Greetings RIU'ers..

I'm combating Mites I'm on day 45... I'm tempted to just chop down on friday which would put me at day 48 I'm not sure what strains I'm running because the fucking sticks I had that were labels all the sudden are not in the pots. I usually just base off trichomes (Which show mostly milky some clear a few amber here and there) I've never got my plants to amber stage and I've gone 60-70 days I'm not sure why that is but I have always had decent smoke regardless of amber stage. attached are a few pics

not a noticeable amount? my yield usually isn't the best... I usually get around 1 or 2 off each lady (I have 3 total) hopefully I can get more off this !

Spider marks on leaves.....what does that look like??

Speckles or dots, usually starting around the middle of the leaves (this is the best time to knock them out)

Then it will progress to this (harder to handle at this point and this leaf will not recover from the damage. New growth will look unaffected if properly treated)

Left unattended it will just get worse and worse till it looks like this (completely fucked at this point and you're a dumbass if you let it get this far)

you need to start the attack before you ever see a single one, even if you haven't seen a sign of them for years. just keep killing them anyway as if they were there.

Word, preventative maintenance is always the best. What I'm saying is don't wait to attack those little fuckers if you see them. You have to act swiftly before it gets outta hand.


Edit: I just can't fathom the idea of someone not tackling mites until they see webs like that...

Well mine is pic #2... I saw slight webbing but not that extreme.. been treating since.. BUT luckily I'm so close I will be okay. How many mites have you smoked in your lifetime? I bet you can't count :) but thanks for the info!
