Help this Lady... Deficiency? light burn?

Ghost of Davy Jones · Sep 11, 2017

This little lady needs your help please. her leaves have these spots on them but the leaves are perfect other then the spots. The leaves are nice and cool to the touch, and they feel soft. They aren't curling up or down, their not ruff or deformed. they are perfect other then the spots so there is something wrong, I just dont know what.. Is it just light burn, (grow tent is pretty bright) or is it a deficiency of some kind? please help if you have seen this before and know what it might be.

Thanks friends!

I should mention that I just got a new light 5 days ago. they were perfect looking until i put the new light in and then pretty much over night the spots showed up. that's why i thought maybe light burn or something.

looks exactly like spidermite damage. Look closely, under the leaves, with a scope

I was looking at pictures of mites and i see what your saying. It does resemble the pics kinda.. If so it must be a very mild case right now because i don't see any webs or bumps or lumps yet. Ill look under the leaves, but what am i looking for?

mites and eggs. if you look under your leaves and they aren't clean, get a scope and look closely.

depends on what you are spraying, if i were you, i would go to home depot and get some No pest strips. read directions and follow them carefully, But,the mites should be gone after a few days, then put them in a plastic bag for later use.

Underneath my leaves are perfect looking. I cut one a blade off one of the worst looking fan leaves and looked at it with my tric scope but i couldn't see anything that resembled those pictures.Maybe my scope isn't strong enuff.

Okay, after further investigation, it is 100% spider mites. I can even see them crawling. Thanks brother. you were spot on with your diagnosis.

I'm reading about the now pest strips. It says that they work by emitting vapor. They also say that the vapor is toxic to humans and should not be used in living spaces. Would a spare bedroom be to close?

As long as you or your pets aren't hanging out in there, it should be fine.
