:( I have mites HELP ME PLEASE!!!

So I went to the homedepot and they did not have any neem oil or hot shot no pest strip (had to drive through a blizzard to get there so I'm not too surprised). I did however see neem oil at the hydro store when I picked up my doctor doom. And this soap that you guys keep emntioning, is it the same soap that was labeled insecticide soap in the gardening dept in a bottle? Thanks again all!

BTW, Ironically I found one of those flee/tick colors on top of my fridge... which is really odd since I don't own a dog and I have no idea where it came from, that being said I do get high a lot...

If you don't want to use pesticides you might try SM-90 made by Nutralife. It's not a pesticide... it is a foliar feeder for your plants. A side benefit of this product is that the bugs don't like it. Kills 'em dead and they don't like to come back. You need to soak the leaves... top and bottom. Do this 3 times 3 days apart and you should get rid of all your mites. I you then spray once everyother week you should keep them off. You can spray right up to a week before harvest... but we never spray any sooner than two weeks to harvest.

We don't use anything else, because it's safe for you, the plants love the stuff, and it get's the bugs. You don't have to worry about your plants having a bad reaction to the pesticides... which has happened to us several times. SM-90 has saved many of our harvest.

boil hot peppers n spray em they don't like pepper spray either

I've done 2 applications of Dr. Doom. I have not seen anything moving since the first spray. I will do one final spray on all the plants tommorow, then I'll pray the neem oil on the ones that are still vegging so my problem does not return

Yes, mix peppers and lemon juice in water, then spray your plants well. It will take care of mites. Also, mites dont like strong breezes or to be sprayed with water. So everyday spray them with plain water, and then turn fans on plants. Mites hate that.

You know the guy who owned this house before me (like 2 years ago) left ropes and stuff so I bet he had an op going on, had mites and somehow those mites have finally managed to find their way to my girls . I went my first 2 harvests clean. Does this happen to everyone? Like are spiders just part of the growing game that we all have to deal with?

yea..that guy probably moves out of the house to get away from them...

If you ever had an infestation of mites, you'd realize that won't do a thing to eliminate the mites

ya money is not an issue so I'd rather spend 30$ on a can of Dr.Doom instead of tryin to wipe something together, like I said, seems to be doing the trick. Tonight they get one more spray of pyrtherine and then it's Neem oil for the vegging plants only and I'll keep my fingers corresed on the plants that are 2 weeks into flowering, but again, after spraying once all I could find were dead ones and the dude at the store said he'd never seen anyone catch it so early, so I might be safe.

Whatever, works 100% of the time.

It totally does work.

I'll tell you all how it works,

the Doktor Doom Fogger that is.

Just applied to my Durga-Mama's.

All right bro here is the deal make several applications of pyrethrum you can find this at any local mercantile. also try making a solution of pyrethrum and nasturcian plants emulsified this will help if your going for the whole organic thing which by the way is the way to go so have at and good luck. smoke dope every day

So far so good. Minimal plant damage from the Dr.Doom spray and I still can't find anymore. Might have gotten most of them. I found the bomb though at a local hardware shop so at the next sign of troubles I'll use that. Don't use AVID while flowering! That shit can kill you.
