On the spidermite thing. First you need to know your enemy. Get a loop or magnafier and see if they are red spidermites or two spotted spidermite.

I don't know what soap you got but it won't kill mites. Oh safers is good on some things but not this.

All spidermites are bad but the two spotted ones come straight from hell and it takes alot to send them back.

If you can get a doctor dooms bomb then get it right now. No time to waste or any total release pyrithrum bomb but make sure it doesn't have anything else in it. You could keep bombing every 7 days but that's alot of money.

Neem oil is good but messy but it has the stuff.
Well AZAMAX is a concentrate of neem oil. They should have it at your hydro store. It is put out by general hydroponics. Cheap at 20 buck for a small bottle but will last many many sprays in a small room.

Now what you have to do is break the life cycle of the spidermite. NOTHING KILLS EGGS. Eggs hatch in 5 to 7 days and longer if cool.

Newborns are pregnant and lay eggs in 14 days. So if you kill them now and more hatch tomarrow you have 14 days to kill them before they lay eggs but you don't want to take any chances so 7 to 10 days kill again.

If you do this 3 times they should be gone BUT 5 times and you can sleep better. LOL


DO NOT UNDER ESTIMATE THE SPIDERMITE'S WILL TO LIVE or thier hunger for your crop. The eggs can winter over in soil so we are kind of safe with hydro just keep things clean and don't re-use rockwool or starter cubes.

AZAMAX. I can not say enough about this stuff. I went through a couple hundred bucks in doctor dooms. It wiped out thrips and red spidermites but the two spotted mites just sucked it up like crack. Wanting more.
The azamax is many things as well as an anti-feedant.

Check it out and stop the problem for 20 bucks.
