Spider Mites
Prevention over eliminating an infestation. Mucho important.
You, have a problem. You must get them killed. They lay eggs on the leaves and it is perpetual. Use some Shell no pest strips in the room...or one if it is small room.
Meanwhile, get some Neem oil and mix about a tablespoon or two in a quart and spray on the bottoms of the leaves for a few days. Overdoing this will clog the stoma, so not too much.
Somewhere along the way, clean the hell outta the grow room, bleach in the water. Spray with Sevin in the corners, air intakes, and around the exterior of the grow room. It should take about 2 weeks to kill them all off, as the eggs will hatch and keep things going. The above breaks that cycle.
read the post in my signature.WashougalWonder Reviewed by WashougalWonder on . 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 Rating: 5
