could be this but i think u have to go in the shop and get it, the bottle i got didnt look like this one, similer but not the same lol
cheers man. sounds like spraysafe, but a bit cheaper. That stuff stinks too, but there is no indication what the ingredients are, except the heavy smell of Neem when u open the bottle. I suspect it is just a Neem mix with some kind of surfacant added. I make my own version now, using pure Neem and a little ecover dish soap in water. No sign of mite damage yet! Fingers crossed.....I hope I got rid of the little f*ckers with my sauna style hot box. I ran my lights without ventilation for about 8 hours! Obvioulsy no plants in the room. The room reached nearly 60 deg C and I got the humidty up to 80-85% by spraying loads of water on the floor of my room. Apparently, these kind of temps and humidty will pop any spider mite eggs that are hibernating in your room! :fire:

But this is only a viable option if you can clear your room of plants for a day or so.

2000ppm sounds high but the TDS value of soil run-off is different to that of an inert medium.
They don't look too bad at all Welshy.
In fact, the look pretty good, other than a little over feeding clawing which is cool and minimal.
... and the veg girls look down right excellent.

2000ppm is my meters limit so Im not sure how hi it is, Iv flushed 1 of the clones in veg till I get a reading of 600ppm so it should be interesting to see what difference it makes if any.
Over feeding claw great when I havent even fed them :roll: Im thinking of giving it a flush till I get 1400ppm. :eyesmoke:

All plants in the west plus soil have been flushed till run off is at 1200ppm in flower 600ppm in veg, the cheese at 4 weeks has orange/brown spots on 2 of its leaves I must have run 3.5gal/7l through the plants in flower.
The haze has bud production at a good rate for just less than 3 weeks not in west plus run off at 1140ppm with this seedling soil.

Sounds like you've done the right thing with the flushing Welshy.
Those numbers sound fine.
Orange brown spots (rust) usually means Calcium deficiency.
If it's only a couple of leaves I wouldn't worry just yet but some cal-mag will fix it anyway if need be.

Its getting worse but the soil is very wet from flushing not sure if I should give it a hit with some trace elements or let the soil dry first?

Here she is looking sad.





Poor thing Im surpposed to be getting better at this growing lark not worse :wall:

Haze looking good in different soil :mrgreen:

That damage is 'burn' for your soil being too hot(over feeding), not a deficiency.
You already know this from your run-off so flushing was all to could do.
Other one looks good though mate.
You'll be in coco soon I'm sure.
