Yeah, it was the best I could do. I figured it was one of those little bastards or similar. It looks like 8 legs to me.
The worst part is that I’m an idiot. I was thinking a couple of the blue kush were males, but I flowered them a little, to make sure, in the bay window.
After taking a break from licking the windows on the short bus, I realized I shouldn’t have put them back.
The best part is, I don’t have too much I want to keep in my 2x4 yet. The Chem was really good when I tried a tester, and I bet I find a really nice blue kush from how frosty they are. I may just have to make paralyzer seeds and try to save a couple clones from those 2 strains. I should be able to clean off a couple clones, clean my tent and be back to good.
Good time to learn a lesson as compared to later on. Still, dumbass…
Well hopefully you have found them early enough to deal with them properly.
Personally I wouldn’t use a clone from a plant with mites now, I tried it to save my GDP mom like that, and all I did was waste another couple of months trying to get rid of them when they re appeared, it only takes one egg to survive.
My thought was to load up a clone machine with anything I wanted to keep. When they root, use one of several methods to clean them, and plant in clean media. If I can clean the clone, and there is not media, I should be good.
Yep, I had one hanging in the veg tent and the flower room for a month. It was sat right in the middle of them, I have tried pretty much everything now, just hoping the predator mites do the job now.
Joecrowe claims to have done it. I believe him. You can either drown the mites, or some people put the clone in warm water for like 25 seconds.
I told the brother in law he needs to start a tissue culture lab!
Edit: There has to be a way. @Kingmambo
I also see where some people don’t like to keep grow threads. I just let all of OG know that I’m an idiot. Again…
definitely a case of the creepy crawlers! Yah I drown em good in cold water. I’d toss any number of leafless cuttings into water while they are submerged and drowning, toss out anything and sweep and mop. The spider mites’ll be fucked for sure. You can do it in a day, break the cycle.
I do it with or without roots, it doesn’t matter to me. If you feel safer using already rooted clones - go nuts! I get 100% rooting even if I strip the thing down to a stick before I root it, but I’m rooting crap with my eyes closed.
that’ll do it
