im having a spider mite problem in my scrog setup........theres lots of them......i heard using ladybugs will eat all the mites, so thats what i did, bought a box of ladybugs from Navlet's. Lately i've been seeing some webbing on the edges of the leaves.....and eggs on the bottom of leaves....Does anybody know a great solution to get rid of spider mites? the plants been flowering for almost two weeks now.....i heard of soapy water or neem oil, and a bunch of other stuff but dont really know....any answers from the experienced would be appreciatted.
 
azamax. I dipped each plant in a solution of 10ml to 1 gallon of water. Then a spray after a few days after with the same dilution. spider mites are gone.
 
i had them and now they are gone! here is what i tried BEFORE i got rid of them.

AzaMax, spray bottle application
AzaMax, in 5 gal pot and i flipped every plant over and dunked it in the shit.
Dr. Doom bomb (2)
Pyrthrem TX bombs (green house grade 10x the active ingredient of Dr. Doom) 2 and they just burned the plant nearest.

SN17 i think thats the name. provided in a small spray bottle as a sample. smells like soap. maybe it worked IDK because i only had enough to do one small mom.

what worked was this.......


Floramite SC!!!!!! on ebay some dude repackages it into 1oz containers for $20. it's like $220 a qt. 1 oz of the concentrate makes 24 gallons of solution. i used about 4-6 gallons on 50 plants in a 2 gal pressurized sprayer and never saw another bug. this stuff has a 28 day residual effect. this can NOT be used on a plant in flower but if you get shit in check in veg you will have no worries.
 
i just had a huge prob w/spider mites also on my ww one was done flowering, the other was about 4 weeks from finish, i noticed a web on my mother plant so i got the insect soap, did that, didnt work, did the neem oil, i thought i got them but they must have been real healthy spider mites, luckly i harvested the 1st plant, was getting ready to rejuventate, noticed more webs, i didnt want my other plants in vege to get them, so here where i live it was storming real bad, i live out in the country, so i took all my plants & put them out in the storm, fumigated my grow room, my two plants that were flowering, the one i was rejuventating, the other 4 wks from done turned white!!!! amazing i really didnt think they were that bad, its been a month that all my girls have been outside, no more spidermites, no more leaves either on the two, but the mites must not be able to get thru the resin the buds are really nice now even the sugar leaves are coming back, i went ahead & planted outside, the other ww & black domino, spider mites are hard to get rid of you have to be very very careful not to go outside then go in your grow room, change clothes, shoes, dont use clippers in grow room then outside, i also spray w/bt when outside growing, cant stand catapillers in my bud, praying mantis are good too i hear, i didnt have time to wait till i had $$, good luck
 
i just looked up azamax, looks like that might do the trick.....i might just try spraying it... thx for replies, VERY helpful.......keep smoking tho....
 
spraying is good just make sure you hit every nook and cranny. spray the shit out of the bottom of the leaves. dipping is the best, but a little for difficult when the plants are larger.
