HELP!!!! Ever tried Chiller Bud to kill fn mites?
I have two girls that were close to finishing (10.5 wks) when to my f'ed up suprise i saw spider mites. I figured i'd better take all the bud before it got too ruined. If i refriging the bud after trimming will the cold kill the mites. Are they're able to survive the cold (38deg) of a refrig? Will it kill the fuckers or will they just go to sleep until i take the bud out?
Spraying is not an option.seldomBLUE Reviewed by seldomBLUE on . HELP!!!! Ever tried Chiller Bud to kill fn mites?

Summary The effect of temperatures below 0° C on different stages of the two-spotted spider mite, and in particular on active adult females, has been investigated.
Survival of active females at-5° was higher at approximately 100% relative humidity than at a lower degree of humidity. Higher rates of survival were also caused by acclimation of active females and larvae for one day at +5° before storage at-15°. No differences in cold-hardiness were found in active females from an organophosphorous resistant strain and a susceptible strain, and the ability to survive depended on the time-temperature exposures (see Fig. 3).
Eggs were killed very rapidly at-15° C, while larvae survived longer exposures than active females. Compared at the LT50 level females in diapause survived three times the exposure endured by acclimated active females.
Supercooling points measured at a rate of cooling of 2° C per minute were highest in diapausing females and lowest in eggs. Acclimation had no effect on the supercooling points of active females. All stages were killed by freezing. It seems likely that the difference in survival between acclimated and not acclimated active females at-15° is caused by different ability to live in a supercooled state.

You could have filled the room with C02 and killed them all untill harvest. With spidermites you must brake the life cycle. You could of used pyrithium bomb. They dissapate in about 48 hours and are safe.
You can't kill the eggs and a newborn has to be 2 weeks old to start laying eggs. So kill them once a week for three weeks and the eggs are gone.
Oh my bro had them bad and gave them to me in clones. I used the bombs and never had them again. He smoked the hell out of them and is still alive.
