So I had clones.. something wasn’t right from the start!

leafs started cupping a week or so in and I got my scope out… russets and spider mite! A double team

cousins believe it. So got some killermite out and after a few applications the russets where dead but the spiders where still there only found one each leaf max but I know how they breed

So I got some sulphur didn’t mix well with the water I couldn’t really understand how to do it and it just clogged my sprayer

I heard some essential oils can do the trick and I had some theivs oil to had so chucked that in and soaked the plants

I don’t know what happened but it’s nuked them!!! Most the leafs have dropped and burnet/dead there’s a few bits of life left in a few places

safe to say everything dead in the grow room but the plants are on there last legs

I read even if you have a viable leaf Left then the plant will recover and start going again?

it’s got a good root system and I dont Want to start again if I can just let it heal ….? What will happen to all the branches where all green life is dead ? Can I just veg it out till she comes back?

Ohhh they burned back . Within a hour
I think one has had it but I’m hoping the others as there’s some healthy green will survive if I just keep it in veg till she’s grown back again .. maybe

its bad bad. whatever left living wash it with plain water. my instinct tells me to wipe the leaves with weak iso solution soaked cotton to eliminate the oil left on the leaves but my brains says stfu you are gonna damage it even more adding more chemicals so maybe you can try it on one leaf on each plant haha or just warm water till you get most of the oil residue off and hope for the best.

Yeah I have left them for a few days to see if they would perk up, I thought it was game over. Recon if I clean them up and do some lst they will be fine and grow back again ?

you never know. starting over might be easier but you dont want to throw them away so this may be your best shot. if its not getting worse atm though i wouldnt clean at all. no need to stress further.

Those plants are fried. By the time they recover you'd probably be better off starting over. I've used Green Cleaner on my indoor plants for spider mites, never in cannabis, but it is certified by some states to uses through the last day of flowering.

Ooffff. Those are torched, I would start over. It will take a lot less time to pop a new bean. Plus you can clear the tent out and bleach the shit out of it. I had two spotted mites for way too long, almost a year. Finally took them out with acephate. It's a systemic, so it is taken up through the roots. Mites eat, mites die. Leaves the plant in 15 days

Thank I will look into that
I have taken all the bad leafs off and new grows coming through quite quick

But guess what after a hard look I found mites!! I can’t believe it. Lucky thing is there’s not many leaders left on the girls so this would be a good time to finish them I think .

I got flowers of sulphur powder and not micronised I think that’s why it didn’t mix with water well but I can’t find any information on it

Update they’re coming back … some quicker than others. Started feeding a bit more water trying to soak the medium (coco) because it felt like the bottom was dry. One or two of the worse of plants have dropped from last feed and are pale compared to the others also like … thinner leaf’s .. over watered ?

Also been using need oil and yet to find a living mite so that’s good. Between that and killermite and mitacide were looking good ….. considering
