If you have any webs on your plants you have a heavy infestation. The problem with all of these neem and all natural products is that they do not kill the eggs. You can spray as much neem as you want but those eggs will still hatch every 6 or 7 days. Thats why I use the Floramite, Avid, and Forbid. Forbid kills the eggs and if you spray every square inch of your op then the chances of them coming back is slim. If the mites and eggs are dead the I dont see how they would become immune to anything. I will never allow another foreign cutting or clone near my garden again without treating it first. I dip the hole clone into the solution. Subcool does this with gifted clones as well. except he just uses Avid. Just my 2 cents. That will be all from me.

Hopefully it will work.Also got a humidifier to keep it humid
for a couple days the plants got 85-90 F degree temps and 30-23 percent humidity... mannn they just swarmed that hot dry space.... so now my temps at 73F and 50humidity... we will have to see how good the humidifier actually is I want it to be brought up to 60% humidity I also have a fan directly on them ... I guess I will use that spray every night?? How much is to much?

Most helpful bro....all my mothers have been giftes as clones but they were all quite large when I got em so it'd be a challenge to dip em....so I would just dip the whole plant in the solution? I kno the soiil holds many things, including bugs...should I pull the most affected, shake the roots n replant em? It seems to work at school in the greenhouse..figure it can't hurt to try it at home but I wanna make sure first
