Didn't have captain Jacks, but they highly recommended this not cheap £45 a bottle but will last for along time and says 2 to 3 mist sprays and it will kill the fookers.... I hope. IMG_20190925_161126.jpg

Day will come... Big,Smelly, Beautiful!!
And you drop the fuckin light on her! :wall:
All fun stuff, stay in the fight! :weed:
thats funny you said that, because that almost happened to me the other day when i was raising my lights. almost had a damn stroke. and to the op,...thats a major infestation. i don't have any advice to offer (i have yet to get spider mites, fingers crossed), but taking care of that plant and trying to raise that clone,..it seems like an uphill battle to me. jorge cervantes and several others have a video on youtube about washing buds after harvest to basically wash your buds that have insects or powdery mildew. you could harvest what you got when its ready and and use jorge cervantes bud washing tech to get them cleared up a bit. and then i would make that harvest into some hash, edibles, some kind of concentrate to savor the trichomes that are there. and thennnnn,...i would clean the room as clean as possible, throw away that cutting, and start fresh with a cutting from a healthy mother. das just me though. good luck. man, ive been rambling tonight. i guess i did have advice to offer lol, sort of

Well that's not good that you have mites. I thought those spots looked suspicious. It's a good thing @Kushash had you check under the leaves. As for the Flying Skull, they make good products. I've heard of good results with the Nuke Em and I've recommended that product before. In fact the company that makes it is right down the road from where I live. They also have other products like a three part nutrient line. In fact the nutrients I use called VitaGrow are very similar since they were initially put out by the same guy behind the Flying Skull company and sold at the oldest hydroponics store in Portland called American Agriculture. I didn't know they sold Flying Skull products overseas. But yeah that isn't cheap. That same size bottle is US $19.45 here. https://www.americanag.com/Nuke-em-Insecticide-by-Flying-Skull.html.

Good luck on getting rid of the bugs. They are a bitch. You are going to want to pull you plants out of the grow area and clean that real good as well. Wipe down the entire area with a bleach solution.

Good luck

Yeh I'm gutted and it was a great spot by Kushash spotted it, skul was highly recommended fingers crossed it will kill the fookers and yes that's what the shop told me to wash it all down with bleach... Trust me it will be getting a strong wash down when this plant is finished .... What normally causes it as I'm not sure.
