Hello,
Im a medical marijuana patient from California, and Im having a slight problem with a few of my plants in my lab. My plants are 20 days old.

  • PH: 5.8-6.0
  • Humidity: 55-65
  • Temperature: 75-80
  • Rockwool
  • Self watering for now
  • 2 24" Fluorescents 17 watts/each, 2 mini CFL 13 watts/each, 1 CFL20 watt = 80 watts, lights on 24/7
  • Vornado fan on low 24/7
  • General Hydroponics solution: G/12.5ml/per gallon, M/7.5ml/per gallon, B/2.5ml/per gallon, (my plants only get distilled water)

Okay thats that break down, so now with the problem, I barely started noticing these shiny little spots on random spot of the leaves and later turning into rusty looking burns, I've check for bugs with a magnifying glass, and I havent seen any bugs, (but who knows I dont have a 10x lens...:wall:) but I need some opinions, help from the experienced will be appreciated.

yes:wall:.

as i said you need a high powered magnifier to see the as thay can be 0.5mm diameter and see through in colour.

look at the pics and see the difference with a higher powered magnifier.

It's only $12 at radio shack!! It's a 60x by 100x, works just right and worth the price!! But those are spider mites on your leaves!! Take them out of the boxes and plant them in any kind of growing pot, and just see the difference!! Nice grow though, hang in there we've all been there brother! Happy Trails. Gunnie

yeah i know its a useful tool to have, im gonna go pick one up tomorrow if they have it in store, i was thinking about transplanting them into pots filled with expanded clay pellets as soon as the roots grew a little more, do you suggest i do it sooner?

yup indoors, i doubt that transplanting them will do anything either, but i was thinking about doing this:

Gather 1/2 cup baking soda, 1 cup vinegar, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 drops dish soap, mix and dilute with plain water to 48 ounces (a 2 liter bottle will be 3/4 full) and shake well. Put into a spray bottle and cover your soil/medium with plastic. With the lights off, mist the plant all over concentrating on the underside of leaves. Wait 20 minutes and sprits off with clean fresh water, shaking as much water off the plant as you can. Solution is alkaline and rinsing is important in order to remove mites and eggs, and to prevent the solution from burning the plant leaves. Test on a small portion of the plant and wait 24 hours to observe before dousing the whole thing. If you see plant damage, dilute with more plain water and test again.

Shown to work both indoor and out, with success on spider mites, thrips, aphids, clover mites, grass gnats and mosquitos.

(found on growery)

think this would work? have you had an experience with bugs like this before?

thats not spider mites, that guy is a newb grower dont listen to him. On the underside of your leaves, you'll be able to see spider smites crawling with the naked eye. Keep a close eye on those leaves with white marking for little crawling creatures.. They almost look like miniture hermit crabs. Anyway, i would decrease nutrients. It seems like nute burn to me. Keep an eye out for spider mites which you can see with the naked eye when looking closely, and decrease nutrients/...

good luck
