Somebody help
Spider mite issues have gone out of hand...been battling organiclly but seems to be to no avail...I have one group that is 1-2 weeks away; another group that has 3-4 weeks; and another that has 4-5weeks left before harvest...and an infestation has exploded...what can be done to save me? I have already removed 1 that was covered and smothered... I have used a neem/insecticide spray regularly..I also have used a mix of 90% alcohol and water misted on them to aid in killing some( which does work some) I have even used alcohol wipes to remove mites from leaves( takes forever) I have been battling them for a minute now ..Thought i had em beat( recently purchased the lady bugs as a precautionary measure( almost had the problem solved...or thought i did) ..I also have placed ladybugs in the rooms aswell... but within a 2 day time I came back to find an explosion of biblical proportions...but the infestation is to large and I need to do something before everything is to far gone. Any suggestions could be helpful. Is it to late in the cycle for the pest strips? I really dont want to start over at this point. Please Help
