Spider mites?

Just found a spider mite for the first time a couple minutes ago. Noticed the tiny yellow specs on the leaves. If u look at the back of thr llleaf with a microscope u can see the round ball shaped eggs. Looks like a pearl. It took Me a while to find a mite but at 40x magnification that fucker was plain as day

Condolences. Same boat. Let the war begin.

So I've been researching in fear of this day forever. I have a pretty big room and a decent size veg. I know a lot of solutions, but what's the method to squash this early, I'm talking going Hiroshima on their asses as step one. I have co2 but I think my room is too big and not sealed enuf to choke em out, plus it seems worse in my veg which is nit sealed at all.

Small enough to dunk? I'd have to think anything that guarantees complete coverage would give the best results compared to anything spraying based...

Well you can tell if you have spider mites also by rubbing your fingers on the bottom of your plants leaves. If your fingers look like they have a red color to them then you have live spider mites. I highly recommend floramite sc.It is made for spider mites. Its expensive but I bought 1 oz from ebay for 16.99. You dont need a lot so your $ goes a long way. It kills the live mites and it is suppose to stay on the plant for at least 21 days so when the mites hatch from their eggs they will die. You can use it in flowering but its best to stop the mites before you start flowering. I have had spider mites in the veggie stage before and sprayed them right before I switched the plants over to flower and I did not see a mite during the flowering cycle. Since you can't take pictures, then be sure to look up pictures for spider mites so your not diagnosing the wrong problem. Trust me you want to stop them from spreading before you see webs. Once the webs are showing then you have yourself a full blown infestation.

I feel like I caught them pretty early, I just randomly inspected some of my small ladies in veg who were showing minor spotting with a microscope. No question I have 2 spotted mites. I kept a clean room, never brought In outside plants but apparently no one is immune. Seriously my shit is near medical clean. I have concrete floors that I keep swept and vacuumed, and my grow is quite new. In my flower room I put MH bulbs to blow my ladies up a bit and was ready to flp the switch until this hiccup. I've inspected my plants in flower and none of the are showing leaf spotting, but I did see eggs on a leaf in flower. I'm going to the store first thing tomorrow, I dunno what I'm gonna do but it will be drastic. I ut a couple spotted leaves under a microscope and spotting mites was no problem, so I have no doubt what my issue is. The eggs and mites are textbook google images. I'm gonna drop the bomb to or row sulfur or chems not sure yet, still gonna research a bit. If it's possible to eradicate I'll make it happen, though I'm not terribly hopeful. I just hope I can get through this crop without an infestation. I have a dozen pants in 15 gallon pots, so dipping is beyond my ability. If I find a foliar spray option that I can convince myself that isnstrong enough I'll try that. Is there anyone out there who had mites and legitimately was able to eradicate without completely shutting down? Like I said I feel like I was at least lucky enough to catch it early, however when I spotted e infected leaves, finding mites to verify my problem was a little too easy. So far I just put up a hot shot and trashed my 2 worst infected plants. Fr sure I saw eggs at least on another girl, so it's spread beyond any easy soutiin. For sure I'm doing something tomorrow, and it will be intense. I'm not gonna ease I t the issue with jalapeño sorry or whatever ppl recommend. If it's possible to eliminate an infestation, I'm gonna make it happen, and I'll iodate here and tell ppl how I did it. Wish me luck!

Your answer to killing spider mites and prevent them from coming back was listed right above. Floramite SC. It stays on the plants for 21 days so it will kill all current mites and kill the mites that hatch from their eggs. With the Floramite SC you spray the leaves top and underneath.

no pest strips are 100% effective..
