Oh dear, oh dear my ladies have contracted spider mites and I failed to recognise it and it's gotten established. I thought I had a nute deficiency so missed the early signs. I shoulda posted on here, you guys would have identified the problem sooner.
I have been growing in hydro for years and never had a pest problem so just wasn't on my radar but changed to soil recently and apparently this is more common.
I am about 10 to 15 days to harvest so have ordered 4000 predator mites to drop on the little b@$#^&s tomorrow, and not planning on spraying anything in the groom.
Then once they are harvested, I will do deep clean before next crop.
Anyone got any feedback on my approach or can tell me if this yield is likely to be greatly reduced or contaminated with bugs or eggs?
At the moment buds look ok but maybe a bit slow on putting on bulk.
