thrips. little fuckers.. it's on.
fuck knows man, seems they've come on in the last 2 weeks and had a reet old picnic. i'm wounded. but not as much as they will be.
i was up having a shufty round the plants, i put the oldest ones at the back like a divvy and not the other way round so i took em all out and put the younguns at the back. i was looking at the psycho killer thinking the buds look a bit small, and it's leaves were all silver and mottled looking. flipped a fan over and there they are. some almost yellow white, couple of green ones.
weird thing is they've left certain plants alone or maybe they just haven't colonised the full tent yet!? i've probably done the worst thing possible i could, moved everything round devvas.
I put the small buds down to it being more than a bit cramped in there but these life sucking bastard things can literally do just that to your plants. have they no soul, this is my crimbo crop ffs.
hot shot no pest strip in there tomorrow, fans off for 6 hours each night til they're fucked. none of your pansy organic oils please, nuke time
i thought so too but there's not a web in sight, i was checking the deficiency charts and happened to look at the pests bit out of interest....spidermites.....

hey duchie man! likewise regards the saying goodbye's. was so tired/baked normal cognitive processing powers were fubar. was really a treat to meet you and the rest of the peeps at the show! great bunch of guys, good times & high times!Hey Don. Thought I'd pop in and say Hi, finally. It was really great meeting all of you guys and I'm sorry that things got screwed up and we all didn't get to hook up again before we left. I do plan to come back though, and most likely hitting the UK too, so I hope we can hook up again soon. I really did have the time of my life and getting to meet you guys was definitely a highlight of my trip. And I'm missing the Windmill too! These canned Kilkenny's and Boddingtons just aren't cutting it man.
Back to real life...what you got going on looks just like what I have going on, and I'm under the impression it's thrips. I have very small, white, silky moth/flies flying around, Just the odd one here and there, but the same markings that you have. I've harvested most everything now but my reveg's have it going on now, but they're small and I think I can get them under control pretty easy.
So I'm on fairy watch for some DP and DE from BB. Better get to cooking this mix.
Cheers
i'm 118'ing those bitches, i've got their numberthats pretty shit don hope u clear it up. does look very similar to spidermite damage..
