luckily I havent run into spider mites before but I did have fungus gnats and I got this stuff called Safer brand bug spray that worked really well. It says that it will kill spider mites though. Its a pretty safe insecticidal soap for edible plants and was only 8 bucks for a big bottle. If you do have to use it during flowering, im sure their is some way of cleaning them if necessary but since its for edible plants you should be fine. In my opinion anyways.



So I was giving buds a full check up, because theres alot of big colas, so I was checking in between them when I spotted one of the leafs around the bud turning brown. I instantly thought budrot. So I was like shit, so I moved the bud and looked inbetween it and the stem, and I saw tightly spun web. Then I saw that part of the stem going to the cola had been getting chewed up, and was all brown. There was webbing all in between some of the huge colas. I am so pissed. the stem had been chewed up so bad the cola was about to just break, so I cut it off, and am drying it.

Im not sure what to do now, because im pretty sure that if there were spider mites there, then im pretty sure they are going to show up everywhere. Should I just harvest early? I mean tempatures are 85 degrees and they are outside and its really windy, im not even sure how they managed to get on my plants, but of coarse they did. Im so pissed off, I kind of dont even want to grow again im so depressed. Not trying to sound all emo, but its just shitty yakno, you work so hard and everything is going great and then some bugs ruin everything. my purple one is in the same "earthbox" but seems to be untouched. But im thinking they are going to spread all over. Not sure what to do guys : (
