    Spider mites

    I've been using this "Zero Tolerance" stuff from Ed that has seemed to help me with some small patches of powdery mildew. It smells like a strong mixture of concentrated cinnamon and rosemary. Not that bad of a smell really.

    Ed Rosenthal's Zero Tolerance Natural Garden Solutions

    I later found a few spider mites and it seems to knock them back pretty well also. The most important part IMO is to use something organic/natural as possible. After all you will be ingesting it eventually.

    Spider mites

    Greetings fellows.I live in Greece and I m a victim of spider mites as well.I had no idea those little mofos exist before I experiment with plants on my own.
    My beautiful little Lowryder Babies have just sprout the little female indication hair under their leaves.However one warm morning i seen on them some tiny black monsters on it.I didn't notice that little white dots on the leaves earlier damn it.Anyway I got a ready to use medication for my plants with pyrethrum and butoxide piperonyl and some m.g.k. inside but after a lot of reading it's not yet clear to me (as I m new into this)

    1)What's the spraying frequency arrangement I should use?
    2)Should I do it when lights go out or not?
    3)I once drown a whole nest of ants because they ate my radish I assure you i m gonna bake those spider mites :gunfighter2:.They not gonna get stoned on my plant i tell you
    4)How long has it been since you relaxed with a spliff at your backyard under the starlit sky feeling noon's breeze with a laptop posting to cannabis dot com?

    Thank you.

    Spider mites

    Have to ask.... I am nearing the end of my bloom cycle and I just noticed the mites. I know where they came from and there are not that many. I seem to be sold on this no pest strip. My air is contained pretty well so I think it should work well for me. If anyone can tell me a reason not to do this tonight please do.

    Spider mites

    I've heard that the "no pest strips" are very effective. I do however, question the contamination factor to the plants. I would not want to use them during the bloom cycle.

    I just harvested a week early last weekend because of some spider mites. I got really lucky, because I found a bunch of unhatched eggs that would have probably taken over the crop had I waited. I went over every millimeter (with a magnifying glass) of the buds to make sure there were none inside. Found only a few, but the mites for the most part tend to stay on the leaves. (in my experience)

    No pest strips are not the same as the yellow sticky pads, which will do nothing except help prevent them from coming in, assuming you know where that is. And as I mentioned many times before, the strips are not safe. That is why they work so well. Do not use during the last 2 or 3 weeks of flowering.

    Spider mites

    Thanks, I try. Sometimes.

    Sorry to hear about your infestation. Get on it quick. They spread sooo fast. In one of my posts I mention burning your clothes and bathing in neem oil or hydrochloric acid before coming into your house after visiting an infested house. I was not kidding.

    Please let us know how the strips worked out for you. Just remember to use as little ventilation as possible for the 4 or 5 days or so that you will need to break the growth cycle. You don't have to turn it completely off, just down if possible and off at night. I don't know your ventilation needs, but it would even be worth it to use less light for a few days if you have huge fans for the heat from the lights or something.

    The strips did not work for me at all. I am going to give it another 24 hours and then i am going to spray.
