Bug Infestattion----HELP!!

Hi guys, I tried to ready the stickies and the guides, but could not quickly find out about my bug problem.

I have hundreds of tiny little white dots on my leaves. I can't go and tend to them because it is still broad daylight (I'm an outdoor guerilla grower), so I am freaking out. I can barely see it from my property, but no doubt, the leaves are completely white-speckled

We just had a bunch of humidity and rain too. These plants are not flowering yet, but I just hope they make it to that stage! I will go down the hill tonight to snip some leaves and post pics on here, but in the meantime, I am looking for some causes.

Also, the temps dropped way down and we'll be in the low 40's F. tonight-will that help?

Thanks y'all

Here are pics....looks like spider mites, right? It's going to get cold....will that help?

I have a problem with fungas nats. I put sticky traps everwhere but they seem to keep getting worse.

Might slow them down but I doubt it will actually do much. Get some natural oil based pest killer. Even olive oil works if you apply and spray off your plants a few times.

Thanks. Hey, I tried to find neem oil at Home Depot, Lowes, and Ace.....they don't seem to carry it. I need something ASAP-as in not mail order.

Any ideas? I have another girl that's flowering and that plant is also bitten.

Olive oil can be used in emergencies if you are into it. Basically any oil that won't kill your plants will drown the bugs so... I have used it to treat aphids and such in a few gardens.

I generally apply to heavily infested and reapply in about three days until I notice the infestation is more or less gone.

I use my fingers or a brush directly in a jar.

If the plants are in veg u can boil some tobbaco from 2 cigs in somewater, strain,cool and add to a gallon of water.
Turn plant upside down and spray well.
The need to be in veg cause its all nitrogen.
This will kill all buga

Hey guys, thanks for the help. I went out and bought this at Home Depot today because the last 2 plants (veg) are completely infested. I sprayed the entire plants, even the underside of the leaves. Only time will tell now....

Horticultural oil... sell at hydro stores. Best shit like 98% effective. Or you could take the entire plant in the shower and holding it gently you could wash the leaves off. I had to do this when some clones got infected by a few mothers who were also infected. worked at about 85% effective first go but I did it once more a few days later. PERFECT! If its spider mites they cant hod on to the plant in the water so BAM! Good luck man!

I've had an aphid infestation for weeks, and I've been using neem oil with dish soap and fresh pulverized red chillis, and I STILL can not get rid of them.
They don't seem to hurt the plants BUT THEY SHIT EVERYWHERE!

When using oil pesticides you should make a bunch of different concentrations to see what is the strongest you can use on the plant without burning the shit out of it. Then use that strength to nuke the bugs.

I use phyta gaurd at a pretty intense ratio compared to what is listed.
