:) He's just mad cause he had not used Mighty Wash yet. Leave him be with his Poisons.
pardon me, I didn't realize pointing out the facts was "being a dick" , and I think it may be you that needs to lighten the fuck up. who are you to call me a dick?

Azamax every couple days for 3 applications. If it's really bad, then Floramite ONE time is all it will take to kill mites and eggs. Also I love the Dr. Doom bombs which help alot too.

RAW knows not what he speaks of.......Azamax is a concentrate of neem oil, from the neem tree. Dr. Doom bombs are made of pyretheum, made from flowers. Both are natural and fine to use, even in flowering. Floramite is a chemical, but very effective when things are out of control.

He does know one thing though, he know out of all the things to use mighty wash IS the best hands down, look at the original post, does it ask about neem? no, it asks about two products , its fucking multiple choice get it? Now I'm being a dick.

i hope so...my shop guy says he emailed npk, and got a reply on some free samples...he also said it is unique in that there is no other mite product out claiming to use electric water...he is just as interested in it as i am...i used sns 217 sample, and it was probably a waste of my time because i cant do anything with my 2 weekers...and 1 of them had mites for sure...so i am curious now if 217 is a preventative as well? and another question...about how long would it take for mites to become such an issue with 23 girls that it starts to effect plant vigor, and yeild? i am hoping i have a good 2 weeks before i need to spray again...that way i wont have anything nearing harvest to worry about.

I use Forbid and Floromite mixed. it kills all species of mites AND their eggs. I don't have a mite problem in the grow room. But I spray the stuff at work and I also get it for free. Yeah Forbid is like $200/qt I think.

I used to have mites, and used the recipe above to kick thier ass. You can buy little 25 dollar bottles, it only takes 4 drops to a quart of water.
I spray a little time release pyrethium on the floor of my room once in a while just to keep them outa there. I also used a no-pest strip , on and off.
I only applied these when the plants were in veg.

( i should clarify, I alternated between using floramite and forbid... not at the same time.)

Your telling me that suggesting something other than the title is some kind of sin or something.Obviously he has a mite problem and I was trying to help someone and your comment was not needed. I don't understand why everyone immediately wants to jump down someone's shit for trying to give helpful advice. So can you explain to me how me trying to suggest a solution to spider mites is such a bad thing? Why is it that you needed to call someone out? Does it make you feel sweet? And I am calling you a DICK b/c your snarky ass comment was being a DICK plain and simple.

Dbkick my apologies. After seeing your vast amount of growing experience in your profile (less than 1 year) I see now how you are so qualified in mite control. In a year you've probably seen all the deficiency's and problems one might incur growing MJ. My suggestion was way out of line and I can't believe that I would offer advice trying to help someone with mites. I didn't realize I was in the presence of a master gardener such as yourself.

Would not matter if you started growing tomorrow. Pick up Mighty Wash and you're a VET in mite control.

hey I'm from colorado, you don't need much time growing weed to experience mites , nobody asked for your advice on anything but two products, if you had no response on either of these two products wtf are you replying for?
