Hi All,
My DP is almost ready for harvest (eta 2 weeks). One of my girls has a few white leaves. Is this a problem? Cheers in advance.

I really hope that’s just fading from late flower and not some kind of infection. That does look interesting, though. Better pictures would be great.

That looks like stippling from spider mites. look under those leaves. get out a good magnifier....I'm almost certain.

ok....took a leaf off & magnified it.....there's a couple of red egg shaped things on it, only visible with magnification. I've removed the main leaves & soaked the remainder with neem oil in water, top & bottom. do they spread? do you think it would be a good idea to chop the cola full branch off? or is that a bit drastic? thanks.

I would definitely consider giving those a bud wash at harvest

I hate weed with mites nasty

Not saying it doesnt happen or you should feel bad but yuck lol

If the leaves are that bad they are all over the plant you just havent found them yet

Cutting the branch wont help much

Just chalk it up to exp and wash em when done so you dont roast a bunch when you smoke it snap crackle pop

Thank you for confirming your thoughts.....that has to be a mite infestation. No one wants that. hard news to break.....but at that rate mites caw wipe out a plants health real fast. you're certainly gunna wanna ice water dip those nugs before harvest.
