Spider Mites
About the 4th week of veg, and I've recently had an explosion of spidermites. This happens all the time from what I've been reading, and I'm not panicking..... Instead I'm planning a strike against them. I've been engaged in some sort of mite warfare since about two weeks after the seedlings sprouted( yes, I'm growing seedlings indoors). My budget hasn't allowed me to spend $10-$15 a piece on clones from the clubs so I grew some of my orange crush, purple trainwreck, and grape ape seeds. I plan on taking clones from them later.
Back to the issue of spidermites. I've been keeping them in check with almost daily water spraying, and once to twice weekly rubbing alcohol/cool water 50:50 spraying. Latelyin the past few days they've really upped their game. I went out today and bought a can of chewing tobacco and some bug bombs. I have a real urge to get rid of these mites quickly, and I'm wondering if I should just bomb them then spray weekly( or however often) with the nicotine chew spray, or if there is another option. Please keep in mind that I plan on doing a full 8 weeks of flowering, and I'm very good about keeping my leaves/ room clean. Also keep in mind that I have an extremely tight budget(think like $30 max, and I mean MAX).
Pretty much I just want to know if we are go for launch, or what?stormin94 Reviewed by stormin94 on . Spider Mites About the 4th week of veg, and I've recently had an explosion of spidermites.
