Thank you.

Since the life cycle is every 3 days, why do people spray every 3 days, instead of every other day, thereby staying ahead of it?

Thanks so much guys, this has been a real ...experience.

So why don't we all just spray daily for a week and a day, and be done with it?

I don't have a way to take a picture. I'm using two scopes, one has a scale printed on the lens printed in thousandths, so I can get a really good idea of the size. It's a 30x. The other, is a 20-40x, it's green, it was about 10$ I found it here, and it works really well. I'm not 100% that...

I have, or hopefully had, a spider mite problem. I've used the foggers, mighty wash, organicide once, and a neem oil mix every 3 days from November 11, till Chrismas, and then I started treating with neem oil mix every other day since. I have not seen mites in a few weeks, but I'm still seeing...

How long can a spider mite egg live?

Thats ok, you still look like kids to us...

One thing I learned about neem oil... When you're treating with neem, making wax doesn't work. Comes out all runny.

Sounds like (likely) fungus gnats. A serious problem, but easier than spider mites. You'll want mosquito drops, http://www.thepondreport.com/store/biological-mosquito-control it's a living bacteria that goes into the water you feed the plants with. The gnats lay eggs in the soil, 300 eggs to one...

Mites live on the leaves. Make sure you know what your target is. (and what is behind it)

Weed has been around and smoked for 6-10.000 years, and as a result, we know that it is safe. Wax however, has been around about 15 years, and though the consensus is that it is safe, we really do not know. Another thing to consider. Frequently burnout happens within about 10 years, and that's...

When I added the peppermint oil, it turned the mix into a slime. Get rid of the ladybugs! These things are smart. Like up there with bees and ants smart. They will herd the mites like little sheep, and then they use them for little mite farms. They are smart enough to not eat themselves out of...
