Spider mites
here's my 2 cents:
i've been battling spider mites for over a year now and have spent big bucks on neem and predatory mites. i must have some badass mites because we never could seem to get rid of them.
this time i hit the clones from said plants daily with bug be gone once they rooted in. after they got about a foot tall and looked strong i mixed a 5 gallon bucket of floramite, cut paper plates to hold the dirt in the pots, and inverted and dipped the entire plants in the floramite solution. a couple more weeks of veg and the i'll kick the lights back. i'm not expecting to see spider mites again although i might be proactive and dump a couple predatory colonies on this batch. floramite is cool in that it doesn't kill your beneficial mites.
p.s. i found someone selling individual ounces of floramite on a popular auction site......$25 ounce beats the hell out of a $300 quart and this stuff goes a long way...1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon per gallon.
