Closed Growing Environment Pest Control
I am currently flowering. My spider mites are out of control. Am I crazy thinking that 10,000 ppm co2 will kill my mites? If I am indeed not crazy, what would be the best way of administering the dose? A sealed room with a tank system that is digitally metered and administered? Thanks.

Not gonna kill them that way. Not sure how bad your problem is, or how advanced. Prevention is the best, too late now.
Neem will prevent the eggs from hatching. Pyrthrens will kill them, but has to have time to degrade before you can consume. Cold is bad for mites. Soapy water I hear, but most soaps have P in them so be very careful.
I forget the lifespan of the adults, but it is short. Get past that and the Neem should control all of it.....spray the leaf bottoms and the stalks well.
If you already have webs, just burn the plant. Not good for anything. Read the other threads about mites to learn how to eliminate and then use control measures over reactive measures.
