I had a plant last year that looked like this but probably worst. I thought it was because of something I sprayed on it in the sun or to strong of a mix.. It healed it's self and turned out ok and really frosty. Makes me wonder if our few weeks of 110 degree weather killed the mites or what was actually the deal. I thought I had them inside too with the same symptoms but could not scope a single bug.

same with this plant. ABM and I were looking at it and couldn't figure it out either. I had just sprayed so I thought it was the spray (asamax). It finally healed it's self and flowered but it didn't tighten up. It was a chem dawg not a banana kush. I still have some of it . Think I'll smoke some tonight. They wintered over and got into the SR71 TMB gave me. I never did get rid of the completely . I had russet in dec. on one plant. I hope you don't get these mites Bro !

i noticed that I wrote that. I meant to say I could have them now and I'm going to treat them as if I do . I'm getting the bioworks products that nora has listed . I'm like on the fence about them. even with all the research and help from everyone. they could have wintered over but, we did get a good week of freeze this winter. that should of helped. I haven't ordered yet because the nemesheild has a 4 week shelf life. I want the bens to be full of life when I apply them. Shipping is over night .

Stay on top of them Nuggs! You've got ammo this year!
Last year you gave them those teas and they looked to be bouncing back but those mites took their toll.

Also the guy at Romeo ,Alex I think is his name told me that the bioworks won't work on mites. It says it will right in the faqs pdf. plus it's the BB in the product that kills them. It's a fungus that they eat that blows them up. they don't seem to be up to speed at Romeo.
i hear my rack calling ! you guys have a good night.

Thats tough. Also looks like it could be a little heat stress.

i'm not still dealing with them. I have been still researching them. I don't have any plants outside yet to deal with. I have found much better things than you recomended to use though. maybe you need to read my thread again. You'll never put them down once and for all . Now days it's about prevention.
