hey guys i checked the girls this morn and founf a lot of white specs ! does anyone know what this is??
Check the bottoms of the leaves, there’s almost definitely something tiny munching on your plants.
have you looked on the underside of the leaf?
notice anything where the side branches meet the main stalk?

Ya I hate to even say it but that looks like mite damage. Get on those bastards ASAP!
Looks like straight up spider mite damage to me. As Dequilo said, check the undersides with a good magnifier, cannot see them with your eye’s, you will see black spots, shit, and lil round light colored ones, eggs.
Hope we are all wrong but doubt it.
I did not even want to say the word mites
I have been working on getting rid of them for a while
they are gone here but they can be a battle
all the best OP

Spider mites you need a microscope to ID them , If you get on them now you will beat them.
Your plants are small enough to do full dips.
Kill them with FIRE!!!

Here is a whole thread on them

Could possibly be aphids or thrips also they also will leave similar spots that your plants show.
Thankyou everyone greatly appreciated !!! im on them now! i been advised to spray with water/lil dawn soap and gently whipe yhem down and yhen hit them with neem
If you can, cover the soil with a plastic bag or something then give them a good blast in the tub/shower. Really get all sides of the leaves and even work them around a bit with your hands. This will knock the majority off, then you can hit em with the neem spray.
I actually got rid of mites altogether on some smaller plants just by using the tub blast every day for about 2 weeks or so. With the neem backing it up I think you have a good chance! Also be sure to clean your grow space thoroughly while the plants are out of it!
Bringing up an old thread… but its got the perfect title…
I noticed these white specs on multiple leaves and plants. They don’t wipe away. This is as good as my microscope gets
Ideas???
I think I just found spider mites on some cuttings I have on the shelf.
Borg time is crucial what do you have on hand?
Safers insecticide. Weed Wacker, gas, fire.
I gotta be quick with sprays before I’m too far in flowering. I’m still early in so I should b ok… for now
