You no wanna smoke dat kine.
The strips are a vapor that leave no residue.
'bout level with the crown. Start it spinning and zip up the tent.
Outdoors, you can hang a strip from da bottom of a beeg garbage can.
Invert it over da plant at night and take it off in da morning.
Though, I nevah need outdoors.
If you no use poison, there are critters that eat spidermites.
And a really healthy plant seldom gets infested in the first place.
So the best medicine is prevention, yah?
And here's a tip that will save you much grief.
Buy, or borrow some Kirkland dryer sheets.
Tear then half way through and lay them flat on the soil around the stalk.
They will repel Fungus Gnats, whitefly, and flying root aphids.
That breaks their life cycle.
No flies, no eggs,
No eggs, no larva.
No larva, no damage.
For carry-on aphids.
A one inch band of tanglefoot at the base of the stalk stops the rancher ants from bringing them.
I put masking tape around my DWC buckets for that purpose.
(When I put it on the plants, it gets in my hair, very sticky stuff!)
Then use the idle buckets as plant stands by turning them upside down and puttin potted seedlings on them.
Stop the ants, stop the aphids.
Ya know, with that few plants, you can kill the mites and their eggs by hand.
Kinda more satisfying that way.
Aloha,
Weeze
