Spider mites investation at end of bud stage

hebrewdiver · Oct 10, 2020

I think I have gotten a spider mite or some other investation. Started girls out indoors during veg stage. Then moved to outdoor shed when switching to 12/12. Girls were during really nice with some big boobs (buds) go outside 3 days ago and noticed some webs on and in the buds. Now I'm in panic mode because I don't want to trash that girl I put alot of time and money into her. Plus I had her living beside another lovely this one was a blue dream to me and she was not social distant, so I'm hoping she was not infected. What are your thoughts? Can I save them?

We all have smoked webs at some point
You can't fix mites late in flower

Crush them with your fingers spend as long as possible doing it smoke a joint and just crush them to fuck!!! It's slows them down pretty good. Late flower is not the worst time to get em!!

One thing though are you 100% it's not mold? Usually you'll notice leaf damage before webs and some molds look like webs especially in the buds..

Could be because I looked at webs under scope 60x and did not see any bugs in the web. I also heard mold is pretty bad in late flower

They do not really populate a web like a spider and just use it for transportation. How do your leaves look; anything that looks like white road rash?

I looked at the leaves to see if I could see any bugs. Leaves don't look damaged or signs of spots. Most of the webbing seems to be in or on the buds only. The buds seem to be rotting close to the stem or where the buds are the thickest. If it's mold is there anything I can do?

If its mold which it sounds like it is, chop off the bad parts.

If it's really bad and you think it will damage you crop more, then chop your plants befor they get over taken by more mold.

Also if you don't want to take any chances with maybe smoking partially moldy bud, I would do a bubble hash run.
