    Help!help!help! Spider mites are trying to take over!

    Hey, just wanted to report how the All Seasons Spray Oil is working. I'm in veg and I have lady bugs that have kept the Broad Mite population to a minimum, but I haven't been able to get rid of them all together in about 5 or 6 weeks. So I started using All Seasons about 10 days ago, in...

    Need some kind of filter for my intake/exhaust to keep out mites. +rep for help

    thanks for the help +rep I'll check them out as soon as I sell off some of the clones no Monday. I was thinking of building a "top hat" like filter, I imagine it can be sewn so i figured I'd sew it. The top hat shape will increase the surface area and should reduce the drag, I'll put them on...

    Nice one Growman. I thought I'd also contribute since I took pics last night. My girls are just getting over a bad nute deficiency that was originally misdiagnosed as burns. So they lost a lot of their lower leaves. But at 10 weeks, they still look pretty good. I'll be putting them into flower...

    Not sure if the yellow turns back, I always assumed not. I'm having a nute deficiency problem myself and I've been clipping the yellow. I clean through my plants every 3 days. It also helps you see if there's any new damage because you're not left wondering if the damage was from before you fed...

    Need advice on a pH tester. +rep for help

    Thanks for your help +rep to both. The local grow store has a Hanna Gro'chek Champ Ph Tester for $62.95, the Oaktron is twice the price at $128.95. If the Hanna is good I'll probably go with that one. But what's the "junction fiber" and "renewing the junction" all about? Do yo uhave to...

    It's ok to use that stuff as long as they're both organic & not chemical based. It's important that you check that. After adding nutes to the water check the pH. If you don't have a tester and are short on cash, you can get an aquarium tester pretty cheap (under $10). If you have the cash...

    Thanks everyone. If no one knows of a more accurate way to test pH, I'll check on the "pen testers" today.

    *Pictures*Plant disease or deficiency?*

    Blood Meal is the one with Nitrogen. I just treated the soil with it last night/this morning. Just sprinkle some on top of the soil, rake it in a little with your fingers, or one of those little flower bed rakes if you have one, and water. I used 1/4 cup for each 10gal pot, not sure if I went...

    Need advice on a pH tester. +rep for help

    I'm soil and all organic. I was using aquarium pH tester (test tube & solution), but I just tried to pH after adding Alaska Fish Emulsion that starts out brown, and I'm sure the brown color in the water threw the test off. Plus I've been told that's not the most accurate way to test. So it's...

    Thanks for the help. +rep (if I can) I'll check them out. Hopefully they wont mind teaching me about calibration & "junction fibers" and "renewing the junction". It's still all greek to me. lol I'm using organic nutes though, not chemical. Hopefully they'll have a source for organic sulfur...

    Need advice on a pH tester. +rep for help

    Hi everyone. I'm going to need to buy an electronic pH tester tommorow. I had seen them before but never used one. I thought you just stick the end in water and get a reading. But I was reading a description and it talks about pulling out 1/8" of the junction fiber to renew the junction. Can...

    OK, did a search and I think I found it. They called these potato bugs in NY. Is this them? http://www.pestcontrolcanada.com/sow_bugs.htm These things are slow crawlers, and they might dig, not sure. The only place you should have problems with them is outside grows. If you're growing outside...

    Sorry, still not finding it. If you can identify the bug on this site http://entomology.ifas.ufl.edu/creatures/ I can probably tell you if there's a way to protect against it. If I don't know off hand, I'm good at doing the research.
