Hi Peeps I have been having some problems with pests. I know for sure I have aphids and I have also found some webbing. I did see a spider a couple times but it was much too large to be a mite. I sprayed the plant with water last night I did it pretty aggressively and made sure to get underneath the leaves real good and today I am not finding much of anything but a few ants, I believe it is finally entering preflower but I am concerned about what I am seeing on many of the leaves, whatever it is it doesn't wipe off can anyone identify this for me? Thanks so much.20230821_122120.jpg

if you keep all your questions in the same thread, it saves us having to search through your posts to see details like indoors or outdoors, although it looks like an outdoor plant with that damage, but it keeps it all together for your own use. make the main post the start of your diary

If you have webs you have spider mites, which suck bigtime and could be hard to get rid of.
You must control them before your bud really starts to get hairy or you will get that web shit all over them, especially at the top of your plant.
I used this stuff called Bang! which is fucking awesome but might be hard to find.
Neem will work on leaves but not so much on the web which protect those little pricks.
If it's possible go over the plant and get rid of the webs and then spray that site.
Get going now or they will destroy your plant.
Good luck :peace:

Thankyou I went through the plant and destroyed a web with my hands, I only found one. I have seen a few spiders but they are much to big to be mites and I suspect they are the same spiders that are on my patio making webs on everything so I don't think I have mites. I sprayed the neem oil yesterday and today I am finding nothing but I am going to spray again anyway. Now I have 2 questions #1 How long should I wait between sprays? And #2 How in the world do you spray the underside of leaves? I have some regular spray bottles and a quart size pump sprayer neither of which spray upside down. My plant is in a 30 gal fabric pot that sits 5 inches off the ground on wood blocks. I have done an extensive LST job on it so it is quite short and bushy here is a pic how would you guys go about getting underneath the leaves? Thanks again for your help. I only have 1 plant mainly because the soil is so expensive so I need this one to be a success. Here is a pic of my sprayer as well.

Oh boy now I have another issue. My plant just entered the flowering phase and the leaves are yellowing at an alarming rate. It looks like both old leaves and newer leaves are affected. My plant is in soil ( proven winners brand) with some perlite thrown in, it is in a 30 gal fabric pot outdoors. I have been watering every other day with just tap water and up until this week when she started to flower I was feeding her ff grow big, ff big bloom and southern ag 20- 20-20. Also for the last month I have been giving her a half strength dose of terminator with every watering. Since she began to flower I have switched my nutes to fertilome 9-58-8 along with the terminator. I use these every other watering and I water every other day. I also water till I see run off. I did read others posts on this subject and am wondering if maybe I am overwatering at least I'm hoping that is the problem. I don't have a PH tester so have no idea what my PH is, please someone offer some suggestions to this I am really worried because it is much to early to be losing all these leaves. Thank you for any advice you can give.20230830_171918.jpg

Hi everyone well for the past 2-3 weeks now I have started to lose leaves at an alarming rate. My plant is only on week 3 of flower and is a 90% Sativa strain so I have a long way to go . I first thought I might of caused a nutrient lock out by over fertilizing so I stopped feeding them anything and when I water I do so until I get a considerable amount of run off so I can flush out any salts and excess nutrients out of the soil this has not helped at all so far. Also when the leaves turn yellow should I remove them right away or leave them until they start to brown and wither? Thanks for any help you can give.20230923_161438.jpg

I just noticed I posted about this problem when it first started. I forgot about that post and started a new one here although no one answered the first post anyway. My apologies for the double postings

I would remove them and do a hydrogen peroxide flush, 1/4 cup a gallon.
