TL; DR
Hey everyone! Please help!
Newbie here. Are these thrips or mites?
At first I thought thrips but further google searches leads me to believe I may have mites. No webbing found yet, but I do see creepy crawlies..
At first I thought it was tiny dirt particles dancing across the leaves from the fans BUT my dumbass walked out of the room realizing I grow in all perlite with some coco on the bottom..
So going back in the room, further inspection- these dirt particles are alive..
Anyways, at first I thought thrips so I sprayed the entire plant and the medium with a dawn solution [1 tablespoon to 1 gallon of water] I also put a teaspoon of food grade diluted 3% h202 in my spray bottle with the dawn.
I put about 1.5 cups of diluted 3% in my reservoir of 15gallons as well.
After more research,
I'm thinking mites, I dont see any webbing yet which made me think thrips at first. But the body shape of these pest scream Mites.
I'm like 2 weeks from harvest, I'm in my 2week flush period.
This shit making me depressed because I'm not sure where tf I got them from. This is my 2nd grow over all. indoor tent.
The room itself is always at a cool 64-66 degrees because of the portable AC unit, so I think I'm okay with the room not being infested yet.
I'm going to spray the shit out of my plants with "Natria 706230A Insecticidal Soap Organic Miticide, 24 oz, Ready-to-Use" while the lights are off today.
I'm going to make a habanero spray as well..
I just need to know what I'm dealing with here. How can I treat my yard? I'm pretty sure if it's in my grow room, they are all over the back and front yard.
Thank you for any advise.
I am unable to transport the plants outside to spray them with the hose because of my piss poor scrog skills
- Mites Or thrips or cancer?
- I have two 12 gal buckets (hempy double bucket style) on a self drip every 3 hours for 10-12mins per run
- Reservoir is a 27gal
- Medium is 80% perlite and 20% coco at the bottom
- No webbing found on bud sites yet.
- Seems only one plant is infected right now, though the other one could be now.
- I see little black dots moving around the leaves
- I have a very bad habit of not clearing sugar leaves until they are brown and crisp.. (fighting with depression and anxiety) so sometimes I cant deal with the plant.
- I already sprayed dawn solution all over the plants. [1 tablespoon dawn + gallon of water + 1/16th cup of 3% diluted food grade h202]
- I put 1.5 cup of 3% h202 in a reservoir of 15 gallons.
- I tried to remove as much dead leaves last night but the thought of having the mites crawl on me and then get carried outside the room is hindering me from wanting to touch the plant more...
- I wanna just burn it all to the ground
- I'm going to spray natria today
- Girlfriend won't let me buy lady bugs lol
- Going to make the habanero spray as well
