Alrighty guys, it’s been a week since the application of the diatomaceous earth, 7 whole days! Seems the little bastards are gone.... for now anyways, we’ll have too see what happens with time. But more importantly, I think between the treatment of spider mites and the raising of the EC, the...

I've done a bit of research on these spider mites (as we all have) and it seems their strength lies in their quick ability to become immune to conventional pesticides and insecticides, sure, a multi-pronged approached attack may work, using different chemicals on rotation and what-not, but 12...

Haha will do!

Have I gone too far? (See images)

These clones were taken from an out-door plant so that explains it, new clones or seeds aren't an option at this stage. I not too concerned about stunting the plant, as long as they can recover, they're going to be mothers so keeping them in veg is the plan, and I need a lot of clones so...

Alright, tomorrow is a new day and with this new day the massacre shall begin!

Shimz you little beauty!

So this DE, how is it applied? Do I need to concoct some form of foliage spray?

OMG I HAVE SPIDER MITES!! All this necrosis of leaves has distracted me to the point that I have failed to noticed this parasitic attack.... Okay number 1, is this a battle that can be won? Number 2, is this the cause of all my issues?

Russell or broad mite you think? Is this really something I should be looking at? I don't own a microscope....

You're right, something is not right somewhere, but when that something seems to be nothing and that somewhere is no where it's really hard to know what's not right.... If with this change nothing happens I will try a new line of nutrients.

Yeah the only reason i'm going up in strength now is that it's kinda the only thing I haven't tried...... They grew the best for the first 9 days and EC was 1.0, they started showing signs of whatever this shit is on day 10, the only thing I can think of is that they "ate" most of the...

Alright so I flushed the reservoir, cleaned the roots and have replenished with 150 ml of both the A & B nutrients plus 30 ml of the Roots Excelurator to my 100 L of tap water with a natural EC of 0.1. The entire mixture now reads an EC of 1.5 and the pH is at 6.0. Now we wait...

Yeah maybe they are hungry, I'm absolutely lost, I haven't tried upping the EC so let's try that, I'll give them the recommended amount, 1.5 ml/L of A & B, so that'll be 150 ml of each for my 100 L res.

And my base water is from the tap, EC 0.1.
