Azamax. It's an organic neem extract that works great. Everything else failed for me and tried 4 different organic products including lady bugs and 3 really nasty non organic sprays including several bug bombs.

Last year two out of five of my vegging white rhinos had a bad reaction to neem oil. I'm now exclusively using soap + water, then when the plant is dry I'm dusting with food grade Diatomaceous Earth. I know many gardeners swear by neem oil but for what it's worth, there are other options for organic growers that are even safer.

I bought the safest stuff I could find and tested it on a section of one plant,it seems to be fine so I lightly misted the air with it haha...I'm scared to poison them!!!Are spidermites pretty much a given or is it possible to be pest free???

Make sure to spray with lights off and let the plants completely dry before turning the lights back on. If there is any wet azamax on the leaves with lights on it can and most likely will burn your leaves.
