okay so i have a might problem on a couple of my plants
its not that bad and still in early stages
i was wondering if i could use pyrethrines on flowering plants and if it will affect the out come of the bud?
i think its dr dooms spray not sure on that but i know for sure it has pyrethrines in it and not pyrethium
plants are 36 days into flowering

well... that would depend on how long you have until harvest not the length of time they have been in flowering. What makes you think you have a 'might' problem? VV

Thats just shitty they just had to be flowering.... Any idea how they got there? Because if you get rid of those ones more will come they always do.

I would say a greenhouse pest fogger, one of the plant safe organic shizles.
They didnt work for me though but I had them bad.

Spray the hell out of them. One of the best things and the cheapest in the long run is to mix your own Neem-Oil Insecticide.
1 tablespoon of neem oil, one table spoon of liquid dish soap without additives, and one gallon of tepid water. If the neem doesn't 'readily' mix the water is too cold, heat it a little and the neem will disolve. Put it in a spray bottle and go to work. Spray the underside of the leaves especially, as you noted the eggs are there. DO this again in 3 days and then again a week from now, and every week, until 3 days from harvest. Your pets could drink water with neem oil in it and be just fine.
It will take at least two weeks before you will get rid of them because it takes that long for the eggs to hatch. VV:blsmoke:

Ive tryed neem oil,, bug and insect sprayS,, soap,, bombs, nuthin worked for me,, now we just live together,, I just consider them like the neighbors I cant stand,, I dont fuk with them,, and they suck the life out of me and my girls,, They dont complain...... the thing Ive noticed about them is if you keep it on the colder side they seem to go away,, but the hotter it gets they multiply quickly........:peace:....

Yes colder temps and constant air movement discourage spider mites. It is possible the mites in your area have developed a resistance. Your county Agriculture office should be able to help you with this. They will know what is being used in your area. VV
