Pyrethrin and flowering

How long into flowering can i administer a miticide with pyrethrin?

i think ive finally won the war on these little fuckers but i want to keep administering for a while just in case. My plant is just over a foot tall and i want to start flowering i think (due to space i cant afford for it to be that much bigger than 2 feet tall) which brings me back to the question at the top.
 
I have had to set off pyrethin bombs when I was 2 weeks from harvest on one side of room and 2 weeks into 12/12 on the other end. Everything was cool. Just make sure lights are out as this stuff will burn your plants if lights are on
 
oh most excellent, im using a concentrate mixed with water in a spray bottle ... but i shouldnt worry about spraying the actual buds once they start forming?

Generally it's not a good idea to spray your plants once they start budding.

As long as your humidity is low enough to cause the water/spray to evaporate quickly, you shouldn't get any mould. :)
 
about half an hour after i spray the plant its pretty much completely dry, but ill be sure to remember not to spray at night when theres no light :D
 
Spray again is 4 days (important) then again in 4 days, then in 4 days mist them off. Eggs hatch every 3 days.

thats what i started with but i really wasnt making any progress, these fuckers are really really resilient, its gotten to the point where i currently spray 2 or 3 times a day, ive been keeping a close eye on the plant to make sure it doesnt show any negative signs on it from so much, and so far it seems to be fine
 
Yeah so you know how bad they are. Just keep on them. I have a friend that sprays pyrethins, then the next day washes it off, sprays again the 3rd day, 4th day wash off 6th day again sprays and washes off 7th day.
I never did. I just sprayed every 3rd day x3 .
 
im going to try the pryethrin bomb, ive been fighting them, lost 2 plants, very upsetting, ive done insectal soap, neem, now ill use pryethrin, ive moved them outside, it gets hot when the sun shines, then they show up, the bottle said once a week, more like 3 x aweek, goodluck
 
ive been contemplating upping the ratio. currently im using like 1 tablespoon per 32 oz. spray bottle. thats 2x stronger than whats reccomended. thinking about upping it up to 4x rofl

Try getting some ladybirds/ladybugs.
 
They won't do any good at all again'st spider mites. I let go 3000 in a 10x10 room, but the spider mites reproduce so extremely fast, the only difference you will see is spider mite tents going up everywhere.

Pyganic EC 5.0 is labelled for use on food crops like lettuce or cabbage with 0 days to harvest, so I'm guessing you could apply basically any time, right?
