i recently had a bad spider mite problem. i closed the room for about 4 months.i cleaned the room with hyd prox. spray. i've started the room again and have been growing stage for about 3months. i was in the room today and noticed a big ol white bodied spider(size of a quarter) roaming in the plant. i don't have any web, didn't notice any of the mites on fan leaves(been carefully looking every day for those bastards for the last 3 mos). just wondering if it is a spider mite or are spidermites just small and this one just being a common house spider.
thanks.

spider mites are almost too small to be seen with the naked eye ... you evidently spied a harmless house spider (possibly got 'albinoed' as a result of your spraying) ... I hang a No-Pest Strip in the same room, have never had bugs ... :smokin:
