I use this for weekly maintenance, foliar and root drench. It works. Do not apply after flowers start showing.

For an outbreak, not really - as a preventive measure, neem is pretty effective against spider mite.

I'm 4 days into flower should I use it
If you're only 4 days from light change, take your lights back to veg and treat them. After you get them cleaned up go back to flower.
I hope that helps.

try to spray them just before lights out or just before on, like a couple hours. just so the light doesn't burn it in. done that a few times.it wasn't too bad, but if you can avoid it.
I used like a garlic,chilli organic type spray, from the hardware store. It worked(surprisingly well).I had a massive infestation of mites on my last, and some on my current grow.
unsure of the product you have.

In saying what
Don't discard neem from what I wrote earlier. I still use it with great success. When mixed with soap, it even kills my flying fungus gnats on contact because the soap makes their wings stick and the water stick on their body drowning then pretty much.

If you want to add something else to the mix to blast the mites, you can try Spinosad. If I have bad bugs and want to knock them out fast, I mix full strength neem (1oz/gal of product I posted before) with full strength Monterey Spinosad. Use that to do foliar and root drench. Bugs gone.
