Haven't grown in a long time

[Mwood1087]

Hey so I havnt grown in about 15 years. Growing for my wife for recreational use. Bought an Afghani Grapefruit clone from a local clone store here in Denver. Everything was good up until flowering. Transplanted a week prior to switching to 12/12, hit it with nutes at the first sign of flowering and it's been downhill ever since. Majority if not all hairs have turned brown, leaves are curling as if I overwatered. Let it sit for a week without water, gave it straight water and the leaves have gotten worse again. I figured I prolly have very saturated soil at the bottom of the pot and removed the plant from the pot to find pretty much dry medium. I think at this point its nute burn? I've never seen this and again havnt grown in years. It should be known I've been using foxfarm nutes ph at 6.5 the entire time. Pictures to follow.

Hi Mwood, they look like they were very nic. What soil did you put them in?

That claw look is most likely from a Nitrogen toxicity in flower. Flush with water cut back on what ever nutes that have high nitrogen.

You have russet mites your grow is done destroy them and clean start over good luck.

I've been going off the foxfarm schedule and cut almost all nitrogen and pumped it with phos

Pretty much no recovering? Even with miticide?

 

[BeanTownFan420]

They are infested with a growers worst nightmare.

 

[Mwood1087]

Well fuck haha.. I googled them and yah I can see the spotting on the leaves.. any idea how they could have ended up in there? Any precautions to use for my next clone?

 

[BeanTownFan420]

If you cut clone from those plants they may be infected and junk.

 

[Mwood1087]

I'm just gonna bag it and tag it haha.. hitting up the clone store now to see what they have.. do you suggest cleaning with a diluted bleach mix?

 

[BeanTownFan420]

clean for sure and vaccum

 

[BeanTownFan420]

bleach make sure rinse good after

It sucks to have to start over this far along in the grow-
I feel for ya,I just found out my 2 best plants were males-
better than disease I guess,but not much!
Good luck on the next go-round!

I cleaned everything good.. hit it with Clorox wipes then water then isopropyl.. the clone store just said to spray everything down with isopropyl.. got a new clone.. gonna run with green crack. Let's see how this one goes haha

Hey @Mwood1087 ...first welcome to the forum and second DO NOT KILL THOSE GIRLS!!!!....Since you're in CO a shop should have Nematodes...they're a beneficial parasite that will kill those mites and more...all natural...it will do it in a week or less!!!!
EDIT: It will kill anything that has a larvae type egg
