Here is a Choclate Rain from The late Jetdro. We did a trade and he snuck in a single bean of CR. I was lucky to get a female. After I harvested I tossed it back into veg. I was very pleased when she reveged . Here she is today.

Scrog update. Lots of buds. End of update :rofl::rofl:

My commiserations on the mites, I have just hopefully got rid of mine, I have said that at least 10 times this year so far but it’s looking good atm. Seems to be the year of the mite, lots of growers seem to be getting them lately. If you have caught them early you have a good chance of getting rid of them quickly.

Thanks for the support! Out in the country it’s tuff not to get them this time of year. Going forward I’m going to cut back my indoor summer time grows to make sure this shit don’t happen. Last time I had mites I fought for 6 months and then gave up. I lost everything. Hopefully it’s not russet mites but it looks like them.

theyre truly a bitch, one of the reasons I don’t d o nothing during the summer.
Powdery mildew also, you can find it all over outside this time of year.

Damn that’s rough! Hope you don’t have to lose everything again and get em knocked out.

I’ve been religiously changing clothes before I go down into my basement at all. If I think I might have to go out in the yard I won’t go to the basement until its dark and I’ve changed. So far so good but its annoying. Gotta be better than having mites though. Best of luck!

On my big TV monitor it looks like a 2 spotted mite. Its been about 6 months for me as well probably longer as I dont know when they showed up but I think it was January when I got some clones off a buddy. I even quarantined them for 2 weeks and sprayed them a couple of times.

From my experience not wanting to spray toxic crap on the plants. I think its easier to just flower out whats in flower and get rid of everything else and then sterilize the grow areas and start again. I have been using a Home Defence bug strip, you hang it in a space and it kills everything. Lasts for 3 months, even kills the eggs as far as I am seeing on the 2 plants I put in with it, in my veg tent. I am just using those 2 plants for seeds, the bug killer was in for 3 weeks and no new damage or mites found on the plants and the leaves I marked that I knew had eggs on, all the eggs have gone a dark orange brown.

As soon as I finish trimming my last flower plant the bug strip is going into the flower room, probably tomorrow, as I am trimming down the end of the garden and all trimmings are going into the fire pit and getting burned.

Thanks guys. I think I’ve got them only in veg rooms at the moment. Flower room looks good. But I’m seeing thrips in there ffs lol…only a few days till harvest. Thank god. Hopefully what I take down will be enough to get me by. Now I’ve got to start paying better attention to my outdoors. Im gonna need the smoke to fill the bags.

It’s been a f’d week. My roof got taken off yesterday in the storm. Moisture inside due to the dampness is 82% lots of battles going on! Wish me luck

Damn man that is a rough week…

If I were you I’d cut clones of everything i think I’d want to keep and put them in a totally different area once rooted. Blast them under the tub spigot/shower daily for a couple weeks. I got rid of two spotted mites on a bunch of small mother’s doing that. That way you can at least save your genetics and have some clean new mothers to work from if the big battle doesn’t work out

That’s a shitty situation nature’s got all kinds of stuff that can invade the garden. I remember Bob hemphill from costal seeds saying that he used a paint sprayer with micronized sulfur foliar feed and that would kill anything. He sprayed every 5 or 7 days for two months before he would take a new clone into his library. I’m not exactly sure if the brand or kind of sulfur I need to look into that further but I have been lucky enough not to. I hope you can get back on track if you are not flowering you should be able to treat the IDK I’m going to look into this further and get back.

Ouch. I thought lugging buckets of waste water out of my basement was a pain in the ass haha. Good to hear you’ve got seeds of everything, the hardest part of doing a reset is losing precious genetics.

@Subcool (RIP) swore by wettable sulfer as the only way to get rid of russets. After a LONG hard battle this was what finally worked.
