Did I miss your advice earlier? Wasnt trying to shout over anyone.
I saw your comment on flora nova and drippers. I dont actually know what dirtbag ended up using. And I have no experience with them.
750 tops going in, or 750 plus whatever your water is? I've always wondered this.Lol that's one of the classic issues with blueberry. It's very sensitive to overfeeding but often just appears underfed naturally with the red stems and often strange leaf mutations.
I'm going to keep ppm around 700-750 tops for these ladies.
750 tops going in, or 750 plus whatever your water is? I've always wondered this.
For instance where I'm at in flower Mega Crop recommends 30 grams and states 30 grams should equal 835 ppm's on the 500 scale.
My water is 200 ppm and after I add 30 grams to it, my ppm's are 750. Makes me wonder if I'm truly feeding what I should be or if I need to up the grams to the true recommended ppm's before water. They've been hungry and I'm still trying to sort this out without over feeding. That would literally put me at 1035 ppm with what's in the tap water. I hope my situation and question makes sense.
Yeah, I haven’t tried it yet. It’s only been 750 total so far. It’s something that’s been on my mind though. That’s why I thought to ask first.I usually run about 800 with RO, but I'm going to run less for the Bberry. That's with no Calmag, but I am starting to add a bit of well water to buffer my water to 150ppm to stabilize my ph rather than using silica quite as much. Still trying to stay below 850 total. 1000 is much too hot, if that's not burning them I'd suspect something is causing uptake issue.
It’s not spider mites. I promise you that.Also, FWIW im still soliciting input from any of you other seasoned gardeners out there reading this on what could be going on here. I'll be honest this is new to me. I really thought it was spider mites.
Seriously, any opinions welcome.

Is your humidity really high?
Appreciate the tips, I'm in Canada though and cant get azamax or green cleaner. Closest thing I can get is neem oil but its incompatible with all the sulphur I've been burning. I'll look into the AI of green cleaner and see if I can replicate it though.
Also wish I had got this advice earlier, I actually flipped the day before I noticed the spots because the room is getting crowded, so I'm doing what i can in the stretch window. Not ideal but I'm not sure how they would take to going back under 18/6 now that it's been in flower for 3 days. Any advice in that regard? Would you revert to veg after 3 days of 12/12?

I i
I include my water PPM's in my end total, my water is 260ppm, so I take that into consideration when I mix may nuits. @Dirtbag it my be the flush that's giving you cal and mag defs at the same time, masked by other defs from the flush. Colour of the marks on the leaves seem wrong for bugs.
Very Green and thriving. Very nice.Well if it ain't always something... I'm getting a little concerned I could have spider mites at the moment based on some odd leaf spotting I'm seeing. I've been burning sulphur for 4 hrs per night for the past 3 days and plan to burn for a few more days. Also applied safers end-all, let off a konk 418 pyrethrin bomb and plan to spray botanigard next. after that rosemary oil and habanero spray lol. Pulling out all the stops to try and stop this in its tracks.
On a positive note it's not widespread, and I havent been able to find a single mite in hours of scoping. Also no webbing visible. So fingers crossed.
Its looking like a jungle in there...

Well I hate to say it, but this is going to be a tear down and restart. Damage and burned leaves went berserk overnight.
I'm 90% sure I burned them with pyrethrin trying to kill what I thought was spider mites, but was likely something else anyway.... My own stupid fault. And never would have happened if I had acces to a proper miticide... oh well. Managed to take about 30 cuttings, hopefully they make it because I would really hate to lose these strains.
Sorry to hear that bud.
That is why you never treat on assumption. In the future if you see what you think is mite damage you will %100 see them with your naked eye under the leaves that look effected.Well I hate to say it, but this is going to be a tear down and restart. Damage and burned leaves went berserk overnight.

I really don’t think the pyrethrum burnt them though. I popped those cans in 5x5 tents all it did was give me really shiney leaves.
If in panic mode and you feel you have to take action use alcohol/water with soap or buy some green cleaner.
I will tell you this as well, never once did I ever get a mite with introducing them from clones from someone else garden.
I agree I shouldnt have sprayed. And I honestly knew that.. but what can I say. I tripped myself out by stupidly bringing in outdoor plants to dry and one thing led to the other. And I have to say early on the damage really did look like mite damage.
But after spraying Konk the leaves have a shimmery appearance, not shiny, but more sparkly like its covered in fiberglass or something. The leaves with the most shimmer have the most damage. Strong correlation, but who knows.
I'm honestly not that bothered, this crop got off on the wrong foot right from the start.
