    Brown stipules, curling calyx, no white hairs ??

    I'm assuming the best time of day to spray this mixture is early in the morning. But, for this first spray, do you think it would do more harm than good to spray this evening?? Delivery on the Potassium Bicarbonate is 6:30 tonight :/ I'm just worried to let it go any longer than I already...

    Brown stipules, curling calyx, no white hairs ??

    Ok so I looked further and think I figured it out. I'm really stoned and the black legs on the milkweed aphids just didn't add up with what I have been seeing. But an Orius Insidious nymph sure does :) Already sprayed with the spinosad this evening thank you for the great suggestions and all...

    Brown stipules, curling calyx, no white hairs ??

    After further investigation I found the black/silver/brown bug is called "orius laevigatus" which is biological control for thrips. I have also concluded thrip are my mystery worm like creature. However still trying to figure out what the attached bugger is. Not sure if it's a phytoseiulus...

    Brown stipules, curling calyx, no white hairs ??

    The moment of truth has arrived Drum roll please I have attached pics of 3 bugs found. Two I believe may be predatory mites, but the third is new to me as of today and moves like a worm. I included two close ups and a pic of leaf for size comparison (this little thing is super duper tiny) I...

    Brown stipules, curling calyx, no white hairs ??

    Awesome, thanks fren. You have really saved me a lot of guess work and investigating, I really appreciate it. So I did some scoping on the problem child and found two different types of bugs. One is a microscopic orange worms which I smooshed trying to get a pic and the other is a tiny gnat...

    Brown stipules, curling calyx, no white hairs ??

    I absolutely can post a pic in the morning, fingers crossed they aren't russets. They are bigger than a spider mite, so my hopes are still high. This is an awesome community, so happy I found you guys! Oh, perfect! Do you mind me asking how often you apply this mixture ?

    Brown stipules, curling calyx, no white hairs ??

    So russet mites are also known as "predatory mites" which are good, but they are bad for my girls, is this right?? Lol. I definitely have orange pear/tear shaped mites but was leaving them as I honestly thought they were helping naturally with spider mites and thripes. I cringe seeing a bug...

    Thank you so much for all this info. I will check the stem in more depth in the morning. With the spinosad, is this safe to use all the way to harvest??

    Brown stipules, curling calyx, no white hairs ??

    Thank you! I'm in the NW suburbs of Chicago. I forgot to mention that when I first noticed the discoloration, I also noticed orange mites and freaked out. Sprayed with Castile soap/water and blasted with hose. But, Upon further research they are said to be predatory mites (shiny, pear shape...

    Brown stipules, curling calyx, no white hairs ??

    Hmmm. I do see signs of something nibbling on a few leaves which told me time to get some BT, but haven't seen any caterpillar droppings or physical worms. Now I'm intrigued about a burrowing bug in the stem. Are there other signs I can look for that would indicate this is a possibility? I...

    Browning stipules and no white hairs only brownish red tips emerging from Calyx

    Hey guys. First time grower here and I am stumped. I have 5 girls growing outdoors in the Midwest, no knowledge on strain as they were just for fun, to see what I could do. All 5 are in early flowering stage but one is just not like the others. All stipules are browning on inside edges...
