"no bandaid fix will kill spider mite you have to get some type of chemical to kill them"

Flower and water works, got to get them early tho

It’s the eggs they leave behind that’s the kicker the eco oil kill them.

Ya need to spray a few times,

Sounds like work mate no need to do any of that with the eco oil .

I’ve used white oil in the past did nothing for me apart from make all the leaves shiny.

I ended up taking all my infected plants outside and blasting the fuck out of them with the garden hose, scrubbed the tents with iso spray, let it dry out then a couple insect bombs.

I haven’t seen any mites this grow cop that ya little fuckers.

This is more than a white oil it’s if you look at the label you will see what it’s has used twice in veg stage it’s mint . Anyway you guys go with what you use I’ll keep SM free all the time .

 

[Pedro de pacas]

Haven't had spider mites for years, no need to spray anything unless they roll up

Thought an old tnuc like yaself would be using the old fashioned ways of doing shit lol lol

Pretty sure Eco oil does not kiil spider mite eggs and the little turds lay eggs about every 3 or 4 days.
This is the main reason they are so hard to get rid off.
They are tuff-little motherfuckers.Mature females lay up to 20 eggs per day and live 2 to 4 weeks.
They only take 4 to 5 days to reach maturity.
So as you can see they can be difficult to eliminate.
Especially if they get a hold in the more advanced stages of cannabis growth.
Have noticed in cooler conditions in doors they are not so active.
So if you can reduce your heat somewhat that is a good starting point.

There are also particular strains of cannabis that they prefer.
Have seen them on one type while others in same room none.
So they must know the best turps.
Bush around my area is full of mites .
Beware of bringing plants in and out of house.
Also watch out gardening out door then going straight to indoor garden
You can bring them in on clothing shoes etc. They are quite common.️

Always Change clothes after out door gardening when you come indoors .
It's that easy for them to get in when you have a healthy population of mites outside!️

Well for 12 bucks you could of saved your crop mate its totally up to you . I’m a qualified 4 th year horticulturalist have been growing weed for 45 years now no bandaid fix will kill spider mite you have to get some type of chemical to kill them . Regards Od . Are you in tassie like me T ?

Not tassy, just like the tiger and one of those who wish it was still around.

By the time I figured out what and why the yellowing it was too late. I would rather not use any form of pesticide but I guess in some cases it is needed. What do you use and how long does it stay in the plants system?

I have learnt a valuable lesson now and will now take a lot of care. I also found out that the little suckers can blow a web out and grab what ever goes past. (probably my cat that loves to lay in the veg patch! They also hibernate in the colder months by finding cracks in the house/shed wall etc. I have sprayed the tent with neem, and scrubbed it, added a small heater to dry out then I will hit it again in a few days. My thought is the neem will kill the adults and the heat will hatch the eggs and so on. Might just sell the tent lol.
I have used a neem oil/bi carb mix and have been spraying the seedling and as yet no sign. Neem for the bugs and bi card helps fungus.

I had three strains in my tent and they absolutely demolished the Bubba Kush, munged out a fair bit on the Northern, and never went near the strain I have bred so that is a plus. I also noticed that the seeds on the plants were black inside and some completely empty! Would that have been the mites or the fungus rotting them?

The next generation!
