Sprayed plant to kill mite now this.

This is what the plant looked like when i noticed a spider mite.

Decided to ask a friend for some advice and they gave me this.

3 hours after lights came on i noticed the plant looking like this.


2 other plants sprayed. 1 showing the same condition only minor other showing 0 symptons.
New to this so take it easy on me, i know i probably should not have sprayed anything on them and just released some lady bugs but i got worried.
I believe i caused some sort or toxicity or burn but i have no idea how to fix this
Running under a 400w HPS at 30cm distance from canopy.

What should i do?

Did you spray them while lights on?

Sorry, should have asked if the leaves were still wet when lights came?

If so, the wetness on the leaves acted as a magnifying glass and burnt them. Not much you can do about it now, keep doing the normal routine and hope for the best.

what did you spray bug begone? looks like you used to strong a mix or sprayed with the lights on. hopefully you got the mites.
the leaves will die off. hopefully you haven't started flower

What should you do? Stop spraying that stuff on your plants. It's in too strong a concentration and is burning your plant. It's paraffin oil. It probably works great on plants like roses and citrus trees that are much hardier but it's obviously not friendly to a cannabis plant which has leaves much more fragile. Plus it comes from crude oil. All you can do now is let the plant recover.

Next time, spray them with peroxide for bugs

Not sprayin
