Azatrol During Flower ? Pyrethrum During Flower ?

I've had spider mite problems in the past and this round I vow to annialate all spider mites and focus all of my attention to never have them. So far everything is good and I just started my first week of flower and I want to continue being proactive and at least spray my plants once a week. I've been told to not use pyrethrum because it cause the buds to mature to early. But I was also told that azatrol can be used during flower without an adverse effect to my plant. I just want to get another opinion on Azatrol. I am also using Zero Tolerance, but I want to also use it with another spray insecticide. I also think that Zero Tolerance works but is not as strong as other insecticides. Which is why I want to combine it with another insecticide.

Do you really wanna smoke that?
You can also jack up the temp and humidity for ten days or so and they'll leave on thier own.

just spray around them... indoors or outdoors? if its indoors I would just spray everywhere around the grow room, around doors etc... but not on the plant, as a repellent if you do not have spider mites currently on your plants. I did just spray my flowering plants but with a natural soap based water spray.

Skroatz, I think I will spray everywhere except the plants. But I will keep spraying the Zero Tolerance. Thanks for the input. I used to spray everything before, but for some reason I didn't think about that this time around. The wholeroom is going to get it tomorrow.

I was having problem with whiteflies and fungus gnats. I got some Azamax and just sprayed my plants without bud which were also in the flower tent and I sprayed the walls and floors and I have not seen a bug since. I have been spraying my veg tent the same way every 2 weeks too. I also sprayed the top layer of soil because of the gnats. I have been bug free since and I used a more diluted solution than the bottle recommended. Good luck cus bugs suck.

Literally. lol

Thanks Hempstead, I haven't had any gnat problems since I started using coco. I would have gnats when I used soil. I going to try and use Azatrol every now and then as well as Zero Tolerance at least weekly. I just don't want any spider mites on my plants. My last grow they really did a number one one plant and I was always battling them. This time around I'm doing good so far, so I just trying to be proactive.

I wish more people would tell new growers about the dangers of spider mites etc... It is really something most people don't think about until it happens to them... I am now spraying down my room regularly. Hope you stay bug free. Happy growing.
