Isomers of what?

Do you even know what an isomer is?

Folks, go check his referance...

'Nuff said.

isomers are called by some hydrocarbons. Simple hydrocarbons such as methane contain about 7 carbons where isomers have above 28 carbons. 31 carbons is the highest or most stable regarding hydrocarbons.

I am only looking to tell people what works. Dont want to fight my friend you obviously got some facts in your head. Knowledge is always appreciated.

o the half lifes of isomers is shorter then say methane as they still have there balance.

o the half lifes of isomers is shorter then say methane as they still have there balance. This is why they are not carcinogens

rhizome - I am very interested in your alkali comment if you dont mind my friend. I mentioned this as I tryed dunks a couple months back when I had some mites on non cannabis plants in my bed room. They are gone now or so it seems. I would love to learn if you are willing to teach. My experience with humidity is not as you say though it is only my experience.

Got to sleep now though perhaps we can continue this discussion at a later time. Enjoy the site.

maybe what I thought were mites were really crabs and they liked the plants better as I may smell?

Spider mites DO NOT breed in the media. You've never noticed all the eggs all over the underside of the leaves? Neeming the media is useless against mites. Ya might as well go and neem your television.

Spider mites breed SLOWER in higher humidity- running a dehumidifier just makes it worse.

DE on your media IS NOT effective against spider mites, as they will never touch it.

I'd feel comfy spraying pyrethroids @ 5 weeks. If you're worried about mold, grab a bottle of Serenade or other organic anti-fungal from your local.

Neem is fairly effective, when sprayed ON THE UNDERSIDE OF THE LEAF.

Beneficials are great, but it's kinda late in the cycle to start em.

A methiocarb fogger will do it, but you're getting close to harvest- I hate smoking that shit.

Myself, I like a shot of abamectin as they move into flower- but that point's past.

Many swear by " No Pest Strips" which contain dichlorvos- never tried em myself.

Dropping your temps and raising RH will slow em down, maybe enough to get the infested stuff harvested.

Mandala- Nothing personal, but a lot of what you're saying is just wrong. I don't know how else to put it.

I should throw some No Pest Strips in there for sure, good call. I have heard decent things about em for sure. As for harvesting them way early, I don't think they are to the point where they need to be chopped immediately.. but at what risk do you leave the plants in there... at what point do you just say fuck it and chop and know the others wont be subjected to the mites, though it really seems the spreading has been pretty damn small so far.

I am thinking I'll drop a Pyrethrum bomb in there, it worked pretty effectively last time, as alot were infected prior and it cleared most of it up until a few days ago. Keep y'all posted.
