Mite Damage....Will the leaves regenerate?

[jackogpush]

Simple question for those of you who have dealt with mites. This is my first battle . Had some mites in about 30% of my grow. No webbing or anything. But a good amount of leaf spotting. Pretty sure I have killed them but im just wondering if all the damaged leaves will begin to go back to normal. This is week 4 of flower. Thanks

No, they will stay "hole filled". I personally had them destroy my previous grow.

Remove all leaves that are destroyed >50% and yellowing leaves. When they have either of those two characteristics, they will do more damage than good, as they are shading healthyer leaves below, and may hold mite eggs.

Dont make the mistake of thinking you have dealt with the mites. Continue to treat the plants as close to harvest as you can. After the grow, do yourself a favor and disinfect your room, scissors and everything else that could come in contact with future plants.

Hope this helped.

the holes are perfect places for disease to set in, so remove the damaged ones

Yep removed the damaged leaves as they won't regenerate and they still could have mite eggs on them, Good Luck destroying those mite bastards

thanks for the great responses. I know its a newb question and i could have probably found the answer if I searched for hour or so. Much easier to just ask and recieve. Best board out there by far.
