Is it too late?

[tundra73]

I had 2 plants that I started inside in March and until now they were doing fine. I transplanted them from 3 gal plastic pots to 10gal smart pots with local soil, worm casting and perlite on 6/10. The only difference in the soil mix from the 3gal is a higher percentage of worm casting, about 30% total.

I water and fertilized them at that time and again on 6/12 when the leaves were drooping , they came right back up and were happy. Watered again on 6/14 and noticed spider mites and bought some Azamax and diluted 12ml to one quart of water then sprayed on the 16th in morning before the sun was on them.

No later than 2:00pm the tops of the leaves and stems were twisting and falling over. I didn’t know what to do so I watered one of the plants to see if it would help but it didn’t. By that evening they were both looking like they were dying. As of today the 18th of June I think it’s too late for them to bounce back. It looks like transplant shock except that they were transplanted a week ago and the leaves and stems are twisted.
I have some seeds I could get started but is it too late for the outdoor season in Oregon (Columbia River Gorge)?

Sorry to see this mess. I think you over nuted and melted them. When you transplant the new soil has new nutes in it . You transplanted and feed and than feed again 2 days later. you over feed them. You have about a month and a half of solid vegg time left. Pop those seeds or go find some clones. Don't over do things.

Yeah. I don't feed transplanted plants ( if they are going into amended soil) for at least two week maybe three.
We're in the same town Tundra, I've got a good source for clones if you want. I'm picking some up this weekend.

Spray them gently with lots of plain water. Dig 'em up, get as much of the roots as you can. Put 'em in a bucket with holes in the bottom and hose 'em down, roots and all. Put 'em back in the dirt and cross your fingers. At this point you have nothing to lose.


Consider using habenero pepper spray for mites.

I think you used to much Azamax. I use 1 tbs per gallon. You used almost 1 tbs per quart. Some sprays will burn if you use even the recommended amount. Ive learned to stick to one tbs per gallon of oil based sprays of they are likely to burn. Some strains burn easier than others. The thinner leaf lighter colored strains burn easier than thick dark green leaf girls.

In the future.. Use Neem oil! It's all I use for pests and molds, PM etc and has never let me down! It's natural too!

I recently over sprayed during the heat of the day with azamax, it left the plants with yellowing new growth, some even went white and died. But they all stayed upright even the white ones lol. IMO maybe transplant shock, if they looked this way upon transplant or hours later, or maybe to fast of a transition from inside to outside? GL

Whenever you spray anything, try to spray early in the AM so the plant can fully dry before the sun hits it, even Neem.
