Howdy yall just got over to one my lesss tended ops noticed got a bug issue not a hundred percent sure but looking like russets go me classic taco of leaves drying up and there a rather clear or tan looking mite.. Any who was wondering if anyone sprays essential oils or anything home made to rid them im not really trying to spray neem or grendivo all over my fully organic babies but will if i have to figured id get some opinions
 
I used to take my inside plants outside on nice days for sun and fresh air. I don't do that any more. I picked up mites, bad. I didn't realize it until damage was forming on my leaves. I was 2 weeks in flower and did a lot of research on various treatments. They all seemed too slow or involved sprays of different kinds. Well having plants all showing hairs and developing buds I chose a natural way. I took my garden hose attached one of those hand sprayers with the variable spray patterns and attacked the plants. I laid them on their sides and starting from the bottom working my way up basically blasted the fk out of them. I did this three times to each plant in one day. They were a sight to see. Bent, drooping, they looked beyond recovery. They survived, as cannabis does. Bugs were 100% gone. It took a few days to recover from the shock but they all grew to be heavy producers. Do I recommend this? No. Would I do it again? Wouldn't think twice about it.

I hung my mothers upside down in the shower and blasted them with the garden hose. Like power washed them blasted.

I love it. Drastic matters need drastic measures. Too funny. And I thought I was the only one. But it works. I didn't care for the thought of folior spraying oils or whatever on my plants. In flower or veg. But I was close to the cyanne pepper solution. Sucks when you get the bugs.
