    well... as long as they arent spindermites you should be okay. You said 2-3mm long and that is longer than what i know any spidermite to be. I take it you are growing outside, and yes, spiders will be beneficial. Just keep an eye on your plants over the next few days. If you really wanna kill some pests, get a praying mantis. Protection, and a badass show as it bites the head off of any poor bug that gets too close!

    im pretty sure they arent spidermites, after having previous plants infected with them. and by the way im growing indoors. i was going to get rid of the spiders but after seeing a decrease in the fungus gnats that use to occupy my plants it lead me to beleive that the spider were killing them. so as long as they dont harm my plant i guess ill let them live. any way thanks for replying DirtyLinus i think i might look into getting a praying matis, hopefully i doesnt find a mate and ends up infesting my grow room with them

    This is for teazintoo
    Garlic/Pepper Tea

    Ingredients: 2 bulbs garlic, 2 hot peppers, blender 1/2 full of water. Mix in blender. Strain solids and add to one gallon of water to make a concentrate. Use 1/4 cup of concentrate and two tablespoons of Horticultural Molasses per gallon of water for foliar applications that act as an effective insect repellent for your plants. Do not use on insect pollinated vegetable plants.

    Mantids are so cool. I'd be thrilled if they infested my indoor grow op! I bet they would even attack my fat bulldog who likes to eat pot plants!

    Spiders are good for your grow, they're predatory so they will protect your plants pretty well. Different spiders eat different insects. Still give me the willys though!
