Neem oil mid strength misting 3x a week for 2 weeks, mealy bugs gone...

Had them once and it made me sad so I made them dead.

Don't really know about iso spraying mites and mealys. All I know is mealy bugs hatch new generations every 3-5 days... A few mealy bugs turn into infestation, leaf drop, yellowing, necrosis, and stunted growth.

Plus side I would use that iso to make qwiso. ;-)

check this stuff out http://www.dazeys.com/blog/trifecta/ be careful using neem on flowering plants because they absorb it and it will make the smoke taste like shit, been there done that.
I haven't tasted any shit to compare it with neem ....you seem legit so il take your word for it BT..

He's rite don't douche your buds in neem or any chemicals deep into flower or near chop .....aza says it can be sprayed up to the day of chop .....but I wouldn't trust that either

Good point .....I hate getting neemed in the face when I'm misting in the green houses late at night in the dark .......that perfect summer breeze wofting it back into my face ....:cuss:

I have used azamax on mealys and can confirm it works real good.

Yeah fux that, think hard about spraying buds.

#Sidenote
Mealys will take off if you cut the N down. But then they are loitering some where in the area, plotting.

PROMIS works time and time again, for a few other bugs also . Best shit for a few reason. Add a GoNat Flush and you are all clear for a Month ! Also take black Sweet coffee and set it in the room and see add up. #StarBucksKills
