds I bought from the market. This way you can also store them.
Hope this helps,
Happy growing,
Y
