really bad spider mites! yuck I would get a gas can and burn everything ! jk you can fix this but its gonna take a lot of work!!! I wouldn't expect to get anything from this harvest.

Oh damn. Ive had mites for close to 2 weeks but they havent made webs like that. Just curious but how long u think u had those before they webbed up all over like that?

Vacuum them off ...and be vigilant till harvest....then shut down and nuke the shit out of your room every 3 days for 2 weeks alternating poisons...you might get rid of em.

get the hose and spray those fuckers off. too late to treat at this point.

my guess is that you will not get anything from the harvest either. you can try anyway, but it's probably futile.

perhaps you can hash them, but as far as usable buds go? not a lot of hope.

Thanks for the replay's - what do you guys recommend me to do?
NIM OIL isn't a good idea?

Im trying out azamax tomorrow. I will let u know if it works well or not. Everyone says it should do the trick.

could do more harm than good this far into flower.

No neem, vacume the buds off. Buy a gallon of mighty wash and spray every twoish days until the bag of lady bugs you buy save your harvest. Keep applying bugs every couple days until theres no trace of eggs or mites. Should be about 9 days. Your leaves will stay fucked but the harvest will still happen if you do this now. The longer you dont treat the worse they get so dont put it off. Make checking under leaves the first thing you do when you look into your garden.

I've heard mighty wash works great but I've had great luck when just washing with water. I got mites near harvest time once and just took the plants outside and washed them off gently under the hose. I allowed the plants to dry fairly well before putting them back in the grow room. I washed again in a couple of days - hadn't seen anything again but wanted to make sure I wasn't smoking spiders and eggs.

Having said that, your infestation is pretty bad. Your harvest is definitely compromised.

Uncle Buck is right about checking under leaves every time you check your plants. Light spots on the leaves are a dead giveaway.

Something that helps a lot to get rid of spider mites is making sure that your environment is relatively cool and humid. I would try to get temps down to 75F and humidity up to 50 - 60%. This won't kill spider mites by itself but mites love hot and dry so don't give them that.
