Clean your grow room out when finnished with this round. Spray clones with avid,floromite,shuttle and run pyganic thru the medium. This should kill the bugs pretty easy

Fox Farms don't bug me can be used up to the day of harvest. It's been tried and true IMO.

I use azamax with good results, ive also heard of people rinsing the plants off with water to get rid of them.

you can do 2 things. 1 release a handful of ladybugs in your grow room and 2 when you harvest and hang them up to dry, put some wax or glue on each end of the string. the mites will crawl up the plants, across the string, and get stuck in the wax/glue. this way you dont have to spray pesticides on your bud

I had spidermites 2 weeks before harvest. I soaked them with Mighty Wash from below and then from above. Repeated 4 days later. All gone.

Hay to bump this thread...

I got mites on my vegging plants and sprayed with AVID 4 days ago.
Today I looked and there some alive mites! I sprayed again, only this time I drenched the plants and the cement around the plants.
Im going to bleach out the room also.

I hate mites but I do enjoy killing them!

dbkick, mighty wash is to expensive for outs. I suppose its not even actually possible to treat a plant the size of a tree unless you spent $100 each.
Not feasible.

I got AVID and Forbid now and will kill em before buds.
No more neem, no more Azo they both dont work for huge plants unless you can hit every single inch.
Mite are smart and will not move until the water evaporates. AVID keeps a residue for 30 days, munch munch and die.

35 dollars and I'll treat my entire room and have much peace of mind......twice. What works very very well is usually more expensive than what does not. Its worth every penny and if you don't believe me try it for yourself.

oh outs, I was stoned and couldn't figure out wtf you were saying, my bad, I thought this was the indoor section :/
I could actually do a tree with less than half a gallon with the atomist.

its not really what you spray but how you spray it, the atomist doesn't give them much of a chance to hide.

So yeah, Op, mighty wash, its 99.8335 percent water, the rest inert ingredients, some have argued their poisons are 99 + percent water too but they can't claim the rest inert. This shit is frequency adjusted water. Kills them dead but you could drink it(possibly).

I wish you could make it with some spark plugs and taco shells!
I'm certainly with you there, or even a couple hundred dollar machine, but as it stands who knows wtf they are doing to make it, someone mentioned a rife's device or theory , personally I have no idea and can get by with like 35 bux a grow(70 bux a grow if I wanna be totally sure), to me that's not a bad deal.
