I posted in another thread that my plant was on day 20 of flowering and it barely had white pistols, it looked like it was in day 10-12 of flowering.. SO the mites were affecting its flowering (barney's lsd 2 diff phenos). Last night I sprayed azamax and today I removed all the lower fans with most of the mites. Also 98% of the mites seemed dead only seen a few moving.. Tonight spraying azamax again... Any other suggestions??

good thing your spraying at night with azamax ( lights out), i got some burn on mine with lights on spray ,
I also used avid and never saw mites again, but only use the strong mitacides like avid or floramite in early veg

are you able to dunk your plants?,, or are you in a scrog or tied up?

Thanks for quick reply... They are scrooged up, it would be a huge pain in the ass... Like I said 2 different Barney's LSD and the one LSD the mites liked.. Like I said each fan leaf had about 6-8 mites on it and I only seen a coulple moving. NOW they are on day 22 of flower but look more like day 15 or something. Stressed a little from mites also had problems in veg with cal/mag... Will I still get a decent yield plants are big and green.

Turned the lights off the last couple hours when lights were suppose to be on then drenched with azamax.

i had mites with 2 plants tied up in scrog, and I made it to harvest using azamax, they will come back, but it does a good enough job of knocking them back, and you will have to spray as you go later, but at least azamax is on the allowed list of bug sprays for flower stage

Fucking a very mild winter where I live, I have springtails too, but they don't like plants, they are like dust mites.

Azamax is good if you drenched them with it last night I'd wait a day or two to do it again if I were you ....it doesn't kill on contact in my experience ...supposedly messes up there feeding and kills them that way .....I usually do a neem azamax combo with a drop of dawn dish soap if I see them ......I alternate between neem and AZA for prevention works well ....I'm all about prevention measures ....good luck

You will need to address this on your next grow a cleaning and maybe a bug bomb, that get in carpet and on clothes

So do mites slow up the flowering process?? Like I said I'm on day 22 of flower and it looks more like day 16 or 17.

I seen a few webs, but they were almost univisible to the naked eye.
Yes there webs are tiny but you get enough of those little basterds and there webs will be apparent real quick ......just keep a close eye on them and I wouldn't use more azamax tonight wait a few days and then if you can do the solution I said above ....it works great for when your actually battling them
