First time grow in zone 9b, lets learn from my mistakes

What is that !? IIIIIII don’t know. A while back I thought I had some spider mites. Then I thought it was hard water spots. Looks like it might be them though. Weird it’s just in the one spot

I'd cut it off. Just in case it spreads. But, I have no idea what that is.

I was just reading that spiders eat spider mites! Which is obvious as fuck now that I think about it.

We have tons of spiders out here. Like it’s a problem

Spiders are great to have around the plants but I've found I never have enough predators to keep the plants clean and have to use something as a preventative. Neem oil is my go to and works pretty well against soft body insects and spinosad takes out the rest

Just thought I would update real quick.

Plants are doing good. Still have the question of where my PH actually is. To my inexperienced eye, they don’t look too sad. So I might just keep an eye on it in case.

I did buy a pump sprayer in case I need to hit them with the bug spray, after that spider web I thought it would be a good idea.

Planning for next summer, my wife and I are in agreement that it’s best to have the plants in a locked space. We just adopted a teen, everyone knows the plants are back there but on the off chance CPS stops by. Bought a dog kennel on amazon, gonna wrap the walls with a shade cloth. I plant to get it set up, and till the dirt under it. Wanna get some garden edging and create a path way. Then fill the two sides with horse shit and let them sit. I’ve been reading about companion plants for cannabis, so I plan to start some in the greenhouse for my winter grow, and hope to transplant them outside for the summer.

Also wanna ask about flowering!

It’s the time of year it should start right. I have One plant that’s been trying to flower since like may. Got some white hairs, they turned orange when the days got longer, then it started throwing white ones July 8. It hasn’t (obviously) slowed down, and is starting to resemble some colas I’ve seen pictures of. FUCKING STOKED.

My question, we start counting days when it starts flowering right? And it seems like september-october is usual harvest time. But what am I looking for specifically?

I have all different strains (I think) so I’m gonna have some guess work cut out for me.

8 to 9 weeks is flower cycle. Maybe longer if you have a long flowering sativa. That's why I know what I have at the beginning, so I don't go through what your going to go through. But, I'm in doors where I have to know !

Did a search of week by week flowering, nothing looks like mine, so I guess I’ll just keep an eye on it? And if it comes out shitty I’ll just make hash or something.
