i didnt see any bugs if thats what you mean. it will be a few days before i can get out again, but what should i be looking for?

i dont think i will have this problem when theyre flowering, so ill have to check that avid out. i have an auto pretty much right next to this plant that hasnt even been touched so whatever it is dosnt like the thc apparently

look really closely to under neath the leaves. only thing that resembles to me those red dots its mites. sumtimes they will start off really mild but when you flower is when they get really bad. you can wipe off all the webs and go back a couple hours later and there will be a new web with 100s of mites crawling on it. hit it one time with avid and they are gone for gud. there hard to descri be but they are really tiny and a clear or sumtime black color

Go to your local hydroponic store and get some azotral. You feed it to your plants with just water and it disrupts there reproductive system so they can't reproduce. Also check out mighty wash and that will kill the bugs left on the plant and the great thing is u can use both in flowering with no problem mighty wash is frequency water u can even use that on harvested plants check it out

I just recently put some skunks out and i have the same exact markings on ONE out of 11 plants. Its not mites i know this for a fact. Whatever is doing this to my plants is never present when I'm thier it seems to munch when it wants and flys away. Each day im getting more bites so im not sure what it is and since the bug isnt presently on my plant i dont think Neem is going to do much.

Actually a very light coat of neem oil should repel most insects. So will Diatomaceous Earth if you dust the under sides and over sides of the leaves. Neem is easier to apply though. D/Earth is a bit of a hassle. I use it because it's a little bit safer. I once murdered a plant using neem.
