Red bugs and leaves turning color
I only have the one plant, it sprouted June 1st, and started flowering the first week of September. Its about 2 feet tall.
It was outdoors up until about 3 weeks ago, but than it started getting snowy and cold so we brought it in, now we have it in a box lined with reflective stuff and a couple of those really bright curly bulbs.
about a week ago I noticed some of the leaves are getting spots, and today I noticed white stuff under those leaves and red bugs on some of the lower the buds.
I'll try to get pix up as soon as possible, what can I do? will my plant survive?
we were planning to harvest it on Christmas or soon after if it wasn't quite ready.

May the wind always be at your back and the sun upon your face
I agree, putting plants outside is very risky. You'll pick up mites. I use Safer's Soap for them.Originally Posted by Perfextionist420
bastard spider mites....
spidermites are a compleat bitch and can devour a plant in days lol sucks man but every one will get them at least once
last time i had em i bought pestoff it was like £18 from my local hydro shop worked straight away
there is also one called spidermite stop
that them ^^^
yep, thats them.....
I remember on trailer park boys, they got a bunch of lady bugs to eat off their mites without spraying stuff on the plants. would this actually work?
yes actually it would work if you could get enough and make sure they do a thorough job. mr green did it in his hydroponics system with success

lady bugs are good but they infest the area ther in and can be a bitch if you dont keep an eye on them also there is a preditor bug i think it works for mites it fights and feeds on the mites then when all the mites are dead they attack each other
I'll see if i can find any, I doubt it because its been cold.
If I use spray is it going to reduce the quality. or make it full of poison?
Here are the pics
