Third pic looks like insane spider mite infenction, if you can find it Einstein oil is meant to be the best. Also some supervit or some other plant pick me up would help em. Also are you still feeding them some n?

I hear the spidermite infestation but I only had them, well seen them twice and were killed right away with "Boom" I keep looking for them but do not see any more signs of them. I sprayed with "Boom" last night just to be safe I will use it once a week untill the last week of flowering(The bottle says I can use it up to 3 days before harvest.) It also says it will help restore he plant from spridermite damage. I am using the DNF 2 part Bloom for nutes.

Thanks bro but I assume you seen the last two sets of pics??? They look nothing like they did before the OD of nitrogen (I think) now I think they look ill but the White Widow still looks fine. You think they look normal Grow Space?

These are the nutes I am using. It's a two part bloom formula part one is like 0-3-3 and part 2 is 3-1.5-3 I think or close to it. Should I go back to my cheap 15-30-15 flowering ferts? The DNF is strong but the NPK numbers are low??? whats up with that? If I use the DNF do I HAVE to use the fortifier???

For the DNF I'm in soil and used 30ml of each part of the DNF to 5 gallons of water.... it says 2.5 ml per liter. I think I wasn't even full strength.

Thanks fdd2blk, Will "Boom" kill thrips? Should I use a little dish soap/water or Iso/water to kill these guys. Also I'm having a hard time killing what I can't see.

i'm not sure of BOOM, never tried it. i use foggers.

Can you recommend a good fogger? Also what do you think about using vasiline around the base of the stem to trap the mites climbing up the stem?

One more question... Boom says to only use once a week and okay until three days before harvest but if I use dish soap (Ivory I assume unsented) how often can I use this???

i use a pyrethum fogger from my hydro store. i snip off the locking tab so i don't have to use it all at once. i lightly fogger every few days until the bugs are gone.

i try not to use anything the last 2 weeks of flowering.

So I only seen bugs twice two weeks apart they whould have only been there a day or two max each time do you think it would cause the damage I'm seeing??? Also i'f I cant see bugs or webs should I keep trying to kill them? I'm sorru about all the questions I just really wanna save these gals. Thanks again.

the leaves look like they have bug damage. that's about all i know.

So what do you guys think about using vasiline around the base of the stem to catch the bugger on there way up from the soil.

Just a quick update the girls are looking much better and seem to be on the mend I keep finding bugs and trying my best to kill them but seems I will only be able to hold them at bay.

Heres a few shots. Just struggeling through spidermites!

Here's an other update. The mites seem to be dying off I havn't seen any move in the last week almost. I will spray two more times 3 days apart and hopefully that should be enough. On the second last picture you can see the damage left by the mites. The skunks have all been stressed to the max during this flower between broken limbs and spidermites urg!!! Oh well I have learned for next time. Also to note the WW seems to be un-harmed by the mites just a very few white flecks and no breaking of the stems. I am giving the skunks two weeks from today and I assume when I harvest them I will be giving the WW two weeks from that point.

P.S. the first two pics are of the WW

Very impressive.

Thank you Raw, I can't wait to do it all over again and hopfuly not eff them up so much this time. They are stressed out and spidermites got to them. My cab was not really a pro job... It's better now but still a few things need to be changed. Thanks again.

Thanks your too kind. Personally I think they look rather shitty. LOL Maybe I'm hard on my self but I'm really upset about the spidermites and all the stressing it's caused my plants. I'm sure they could have been much healthier and ubber fuller if I had not have nut burned them and allowed them to get infested with bugs. My room was clean but my tent is in the basement and it's not so tidy there I will be much cleaner next time and have a much more watchful eye on the underside of my girls skirt.

Hey dude they are looking very nice dont sweat about the mites. They will still fatten up a lot so you should get a nice harvest either way. I guess this is the argument for doing a sog, because it takes such little time if you cock it up its only another batch of clones away, but if you invest what 10 weeks of vegging and then it goes wrong thats a lot of time to waste.

Remember go by trichs not just the date on the packet and once you have harvested these plants clean out the ENTIRE room and bleach the shit out of it. Only way to make sure the mites are gone.
