Won the battle, losing the war

So! I had russets and spider mites!!
At the same time can you believe it

Using..

killer mite
Essential oils (almost killed my plants)
Mitacide
Bug clear ultra
Sulphur candle
neem oil every three days

I beat the bugs..
I search and search and noting ..
but the damage to my plants after a overdose of oil caused them to basically die lost almost every leaf of some, but they bounced back

some More than others

and the others is my issue

everything was looking upwards then one plant started drooping and going pale green then I noticed another Pale and small leafs and slow growth

I’m half tempted to re pot the two survivors doing well into bigger bags and ditch the rest

but my question what’s causing this ?
i first thought over watering but I’m in coco/perlite and they’ve all had the same

I don’t want to lose them after all it’s taken to get them back to this but I don’t understand what’s wrong.. any idea

pics are before and after the nuke

Cut your losses.

I wish I had an answer for you. All I can saw is a plant has to be quite a way along before I spend a lot of time and money trying to save it.

Do you think it would be easier and cost effective to continue with these or start over?

Well my thinking is. Two decent plants that have recovered and growing fast can give my the same yield as the 6 or put into bigger pots and verged longer.. is my thinking, after all it’s more to do with light ect than the amount of plants

Nasty bugs, makes me itch. Best of luck recovering your plants.

Keep your place clean. Personally I clean up everything once a week, trying and moving things around as much as I can, using cleaning products to vanish away undesirable forms of life.

I like having a smaller number of bigger plants. That sounds like a lot less work.

Someone posted a suggestion as to how to keep bugs from going up the stock. Cut a yellow sticky bug trap in half and notch it to slip around the plant. It looked like it was being held up from the soil by straws or ~1/4 inch wooden dowels. That should keep bugs from going up from the soil.
