I use it up to about a week before harvest; it's completely safe to do so.

So you would rather let the ladies go unprotected for half of their flower cycle instead of using an organic pesticide with a proven track record. To each his own I guess... Google "azamax safe to use up to harvest". Now, I'm not saying it's safe to chug the stuff, but you will be perfectly fine using it up to the week of harvest. Doing so does not effect the quality, taste, potency or appearance in any negative way that I've seen.

eagle 20 is a systemic cure for mildew and is not a pesticide, it is also made for golf courses and if used on a mj plant, should probably only be used in veg.

Yeah eagle 20 is for PM my bad and only used in veg. .. I use floramite! but wouldnt use it during flowering. I read up on Azamax and through it might be "safe" its got to have some effect on the buds if you spray them a week before harvest! Take care of your mites before you even start flowering....I guess if your stuck in that spot ya gotta do what ya gotta do... personally Im not smoking that!

I have to say, neem oil worked for me, with a shoot of Dawn soap to make it stick better.
I had a problem with mites too.I even made a thread about it.I used just Dawn soap, which did help, but they came back even more, plus I got lazy at always spraying them down.Then I tried the pepper mix which did help too.But to me it was just as effective as Dawn soap.Well after a 2 months with dealing with mites I went to Low's(my store) and got this
This stuff really works, my mite promble is now a thing of the past!Well that's my story, good luck.
ps the neem oil was $9 at low's

My vote is for mighty wash. It doesn't take a lot of that stuff to do the job if you have a good sprayer.
Couldn't have said it better myself! I just scored a wicked deal... got two liters of Avid for $100.00... at my local hydro shop they sell it for $20.00/2.5 ml

You dont wanna play games with mites. Especially the supermites they have around here! They will laugh at you while your spraying them with neem oil!
