It's like a steady stream of growing issues, we conqueror one and another pops up. This is why many give up. one grow can work great but this perpetual growing is another animal all together. I may have to change my grow location if I can't get rid of the mites, I was reluctant to read about your septoria issue in fear of picking it up just reading about it. lolI'm also considering a sulfur burn, but I want to use the copper spray first
In the meantime I'm going to be searching what I did years ago, I recall I sprayed copper three times a certain number of days apart
After that I burn copper two or three times, 3 days apart and I haven't had septoria since, and it's been quite a few years
The only other thing that I can see that this could be is a bacterial rather than fungal disease, regardless the treatment is the same
It reminds me of a cartoon I saw where a frustrated old guy ends up burning down his house to get rid of a harassing mouse. If things keep going sideways I could see me getting violent in my grow room lol. Good luck with this new / old issue at least with a site like this we can discus and come up with alternatives to my drastic measures. lol i've smoke lots already todayIt's like a steady stream of growing issues, we conqueror one and another pops up.

I like to stay ignorant of potential problems until they occur. Growing is tough enough with all that's involved but to add more stress worrying about gangrene or septoria or another plant eater attacking my babies is just too much for my old brain to handle.lol
The reason I say I'm 0 & 2 vs spider mites is because the first time I chopped and burned all plants, cleaned, sprayed bleached, bug bombs & sealed the room all summer thinking they would surely all perishIt reminds me of a cartoon I saw where a frustrated old guy ends up burning down his house to get rid of a harassing mouse.

I just blasted all of my vegging plants & entire room with Dr.Bronners & Rosemary essential oils. 1 gallon of it in my pressure washer and gave them a good blast. Then I let them sit for a few minutes and drip while I washed out my washer then blasted them again with cold water. If I see any more of them I'll do the same thing. I'll keep their numbers down even if I don't get them all. My grow room layout not to scale and very tight spacesThe reason I say I'm 0 & 2 vs spider mites is because the first time I chopped and burned all plants, cleaned, sprayed bleached, bug bombs & sealed the room all summer thinking they would surely all perish
Started seeds maybe 3-4 months later and as soon as the plants started to grow they were infested again;and so ended my growing in the mid 90's
This was before a million different products became easily available and before the internet, I don't know how battling the Borg would go now, and I'm not trying to find out!
Jamie good to see you back! hope you're well? I've been looking at homes up in Maine, I'm looking to stay on the electric grid but at the same time I'm looking for some acreage, any areas you'd recommend?I use banking soda with a dash of dish soap. Works go for me.
I know that wasn't directed at me but I've been all through Maine except for the north east corner and I think you can find what your looking for everywhere in Maine north and south of the I 95. If It was myself looking I like south of I 95 near the Bay of Fundy below Bangor. Although the weather in all of Maine can get hit hard by winter the closer to the ocean you get the warmer it gets- 10 - 20c That North east gets hit real hard with - 30 -35 f or c it doesn't matter at that point, makes me cold just thinking about it.Jamie good to see you back! hope you're well?

I've only been deep in Maine once a very long time ago, spent a month way up north camping one weekendall my other visits were to the shore
"does this road go to Bar Harbor?"
sometimes I don't think people realize how big Maine really is! I've been searching the coastal areas first, always wanted to live "down east" but it's not an obsessionI know that wasn't directed at me but I've been all through Maine except for the north east corner and I think you can find what your looking for everywhere in Maine north and south of the I 95.

I've always wanted to live within an hour or 2 of a major airport. Our vacations south were too important to me to be out too far in the boonies. Now that we're not traveling any more that consideration no longer applies. I also need some conveniences close by, Groceries a restaurant or 2, Pizza delivery is nice once and a while. I've seen plenty of places that are way out there on lonely dirt roads and I get the Dueling Banjo's playing in my head. Not for me man I need some society around me.High speed internet is also a high priority to me now. I'm not that old I still needs me some porn once and a while.sometimes I don't think people realize how big Maine really is!

"No, this road stays right here"
Looking better today!!Update: Plant looks better than ever probably that heavy feeding yesterday, or maybe the copper spray I don't know exactly what the hell is going on with this if I'm honest but I do think it's fungal
Nothing has spread, so I've only sprayed that one plant which I know is risky but I'm actually keeping a close eye on this for a change
I'll post up pictures if anything changes, thanks again for the help
Edit: to add the affected plant is from seed so it's not a weak drawn-out clone and doesn't appear to be a weak plant; this is a cutting from that affected mother, seems normal too

You have nice color on her, a very pretty plant, top it now, lol. I couldn't leave that top alone. I get antsy when I see single tops. ( I know I have a problem ) I guess it's an OCD issue with me but I can't help myself. I can't remember a plant that I didn't top at least once or twice.Update: Plant looks better than ever probably that heavy feeding yesterday, or maybe the copper spray I don't know exactly what the hell is going on with this if I'm honest but I do think it's fungal

Not me I'm from downtown but since I lived in New Hampshire I've realized I never want to be back in or around a city ever againI've always wanted to live within an hour or 2 of a major airport.

LOL it does need to be topped and that's not a new picture either so probably needs topping even more by nowYou have nice color on her, a very pretty plant, top it now, lol.

I don't have your issue but mine too look better after my heavy spraying with soap and water. After seeing the debris after washing my buds off it's obvious that my leaves and bud get covered in dust particles,hair and other shit. The washing not only cleaned the bugs off, the color is better and the plants just look healthier. I've read here numerous times spraying your plants is not necessary unless there is a problem with them. I'm thinking now a good washing off once or twice through their life maybe a good practice.
It is very nice up through there but there's snow on the ground into June in some areas. We've traveled up through there a number of times. We end up staying in Gorham. It's about as far as we can get from home in a days drive on our way up to Ottawa. Cold in the morning there even in July on the north side of Mt Washington. Very pretty rolling hills a bunch of century homes on old farms. I can see the attraction to the area.Not me I'm from downtown but since I lived in New Hampshire I've realized I never want to be back in or around a city ever again
New Hampshire is beautiful, and more than that life there is just so much different and dare I say better! And right now is the best time I've ever seen to leave the city
In addition to the coast I'm also looking at the white mountain range in Eastern Maine that abuts New Hampshire, either of those locations would be a dream home!
