Alrightm FLORAMITE - who has used it, what's the haps?

So I'm awaiting my floramite to arrive, but first I want to hear from people that have used it. Did it work for you? And if so, what methods did you use to stomp them bastards out? Would the world reallly be a worse place without spidermites? I don't think so.

You spray, they die. And any new ones that try to come around also die for 3 more weeks. If by some miracle you still have any after that 3 weeks you can spray again. Cover every inch of exposed skin, get a respirator or spray outside downwind holding your breath, wear rubber gloves. This is serious stuff, not like some stupid neem oil you have to do all the time and never really ends. You use this and you win the war, period.

That's wonderful to know. I've been trying to find anything that's not systemic, but that's as effective as a systemic. AVID is WAYYY too expensive. I found Ivermectin which is very similar to abamectin (which is in avid) and supposedly ivermectin is a miticide, however I hadn't seen one single thing about using it with cannabis. And right now being recently jobless I can't afford to invest in something ELSE that won't work.

This is systemic though... Seriously.

KK...floramite provides systemic mite protection for your plants look in to it


Actually, floramite is non-systemic. It kills on contact, so you have to spray well or dunk your plants for it to really work well. What I dont like about it is that you can only use it 2 times on any one plant, past that and it can cause severe burning.

The best no hastle, no stress, no work, mite killing substance is Avid that Ive found. Avid is systemic and you dont even have to dunk or spray the whole plant...just spray the top foliage and dont even worry bout the undersides. Avid is absorbed into the plant and when those mite suckers bite into a leaf to eat, they die. It takes all of a few minutes to spray with avid and then your done.

Of course you still got eggs, but you still got the eggs with floramite too. But with avid it keeps killing(even the mites that hatch from eggs after you sprayed) for upto like 21 days. I mean literally you dont have to stress mites at all if you got avid.

I wouldn't use a systemic on something that someone is going to smoke, if I were, I would use the Advanced Bayer 3 in 1 - heard nothing but rad shit about it. Supposed to work as good as avid, apparently, so any plants that aren't cannabis that get attacked, i recommend that
