Never mind on the russets. I've stemmed their spread pretty well, but it's like whack-a-mole...
Dangerous experiment 2--
Application of double-dose sulfur powder. Additionally, half the group to be sprayed had been sprayed with sulfur of a standard dose only three days previous.
Result-
Failure. 60% of those sprayed showed spider mites the following day.
No ill side effects, no burn.
Corollary test-- those shown as still infected were sprayed with SA water with the purpose of "reflowing" the sulfur powder.
Result-
Moderately successful. Another 50% cleared (for now)
