Good attitude, bro! I'm afraid I probably wouldn't have such a positive outlook! Haha! But yu're 100% right! Every problem is a learning opportunity and only makes you a better grower in the long run! Good luck battling your mite issue. What are you planning to do?

Also...if you don't have ready access to the cal/mag, you can pick up Epsom Salts at your grocery store or pharmacy. It is 100% Magneseum Sulphate. Make sure you get the kind with no additives. They make a lot of foot-soaking products with Epsom Salts that you don't want. Just get the pure deal and it'll work fine. It's a very cheap fix! Dissolve 2 tsp in some luke warm water, then add that to a gallon of water and water in. Be sure to pH to 6.5 You can also apply it as a foliar feed. You might even consider doing both! I think they need it.

What I ended up doing is cutting down my little one. The entire plant was maybe 6-7 inches long so it wasn't a total loss. If it spreads to my other plants ill make a lady bug home out if a cloning tray with food and water for them so the lady bugs don't die off in a couple days. I need to start on a new batch of ladies. Off hand does anyone know some strains that are shorter in length and produce more flowers that would be more suited for indoor grows? I'm going to try ken Dogs approach to a single bucket RDWC with a net. I'm test out the different ways to grow to see which one I like best. I have 2 5 gallon buckets with the net tops, hydroton, and sensi bloom veg and grow nutrients parts 1&2 with h2o2. The buckets are all black.
