At his advanced stage I would defoliate (so no place to hide) and spray with 3% peroxide (1 teaspoon per cup of water), at least to keep them under control …
Edit: This doesn’t look like poo to me but maybe mites, take a damaged leaf and check the back with a scope …
Fuck sake
I’m gonna bomb the fuckers and hope for the best I reckon. I’ve no idea how they got in. My indoor stuff is kept separate from my outdoor. It’s all started indoors then moved over to the tent.
I’ve maybe carried them in from outside. I’ll keep the thread updated on what happens with it. At this moment in time I wanna take it outside and pour petrol on it BUT the price of petrol wouldn’t be cost effective
Meh it happens. Usually not to me but its what we’ve got to live with. I’ll pull it back I’m sure. I’ve still got 5 - 7 weeks of bloom left. If I bomb the fuckers I’ll spray them down every few days with PhD water see if I can dilute the bomb remnants down.
The baby’s from the ladybugs are what feed on them 100% so I’d gave to colonise them somehow so they breed
Thanks for your help @allotment. I dunno if they would breed in time and kill the mites within the remaining bloom time. Outdoors I’ve no doubt they would help
Not sure if we are talking about the same thing. You can order beneficial mites ready to start killing your spidermites, a few hundred for 10—20€. No need to breed anything, you just place them on the plant. Not talking about ladybugs.
I’m uk. Our predator mites are ladybugs. It’s ladybugs offspring that feed on the mites. Adults eat pollen. I’d have to somehow get them to breed to get the offspring to accumulate and feed on the mites. I don’t think I can buy ladybug eggs over here but I’ll do a Google search. If I can I’ll order some.
