Hi,
I had planned to try a greenhouse grow this summer, however the opportunity to acquire some clones a few weeks ago has brought about some changes to my plans. I am about to setup a small 1.2 x 1.2 x 2.0 tent with 600w digital ballast.
For the last 3 weeks my clones have been surviving under basic home use led strips, on 16/8 timer. This has kept them alive better than expected and I was quite pleased. I had noticed that 2 of the 4 plants were in different pots, and had evidence of being re-vegged, as in they had produced alot of '3 pointed' leaves. They seem to now be producing 5 or 7 points, although there is a bizarre swirl shaped stunt to some of these points.
Worse news still, while preparing to repot and move to grow tent, I have noticed spider mite issue on at least 3 of the plants. I assume they came from the clone room, and have been enjoying the dry heat of a my front room, in a paticularly cold uk spring.
I was hoping to get some pointers from far more experienced growers than myself, about what to do, whether to give up andf try and source fresh plants, or hpow to treat the spider mnites before moving to the tent? Ive attached pictures, and the plants are skywalkers, appx 5 weeks old (from what the seller told me when i acquired them 3 weeks ago..
thanks for reading!
