Growmaster J Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Here are some pics of a few of my outdoor plants that are getting fucked up. There in the same spot as last year just vegging out until I transfer them into Growbags or Smartpots. Never had this problem last year, especially within 48 hrs of going out. I'm obviously going to spray them just was wondering what might be responsible for this kind of damage when looking for a spray..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexbiologo Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 If there are no bugs on the leaves it has to be something that feeds and leaves. I would guess something in the gasteropoda famaly (snails and allies) its pretty green where your growing so It wouldn´t be a surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeu9 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 By the advanced look of it, seems like red spider mites must have done it??? Only saw what they are capable of at a early stage, but it seems the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maffro Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 This year has been so wet i bet everyone is getting battered by the insect army. Ive got the same marks on most of my outdoors too, ive had some thing burrow into my best ams plant too its living in the stem ! Something has also been chopping off branches ! some kind of wasp the dude in the garden centre said - ive brought someultimate bug killer today as its so bad.i think a page about outdoor pests would be good - like the nutrien difficiency one - which is ace.Ill get some pics today and try to start one ;later - good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest superbluehaze Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 I am with Romeu on this one - I think spider mites.Hold a leaf up to the light and if it has a range of little dots on it, then it is spider mites.take care,john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexbiologo Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Wouldn´t the spider mites still be in the plant if it was them? I´ve never seen such damage from spider mites (brown leaf) does it get that bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeu9 Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Alex, leaves atacked by red spider mites and receiving less light then other leaves turns into that sometimes, but as I said it before, I only saw it at early stages, then I terminated them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uid Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Romeu is right on this one, I have the same spots on my plant and i saw the red spider mite sitting on the top of the bud, there was only 2 of them so i don't have such a big problem as gromaster. Do you guys know any organic spray solution that I can mix to get rid of them? or the usual spider mite spray will do just fine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
