I got killer genetics this round, I also got killa Broad mites:(. I wasnt gonna post a journal this round but once i confirmed the bugs were present I thought i could benefit from a documented struggle and what to look for during flower in future runs. I seem to forget the phyical tell tail signs unless i have pictures to remind me.

So far ive hit everything with avid (1.5 ml per gal)twice 5 day interval, waited 10 days then flipped the room.

Pictures below were taken at day 4 of flower. Ill get some better lights off shots up soon and show the few plants that are still showing damage signs.
Mostly everything is looking lush, but a few weeks ago plants were looking real bad. I estimate having broad mites added about 10-15 day of veg. The key was identifying early on. It started with wierd looking defficencies in some plants and unusual cupping of leaves and funny looking new growth, older leaves had a leather like rigid feel.

one 3x6 bed of wifi 1 and 2 (1 strechy and fire dom, 2 indica structure and white dom)

What up Goo, a few plants still show signs of damage, but hopefully I can jus pull off a decent harvest. Ill be applying incecticidal soap and neem every week till i cant no more.
As far as were I got them, cant really say, I should do a better job of quartining cuts as i accumulate them. I think u get broad mites when u get lazy!

no worries dude, i dont mind questions, first run with H&G was with their coco, i liked it yes i run RO and Add CALmAG. Even tho im in coco, i perfer aqua flakes because when i mix up 55 gal drum it can sit there for a few days with no problems,

why is the res seemingly better with the aqua flakes? I would think the only addition would be cal and less p and k for the cocos base. just a long time hg user and your input is greatly valued.

Jus wanted to make sure the rez didnt get all gunked up, and my understanding is aqua flakes was made with that in mind. sounds like you know ur H&G, only thing i can tell ur forsure is Ive been running aqua flakes almost 2 yrs and never had any issues with it. prolly wont ever change because if it aint broke then i dont wanna mess with it.

Day 11
After a good deleafing and sucka branch removing- plants show little to no signs of infestation. I have microscopped some new growth and do see what appear to be eggs so im assuming broad mites r not completely gone. Ive also applyed a neem and incecticidal soap foliar right after pictures were taken. The 2 Avid applications 5 days apart while plants were in veg really seemed to do the trick. Hopefully i can make it thru harvest with no real infestation.

Heres some pictures of a bunch of leafy happy plants @ day 11

GSC cookie Fourm cut in a mini bed 3ft X1.5Feet. Ive read she was a picky gurl and i had a hard time with her early on, what i did was start feeding he half strength nutes compared to everything else and put her on the edge of my garden with little direct light. SHES DOING THE DAM THING now, so much, that i decided to put her in a better spot in the garden under direct light.

Damn I had a white Bubba that did that same thing around a year ago.. It even happened 2 a WiFi #1 & the plants juss didn't grow any crystals on them they turned out bunk.. I chucked the plant b'cuz I juss thought it didn't like my room..I wonder if I had BM's.. I spray my plants with different things 2 kill bugs so maybe I had BM's & killed them b'cuz I've never had that issue pop up ever again after I tossed the white bubba..

Hard to say Goo, but i think u did the right thing as far as getting rid of said plants, and doing preventative sprays.
for me as soon as my plants show that something is wrong I check everything step by step. Coming to the conclusion i had BM was heartbreaking, I would have not known if i didnt check the new growth. atleast now i kno when i c leathery old fans, crazy cupping, and unusual deffiencies in new growth, i might have a bm infestation. Seemed like Avid really did its thing. hopefully now the neem, insecticidal soap will get me thru harvest. thnx for stoppin by
