I have recently used a product called "Wipe Out" which is a ready to use product and it is also a non systemic product. It is awesome after one application of this stuff all of my mites and eggs were destroyed and my plants look great!!! I highly recommend it. After doing some research on it is a "Translaminar" product so it only absorbs into the leaves of the plant and stays there for up to 14 days.

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuude i have spider mites and they are all in the baby phase right now, ive been spraying azamax and its not working im going to wal mart right now to buy the peppers and do the spray i will update daily and tell how it works my buddy has them too he will use this pepper spray i will leave comments
Just use a product called "WIPEOUT" after one application it took care of the mites and the eggs. You don't have to be a chemist and mix your own stuff that most of the time burns your plants

If you're wondering why 3-4 different people are attacking you in your own thread it's because A) your method is WAY too much work to rid your garden of spider mites. This is a simple problem with multiple, simple solutions. and B) you're trying to censor people on an internet chat board. It's preposterous.
I used a product called Wipe Out and it is awesome It got rid of the mites and eggs after using it once.

I dont have habanera peppers at any local store around me... i know this is a terribly old post, so sorry if this is just annoying for you to receive yet another reply on here, but you seem like you are genuinely interested in helping people.

Sorry to digress a bit from the post but not really. Week 3 of flower. Tried lady-bugs, alot died. (i think they focused on mating before eating) Should i get more ladybugs along with some food (Hirts nature nector) for them, so that they live longer/offspring live to eat the mites. Or get some predatory mites? i don't know if either of these will be effective quickly enough.

Have you tried either of these? would you have mentioned them in the first place if they worked better than pepperwater?

Lady bugs are useless on mites. Good for thrips. Lace Wing larvae works. Predator mites are hard to get to work and take time.

Are you in the USA or Canada? Gives me an idea on what you can buy to fight these bugs. Do you have a 1 gallon sprayer? Also do you have any liquid silica that many growers use?

lady bugs dont eat mites, they eat soft body insects like caterpillars, aphids, whiteflies. great to have in the garden but not for mites sadly. also tip from experience, like any insecticide used exclusively, it will fail to exterminate after a few generations of mites (so a few weeks to months worth of use). deffinitely switch it up every so often, ie neem, cedar, soapy water, iso.

2 weeks to get predator mites to work. They want a narrow band of humidity and temp too.

Okay this is from the Al Bundy guy whitebb2727 but I have used this too closer to harvest in flower.

1. Spinosad by itself. 2 tblspoons per gallon of water. Made by either Bonide as Dr Jacks Dead Bug BRew or Monterey also sells it. Home Depot sells the spray but I like the concentrate with a 1 gallon sprayer.

(see spraying instructions in #2)

Spinosad can also be added to your water (see bottle instructions) when you water the plant. So you can do both.

2. Fels Naptha soap - sold in any grocery store or Wal Mart under detergent aisle a big bar of soap $1.19. Get a cheese grater at the dollar store and 2 quart plastic jars at dollar store. Grate about 1 inch of the soap into jar. Add hot water. Maybe microwave. Let cool and shake. Take about two tablespoons to 1 gallon sprayer and spray undersides of leaves and they the entire plant.

3. Combine #1 and #2. Al Bundy guy has recommended spraying both alone or mixing the two.

4. I tried this version too. Most growers use Silica. It makes the plants tougher and protects them from mites too. You can water in during veg and flower. You can also spray as a foliar spray up to 3-4 weeks into flower. 10 ml per gallon. IF you only use 1/2 gallon of water use 5 ml of Silica. Sold at grow stores as Silica Blast and other brands.
4a. In Veg use Neem oil, Silica Blast and Liquid Aloe or Dr. Bronners Peppermint Soap (liquid). Per gallon of water about 1.5 to 2 tbls spoons of Neem oil, 10 ml or 1.5 tblspoons of Silica and 2 tblspoons of liquid Aloe or 2 tblspoons of bronners soap.
4b. In Flower use 2 tblspoons of Spinosad, probably 5 to 7 ml of Silica and 2 tbls spoons of liquid aloe or 2 tbls of Bronners Peppermint soap..

You can buy Dr. Bronners Peppermint soap in any drug store, grocery store, Vitamin Shoppe, GNC. It has Peppermint oil and Hemp oil which can kill mites. They hate Peppermint too.

I would spray then let it sit for 45 minutes then turn on the fans.
If you are 4 weeks plus into flower, let it sit on the plants for about 4.5 to 5 hours then rinse off with water in sprayer. Turn fans on to dry before lights come back on.

As a second thing to hit it with that is cheap in concentrate is this:

https://www.amazon.com/Safer-Brand-5118-Insect-Killing/dp/B00192AO90/ref=cm_rdp_product

MMJ reviewer says it is good up til day of harvest.

Some people also like Mighty Wash.
Ok. Thank you.

Just to clarify,
Spinosad, silica, Fels Naptha soap and peppermint soap? - water and foliar with spinosad and possibly silica.

Just wondering so that i'm not ignorantly performing steps, what is the advantage of the gallon sprayer over handheld ones? (I have 4 girls)

Thank you so much for the help so far

Yes. Dr. Bronners Peppermint Soap is about $12 for 32 ounces. You can get 8 ounce and 4 ounce bottles for less. 32 ounce might be over kill for 4 girls. It would last forever. Bronners is loaded with oils. Oils and soaps suffocate and dry out the mites and their eggs. You may have to spray and rinse a few times a week.

water and foliar with spinosad and possibly silica.

Yes. You can spray spinosad in veg or flower - get under those leaves. Silica in Veg or early flower as spray. You can water both in at any time.

Just wondering so that i'm not ignorantly performing steps, what is the advantage of the gallon sprayer over handheld ones? (I have 4 girls)

Go ahead with a decent $3 to $4 - 32 ounce sprayer if you just have 4 girls. I like gallon sprayers for more plants.

Thank you so much for the help so far

You are welcome.
