I've used predatory mites before and they work but it may be too late if you only have 10 days. You could pay some expensive overnight shipping and maybe get them Tuesday or Wednesday unless you can find some locally,most of the breeders seem to be on the west coast. The predators seem to suck the goodies out of the mites and their eggs like a spider but I think leave the carcass behind. Once they run out of things to eat they die off and they look like another mite so your dispensary will just think their regular mites unless they know better.
Lady bugs work if they are established, takes time imo.
Look into predatory mites, those work wonders.
I spray up until a week ir two before harvest, never ever had a problem. Most sprays i use are botanicals.
It's just not worth it. Not very many mites(hopefully) and the amount of lady bugs should take care of it. I put a shit ton in there...even if they eat one egg a piece 700+ lady bugs will do some work on what ever is in there in order to survive. Sorry ladybugs...you died with honor!!!
be nice to compare this 2000 dollar light to a homemade cree CXA set up...
like maybe this guys light vs your AT600

I'm glad your finally on the cxa wagon and not just boasting that a cheap light can compete with a top end brand. But I hope you realize that the cxa isn't a cheap, no name, low bin chip. THE top end if you get the top bin and on paper are fucking killer.
As for 480w vs 685w over the same space...it's not going to beat the AT. Just saying and I thing that many would agree even cxa guys(I'm in the closet about my cxa love, but it's there).
Watt for watt would be a great show. And by all means make it happen...but just talking about how you don't think "professional" panels are better than a cheap chinese is a joke.
DIY can incorporate the most up to date tech as soon as possible. No tooling, overhead, testing to go about. Just buy and build.
I have said it many times...I have a few diy's on the drawing boards but I have plenty of great performing "professional" panels that I have no need to side bar at this time. If the cxa takes it to a new level(we have to wait and see) then I will get on it. But I don't see any other lights doing what the at600 is right now.
Glad you found the best. Now go grow something with it.
