Well it's been a couple weeks since a last posted an update on my girls. Since then, they have entered bloom, and we're starting to get some dank smelling young ladies out there..however, i am having issues... I have now encountered spider mites outdoors, but i guess what can go wrong, WILL go wrong!!! I found spider mites on 5 or so plants, and am in the process right now of spraying with some "organicide". Hopefully i can get rid of those a lot faster then i noticed them!! Also, the plant that was giving me grief, has giving me nothing but grief since the last time. I tried boosting her with a bunch of different shit, checked my pH levels of my soil and water, and both seemed to be fine. Throughout the garden i would say there are 30% or so are looking "unhealthy". I am posting pictures so you can kinda get the visual idea of what could be wrong... I have switched to "fox-farm" nutrients instead of that crappy "rainbow" grow shit. I was not liking my results at all. The price is right on that stuff, but the results are not.. I have never really had any problems with big bloom and tiger bloom, they've always left my plants looking lush green.. So take a look at the pictures and let me know what you think could be going on with the girls. Oh, ps, the strains shown are purple erkle, purple kush, grapefruit diesle, and grapefruit kush!!

They don't look none too happy, some of them anyways...
What have you been feeding them since your last update?

Did you ever check your Ph? You have multiple nutrient problems and the bleaching of all the growth tips is pretty strange.

This Spider Mite problem is getting out of hand fast...the bastards are spreading like peanut butter on bread!!! Reallllly Creaaaaamy peanut butter too!!!! A few hours ago, i made a mixture or neem oil, organicide, and sevin. I tried to spray as much of the bottoms of the leaves as possible, but I'm sure it's not good enough when it comes to spider mites. I've had them indoors many times, but NEVER outdoors. Im going to introduce lady bugs in a couple days, once im sure the sevin has diminished and the lady bugs wont die from contact....hopefully i can introduce the lady bugs without them taking off right away like they have always done to me before!! I let 1000's of them go indoors, and they all VANISH within a few days. I figure they should have plenty of little bastard mites to eat, and should stay and kick it for a while!! Other then the mites, i also had one of my biggest ladies die....i have no idea what happened to her. It happened over nite..I will try and post new pics tomorrow of all the new growth and then the health issues going on...
...time to go to bed and have nightmares of mites eating my babies!!! p.s. any advise on dealing with mites outside would be great!!

Try beneficial insects, even super mites get eaten . . .

Yeah I was just thinking that myself. They have recommended wait times on that web site for each different bug. It also says to spray their leaves with a soda pop water mix, I guess it glues their wings shut for about a week so they don't fly away.
