I know leaving dead leaves around can attract them. But looks like a new grow from scratch aye Billy? Have you got any pets that may wonder into grow room? Cats? Dog?

I'm from new zealand (known as australias cousin) but have been living in Australia for 12 years! Haha Aussies dont work as hard as us kiwis but their good people none the less lol. Brix readings you say? Nothing wrong with researching it! How good would it be if it works!! Put it in a bottle...

I'm in Australia and finished an outdoor grow maybe 6 months ago. I understand exactly what your saying 3rd Monkey!! Always seems to be something different. Had these white butterflies everywhere. Didnt think much of it at the time. Until catapilars were everywhere!

Yes takes a bit to dial in some strains and work out their upper and lower limits etc. That's where having 1 pot for 1 plant (unless all cloned from same mother) can be very helpful i think. Some strains are very forgiving and could be run at 1600ppm or 1000ppm in flower. Maybe theirs an idea...

Yea so am I. I remember you mentioned this on a post not too long ago. And theirs always that 1 hater haha. But I think you have to have experience with these resilient f%*#%rs to really appreciate something like DE.

Ahh ok. So that's how it stops their life cycle. Kills them before they have the chance to reproduce! I'm going to look into DE i think. Be good to have some on hand just encase.

Only a week! Thats nothing 3rd Monkey! I reckon I cycled through pesticides for about 2 months before I just chopped them haha. Good stuff 3rd Monkey! And shims!!

And I'd recommend leaving plants in veg until you hopefully get rid of them Billy.

Wow!! I can sleep tonight haha. Ask 3rd Monkey about DE. Sounds very effective. I have tried alot of different pesticides for my spider mite infestation and when you think you have got them they come back stronger and more resilient to the pesticides you have used. I ended up getting rid of my...

great another nearly indestructable pest to worry about haha.

Yea it's strange. I've really under fed in veg and plant growth generally slows (but still grows) plant colour lightens and lower leaves turn yellow and drop off from lack of nitrogen. But I've never had my plants look burnt.

Ohh ok. Interesting. Yeah his infestation didnt look anything like billys issue/s but still worth a look i suppose.

Still worth a look though Billy!

I'm hearing ya! I think its bugging me more than the op haha. Just jumped on you tube to have a look at broad mites! Very interesting. Stealthy little shits. Looks different to what the guy was showing on YouTube. It usually causes skinny new leaf growth and leaf tips curl but sideways if you...

Yea, I have heard of root staining with some nutrient brands. Hopefully thats all it is!?

Never heard of or had to deal with broads! But if it is broad mites i hope they aren't as resilient as spider mites!!? The plant looks nothing like a spider mite infestation to me though. I imagine they would be similar in the way they feed off the plant? So would have similar effects to the leaves?

Agree with you myke that when the ppm is staying the same for too long, plants aren't up taking nutes and may need a res change to remove salt buildup. But I've found you can prolong res changes by simply keeping the ppm at the lower side of the plants requirements. I just noticed in another...

Hey shims. Infestation of what??

Yep, and that something IS somewhere! but atleast its narrowed down to grow water quality, ph, water temp, air at root zone or nutes. Something that can initially stuff them up a bit is not washing the crap off the clay balls prior to planting in them, but i doubt thatl be it as you've changed...

And personally ive never seen plants look like that from being a little hungry..... upping the strength could make it worse? Something's not right somewhere. I personally doubt they are being slightly under fed. I've currently got a chemdawg in a scrog in week 7 of flower under a 600w hps. And...
