8th week problems!!! I don't have much time

Hello guys.. I'm in 8th week. to be precise i'm in 51st day and my plant looks like wilting. I discovered a single leaf with some kind of very small little eggs on it's back and i cut it a few day's ago. Should I cut and trim my plant and left to dry? Yes, it's a bit early but what can I do? Is the THC too low in this time of the stage? Please give me any detail and information. It's my first grow...

you might have spidermites. if you're almost finished with the flowering, i'd wipe off every single leaf and repeat the process over and over till harvest. if you have alot more to go, you may have to spray it with some insecticides. Or you can just harvest now and hope for the best. spidermites reproduce like crazy, so you have to be on top of it. good luck

Well, that was just one leaf. I hope to have a nice harvest quality, otherwise it would be a shame... I'm thinking to harvest right now, tho i'm not sure cause some of the trichomes looks clear or milky or amber... now i'm really confused

If she is still green you have a fighting chance. What color eggs? Wipe the leaves,Get an h2o2/water spray and mist the entire plant/s. Top,bottom & soil surface and look for webs or bugs. Repeating the spray every 3 days will slow them down. But if you plan on growing again i would get the situation under control or they will be back.

I say don't worry too much about it. But clean up your grow space and your plant with some liquid soap and neem or just liquid soap just to be sure. What strain are you running?

I would spray the mites until harvest, they can be put under control pretty fast. I remember having the same problem a few years ago, I sprayed daily with a solution of water and dish soap, it worked great

I know most people respond that they don't use Neem Oil on buds, especially towards the end of flowering, because of the taste. My concern is that it is an OIL and as we know, trichomes are oil soluble. I wouldn't want to take the risk of rinsing off ANY of the trichomes especially during late flowering.

If you need a pesticide, look into spinosad, I think that's the organic pesticide most growers use today. I bought some last weekend and the packaging doesn't say anything about spider mites BUT I've examined several leaves that had spider mites and they were all dead 3 days after spraying. I'll spray again tonight and Sunday to hopefully get any newbies that hatched.

It's White Widow and no, I didn't use any spray and pesticide. I've harvested it. And now i'm waiting for it to dry
