No clue what I’m doing, but first plant is astrochimp. 3rd week into flowering I think. Starting to get calcium spots or leaf Sephoria, what to do?

Check on the back side of leaves and make sure you do not have mites.

 

[Madbud]

If it brushes off its pollen. If not, check the underside of a leaf with a strong magnifying glass or scope for mites.

Agree, that’s my thought also.

 

[Chefdafuts]

Agree, that’s my thought also.

Didn’t see anything moving. What should I do about the leaves since this is the third or fourt week of flower?

 

[Greatlakes]

They wont always be moving but will just look like very small microscopic dots.

I'm guessing mites or thrips.

If you are in flower then I wouldnt spray anything. Just ride it out. Maybe do a bud wash at harvest before you hang dry (a cup of peroxide to a gallon of water) you just swish your buds in the bucket and it will knock off any bugs and kill any bad fungus that might cause rot

I do it all the time.... very clean tasting smoke

I’d check closer, something is spotting the front of that leaf, need to have at least 20 power loop to see the little pests...very small white spots moving ever so slowly and black pieces of just guessing excrement...

The leaves affected will stay that way till they fade, discolor and fall off naturally.

 

[Chefdafuts]

I have about 120 colas growing, just trying to not have the yield drop.. I would like to finish with a couple of oz’s

 

[Dirtbag]

Could be mites but could also be other pests. I see some leafhopper nutes and other odd spots.

 

[Chefdafuts]

Here are some leaves off the plane. Brown spots are popping up... I’ve got maybe 7 big leaves yellowing so if I’m in the flower stage it’s to late to trim, what should I do

 

[Chefdafuts]

HELP - checking my buds out tonight, harvest is tomorrow. Under a scope at 40x I saw a worm.. not big yet... what should I do to get rid of them! Thanks

 

[LittleDabbie]

Woah that plant is NOT ready for harvest tomorrow?

There's barely any bud formation so I don't know what it is you're going to harvest but everybody has told you you have bugs; you have mites and probably thrips and someone who would know mentioned leafhoppers

that's what your problem is, not a few brown spots on your leaves, the bugs are likely why your leaves have brown spots, good luck.

 

[Greatlakes]

Yeah agreed. You have a long ways to go

Wait you actually dip your buds in that solution? For how long?

Bud washing quickly for a minute and loads of dust and grit comes washed out, saw a YouTube video and would do it on any outdoor grow..

thinking back to my premature, unwashed buds from last summer! I was none the wiser

120 colas? How much are
You planning to yield. Can we see a picture of the pests.

That's a lot of fucking colas. (Does he mean buds?) Cause that's a LOT of fucking colas. 120. Man I wouldn't want to deal with THAT many plants... Where are the rest of them?

 

[Noobmaster69]

If you haven't decided that you have pests under your leaves my first instinct is to say that that's a form of fungi called leaf septoria which I'm battling currently. I live near woods and it's everywhere this year in Michigan..
Serenade disease control ...not advised to use on the buds but you can and it didn't effect the smoke , I'm getting lots of compliments on Flavor so no fear but still spraying the buds at all is uncomfortable just be smart about it don't overdo it and make sure you have a s*** ton of air flow after you're done spraying!
Happy growing!

Morning all, that pic was from a few weeks ago. I used dr. Jacks dead bug and got ride of the mites. Now weeks later this is what it looks like. The terpenes are mostly milky but a few clear a few Amber, but the pastilles have turned brown but I’ve got some that are still white so I was going to do a partial harvest
