Heyo I’ve got a bit of a spider mite problem in my garden. I’ve hit em with Spinosad in the past and that seemed to have worked but they’re back in force now. I’ve got some bug strips coming in the mail now I’ve heard they really fuck mites up. I’m wondering if there’s anything else I can hit them with I’ve been hearing about pyrethrim- anyone have experience?

My plants are just about 10 days into flowering here’s a couple pics

Thanks for any insight you might have my friend.

Tell us the temperature and relative humidity. Spider Mites love it hot and dry so often it starts with a plant stuffed into a corner.

What you need to do it rotate weapons in your battle.

Neem/karanja in equal parts with a little dish soap, then Pyganic (or another pyrethrin, liq. or gas), then Flying Skull Nuke 'em (or other preferred product). You can also mix up some essential oils but go light. Focus on rosemary, but add clove, cinnamon, tea tree, etc and aloe flakes. Make sure to give your plants something to kick their immune system into gear like salicylic acid.

Spider mites have a complete life cycle of about 9 days, so make sure you treat every 3 for two to three weeks.

When this crop is done burn everything and spray with 10% bleach. Soak everything in either bleach or concentrated H2O2. Buy new things like cloth pots and stakes if you can afford it.

Mites thrive in humid conditions but seem to have better egg vitality in dry conditions. Do what this dude or dudett says. On point. Spray undersides of leaves. If you have time take a bucket and a spong with the neem mixture described And wipe under neith of leaves off.

Hope the Best

I won’t say the best stuff I’ve found. Seems a-hole(ish) but ? No one ever helped me. I figured out everything by reading and studying.
I will say I don’t have to buy what I found, I can make it. So lol
If you are still ordering grow stuff online, always stay small other wise you will be popped.

Maybe you have found something better, I have used avid, neem, ladybug killer and a few others I can't remember and by far the best working was green clean, made from soy beans and can be used up to day of harvest. Will knock out like 90% with one application but you should use it for weeks like any other treatment. Have you used it Dubr? Maybe you should try it then you would know.

I don’t need to use thanks. You can go to a grocery store and buy what you need to make what you need.

You can, and it works, but not as good. But if you want to save a few bugs and make it your own great, give the guy your recipe.

I don’t give up any information anymore. I am quitting and taking my knowledge to the grave.
Everyone in this industry has only ripped me off, lied to me, and cheat me and use me for my knowledge and kick me to the curb. So how about you all put the hundreds off hours of research I put in since I was 15, and dig holes until your hands bleed. And go through what I have to get the knowledge.
Much Love and Hope the Best

Well I have been growing 20 years and mostly in countries that didn't have hydro stores so I have made various solutions from common ingredients and they don't work as well as green clean. Maybe you got that one secret that could solve everybody's mite problem like you say, and if so, then you are a complete asshole for not sharing. Who gives a fuck what you think the "industry" owes you, did to you or whatever, take it to the grave buddy. For the rest of us, I think Green Clean is the best.

I have to say, after growing for 20 years I never thought it was such a heartache. Maybe its you?

The best ones always want to help. The wannabes are the ones who go around thinking they are owed something.

get a bug bomb that will kill spider mites,turn your fans and extractor fan off,and let the bomb go in the middle of the room....you will have to do this at least 3 times,3 days apart for a large infestation..
