Don't use alcohol, this is likely to burn/kill your plant and have seen this exact thing happen (dead plant) to someone on this site who thought using alcohol would be a good idea. Neem oil is the way to go. Spinosad is banned in the States for use on commercial cannabis crops due to the dangers of the ingestion of residue, (according to the "Pest Control Products Act") and is under review as a safe product in Canada (according to "Health Canada's Pest Management Regulatory Agency").

That looks terrible. My friend had some red spider mites. We made a mix of water and vodka and blasted his plants. Not the nicest way to deal with them but it did kill the ones he had and stopped it. I've got the question up from when I asked it on my profile somewhere. But that in comparison to yours is nothing we found a few mites. That looks full on infestation. Growinggrannys advice would be the safer option. Cheaper one get some alcohol and get spraying.

You've got a terrible problem, don't you!! You need to grab some Dr. Zymes Eliminator or some Spinosad asap - spray everything (top, bottom of leaves, stem, branches) just before lights out.... get a handle on that quickly or you're going to lose your grow! Good luck!

Sagging leaves I have (2) 9 day old purple punch auto seedlings. They both have sagging leaves and were fine yesterday when I watered them. I think it’s because I have them in 2” peat pots inside solo cups. They get plenty of natural sun. They weren’t watered for 3 days before that.

Hey, anyone got any idea or clue what's going on?I thought it was a manganese or iron deficiency from an early watering with high pH. Though I've fed/watered my other 2 plants pretty much the same stuff but she seems to be reacting really poorly. She seems to be getting better slowly.. I think. Thanks for taking the time. :)

Is this pH related?Hello, mates! Anyone knows what this could be? Searching I found that it could be pH related. I use pH controller from ferts (pH perfect from advanced nutrients) since the beginning, so I think it's odd that it could be a pH issue. p.s. 3.5 weeks of flowering Thanks 🙏 🙏
