ARE THESE THRIPS AND/OR SPIDER MITE BITES? Maybe it's a notes issue? Looks like an insect invasion though
Magicianstarted grow question 3 years ago
There is some bite marks on the leaves. I have removed the worst off 20+ leaves and applied a pesticide for spider mites, aphids, scale insects 3 times in last 24hrs.
Should I introduce some good bugs? Neem oil? HELP IM SO WORRIED

Look like aphids to me, ladybird beetles will eat them if you can buy/get them and would be the safest way to go.
Spraying more often than recommended is not a good idea, it will just stress your plant, making it an even easier target for pests.
Follow all instruction precisely, besides, you can't kill your bugs deader than dead anyhow.
They will not die instantaneously and there is no "quick fix", just let the spray you have used, to do its job.
I wouldn't use neem, it is not quite as safe as it may appear, and in my country, it is illegal to use neem on anything intended for human consumption, which tells me a lot about its safety or not.
Hope this helps, Organoman.

I know it’s hard to hear a diagnosis announcing bad news... this is where people tend to go see another doctor... I know what are your feelings... I grow since more than 20 years bro 😎
You must raise your humidity level around 80% and simulate heavy rains by spraying your plants every 2 days, the spider might can not breathe in high humidity environment, it will refrain the invasion until buds start to swell. You will have 4 weeks left before harvest from this point and probably have a chance to get some decent smoke before they start the webbing of the plant...

Hey fellow growers. I currently have a magnesium def that keeps spreading even after the flush. Does anyone have experience with Canna Mono Cal 15% and Canna Mono Mg 7%? Reccomend dosage is 1ml. Only to be used with deficiencies because of the high concentration. Thank you!CheersWeek 7

All but one plant is showing some red/purple on the main stems. Temp drops to 66 which I did not think was cold enough to bring that out. Ph is on par with no issues. Calcium def? Worth adding cal-mag 5 weeks into flower? Only source of cal was in the lime in initial blend.Week 11

I was just wondering if someone could confirm,
Some of the leaves on my plant have have copper, dry edges, and a few have purple stems. I think this is due to a magnesium deficiency. Both plants seem to be fine, wanted to know a fix for next grow, if it happens again? ThanksWeek 8

I ovawatad, and possibly ova nuted my plants which led to all sorts of deficiencies (cal/mag/iron). The 24/7 light cycle didn't help. I've reduced the cycle to 18/6 and waited enough to start watering again which my plants appreciated.thinking of using cal sulfur sup: thoughts?Week 7
