my first grow went really smooth untill pre-harvest(WTF) veg phase was easy as hell i only really had to water them and give em some miracle grow now and then. i was about 1/4 through flowering when i had to move them because the neighbors could start to see them.... anyways i had no other place to move them so i moved them to the basement (HUGE MISTAKE!!!)
So now im thinkin everythings kosher just gotta wait a little longer... the next couple weeks i start seein this stuff in the soil that looks like moss but its white, i didnt think it was a big deal because it was really small and only in a few places so i just mixed the soil around on the top untill it was gone. i continued to see this increasing each day untill the plants started to look like they were losing mass on the buds. i was really concerned so i went to look for some organic pest killer ... what i found was a product called Organicide and right on the front it says KILLS SPIDER MITES. and yes it is organic ...contains a blend of sesame and fish oils. but this ended up being a total flop because the next day after i used it, THEY MULTIPLIED. so i have to find the source of the problem... which seems obvious... the basement. I moved them upstairs so they can try and regain some strength after being in the cold basement for about 2 weeks.
3 weeks later out of the 9 healthy plants i had im left with 2 because the others were infested and were well past dead in under 3 days. the 2 im left with were the least infested and looked like it could be controlled but now they are dying in the same way that the other ones did.. its leaves from the bottom to the top are shriveling up like they got the life sucked out of them. every morning when i water them the soil is about 90% covered in what im assuming are webs from the mites (the white moss stuff)
and i need some help quick because from the looks of it the 2 that i have left , are to be dead in about 5 or less days and i really dont want to give up on them being this close to harvest.... ive been keeping these girls alive since late august.
