I left my plants with a friend of mine for 2 weeks while i was gone and i had SPECIFIC rules in place for him to bring them inside at 7pm and take them back out at 7am to keep them flowering 12/12. Anyway, came home yesterday and he just left them outside the entire time and they re-vegged and now are covered in spider mites. One of my plants has some sort of nute deficiency (pic included) and the other one is pretty much a goner if i do not do something to help her. I have sprayed her with some natural soap mixed with water but that doesnt seem to be helping. On i side note, this fucker still wants his 100 bucks i said i would pay him to take care of them while i was gone :evil:

Long story short...I NEED YOUR HELP

so at the moment, i just cut off the ends of the stems with the most severe damage "ones that would not have healed" and sprayed the entire plant with soap/water mixture

I lost her to them in the long run, ordered floramite to use but it arrived at my house too late : (

First rule of thumb: If you take your plants outdoors, leave them there. People have had their grows infested by Spider mites simply by walking around outside and then going indoors to their grow area. Dogs and cats can even carry them in. I won't even bring in Basil or rosemary that has been outside.
Second rule of thumb: Your friend is not your friend if they want $100 bucks for this. Find better friends.
You HAVE to be vigiliant for mites as they are soo difficult to see until it's too late, that it is almost better to spray every 10-15 days with Azamax to keep them in check if they DO make it in. I have a Bausch&Lomb magnifyer in my area just to look things over every few days. Mites like HOT and dry areas and populations will explode overnight if not controlled. FYI- Azamax is organically based and can be used very close to harvest if need be. Sorry to hear of your loss! :(

well first off, that's definitely spider mites. The little white spots are the locations they decided to suck the sap/chlorophyll out of the leaf. Secondly, please start your own thread instead of hijacking mine.

Lesson learned lol. But seriously he WAS a really close friend for over 10 years, its too bad i had to end that relationship right there on the spot. Anyways, the past is the past for a reason, to "grow" from it and not make the same mistakes you did before.

Man i have got to stop going on here after i blaze hahaha
