Hello everyone, this is my first post!
So I discovered some spidermites couple of days ago(very mild infestation). My girls are 4 weeks and 2 weeks into flower(soil) Went and bought Mighty Wash for 4week plants and Azamax for 2 week. As I was spraying tops and bottoms of all the leafs I then also discovered THRIPs! I did finish spraying all my girls and the question I have is, would Mighty Wash and Azamax work on thrips or I would need to get and spray spinosad? havent had any bug for last few years, this year been battling mold and now bugs.

Mighty wash didn't do squat for my thrips, azamax helped a little, but Spinosad took every single one of them out in two treatments.

4 weeks into flower. You need to spray every 2 days with mitey wash. With the 2 weeks hit them with azamax hard every couple days. Once you get deeper into flower you have to switch to mitey wash as you don't want to get the azamax on you buds. Use spinosad on thrips. Your plants are gonna be screwed if you don't get everything in control.

UPDATE! No sign of spider mites, but thrips are still there. I guess for whats it cost mighty wash is worth it if you got mites. One thing i thought was odd is that , neither the label or their website has any good info on what is it used for and whats are ingredients. Is spinosad safe on 4 week in flower?

spinosad is safe on 4 weeks in. Mighty wash is just Ionized water, that's why they don't tell you what it is. lol for what it cost it's hard to warrant it on large grows. Im not sure about how well it works too but people say it works. Stay on em.

Spray the Mighty wash a 2nd time after 3 days and your good but you can also use it 1 more time 3-5 days after that just to be sure. Always spray with weak lighting on, and rinse it off well to avoid serious burns. Stuff always works, for the people that it doesn't its due to improper coating.

Is that like being very mildly pregnant? Sorry couldn't help myself, welcome to RIU.

If there is one thing to overreact to it is spider mites! I got them for the first time recently and tried all the organic solutions and thought I had them beat, one week after that they came back even stronger.

Azamax combined with a neem oil soil drench and a couple gassings with no pest strips did the trick for me. Do not use no pest strips at 4 weeks in though, and never if the grow is in your living area. I also recently picked up some spinosad and applied it at 3 weeks into flower. I have not seen a mite in a while but I know the little bastards are hibernating somewhere outside my tent or in a crack somewhere and will likely be back at the worst time. Stay on them, they are called the "borg" for a reason. Haven't used mighty wash yet but get the feeling I will be needing it soon.

For thrips I found sharp sand about an inch on top of the soil will kill them where rhey try jumping in and out the soil it cuts them to shreds
