How to treat spider mites in flower?
Voltron1started grow question 4y ago
Best spider mite treatment while in early flower? I want to completely knock these things out, but I'm losing the battle.
There are no webs, but they're still present and you can see all the white marks on the fan leaves.
Please help!

What home remedy kills spider mites?
One easy method is to mix one part rubbing alcohol with one part water, then spray the leaves. The alcohol will kill the mites without harming the plants. Another natural solution to get rid of these tiny pests is to use liquid dish soap. The soap suffocates the mites without harming the plants where they live.

Might aswell throw the plants you will not kill all the mites and eggs you may think they're gone untill the eggs start hatching again mits build up a resistance to these products you spray on them so it depends what generation mites you got

You can try fighting spider mites with a predator mite. There are at least three species that will decimate a spider mite infestation without damaging your plants. You can buy some of these at a nursery or garden center.

I spray with a pump up weed sprayer. A little dawn soap and water, and blast the underneath of every leaf then the top sides. Repeat as necessary. Spray just before lights out or after lights out. Cheers

First Grow 4 weeks into Veg - Let my humidity get too high for 1 night. Need help with mold/septoria/?Last 3 days I've pruned diseased leaves every morning, foliar sprayed peroxide leaves & topsoil, & added some to watering solution. Is only affecting one plant in tent. Humidity no longer issue (was waiting 4 inline fan). If I keep pulling off leaves it's going to die anyway.

F44: dozens of gnats stucked on buds & sugar leavesHey,
I noticed dozens of gnats stucked on sugar leaves and buds trichomes/resin... I tried to pick them by hand but there are too many.
I saw articles about bud washing which seems to be a good thing except for higher mold risk.
Would it be the only way to smoke bug free weed?

translucent pest in soilHi, last watering I've seen tiny translucent insects (about 1 mm) emerging from the soil. They are fast and can jump like a flea. I assume they live in soil. What are these little monsters, should I worry about them and what should I do ? TIA

Pest infestation left my plant folded and weak. I treated it, but now blacked out leaves?Ants were farming an oval shaped bug's secretions that was eating my stem and going underground, leaving a trail of a film-like substance.
Treated it with neem oil, cigarette butt tea, garlic and dishwasher soap to fend them off. Black leaves now. Tips?

BugsJust noticed a small grey Rollie pollie looking big on one of my seedlings. Only found one and believe I killed it but what should I do to prevent/get rid of these bugs. I have another seedling that I didn’t see bugs on and a flowering plant that hasn’t had any issues with bugs

handelt es sich bei den Tieren um schwarze blattläuse? (Habe leider keine besseren Bilder hinbekommen)
Ich habe auch einige größere schwarze Tiere mit Flügeln an ähnlichen Stellen gefunden.
Denkt ihr mit Wasser und anschließend mit einer Seifenspirituslösung abspritzen reicht?

What are these bugs and what to do about them?Hi,
I spotted these on one of my balcony plants today. Somekind of mites?
They were around the sugar to middle sized leaves on new growth. It's around early to mid flower.
I removed the leaves that had the most on them and tried to get rid of those who were left. What else to do?
