Simmering water with pretty much this right now.

Told my gf to pick up dawn non concentrated soap, sounds like that's a safe thing to spray on the plant throughout vegging?

My sick girl (both the big and small ones are white domina CBD). That's about 300 watts of LED. Any estimate on yield flowered?

A couple of months back when I sprayed my clones in cups and a few 1 gal's, they seemed to get a boost from it - lol They took off and had nice colouring, nothing to worry about there. Within a couple of days whatever they were eating away at my leaves were gone. I sprayed my veg tent for prevention and they loved it too. New foliar spray? lol
Edit: I use the dawn dish soap, just not the antibacterial stuff. It's only a few drops per 1/2 gal/2L.

Oh one other thing, is it is fricken cold out, so when you treat them do it in you're garage, that cold ass air will slow them down, make sure to put them back in you're room, but if you put them in the cold garage for an hour so you can clean out you're grow area and treat the plants same time, that will at least slow down the bastards that are there.

In coco from a 1 gal pot I have got up to 8oz in coco. But I would feed 3 times a day on a timer, and that was with 600w, but i think you can hit at least a half a pound off that light if you use coco and work the plant.

Dont have a garage. What about putting it in front of the balcony screen door with it open?

In veg yes, and you really only want a few drops, just enough to see some slight suds, the reason for the soap is to help mix the oil into the water. They use Dawn non con on cute animals in oil spills.

Sure, treat them in front of the door, give them a blast of cold air, it wont hurt, just do not leave them in it for too long, it might slow down the plant a slight bit by a few days, but it is worth it to help slow down the mites.

One other thing I did when I did have some mites, is make sure to clean every 3 days for like 2 weeks, just wipe everything down with a water and alcohol mixture. Or some pinesol mixed with water, or some bleach (do not mix chemicals for cleaning, can be dangerous) wipe everything down every 3 days for a few weeks in case some eggs are lurking around.
For me personally, I just would get some hot water and pinesol, I would get a mop with the squeeze top and i would just literally just mop everything starting from the ceiling and down the walls, to the floor. I would do that every 3 days. Same time I would pull my plants out and spray them down. You can also feed you're plants some h202 with water right into your pots, this will help kill anything int he roots, but use sparingly, I forgot what the dilution is, but make sure you dilute it proper, but you're roots wont mind a quick h202 bath.

I have used mighty wash. No doubt it works. Under a microscope the bugs look like they swallowed a grenade. But i sprayed with lights off and re entered the room 2 min before they turned back on, and the plants were burned. I know lights didnt cause it. Got rid of mites but fucked up the plants

I like to do preventative sprayings after clones come out of trays and are transplanted . And one more before they go into flower seems to prevent any type of trip , mite , powdery mildew , all those pricks. . But I think I jave a new peoblem with broad or russet mites . Invisible bastards

Broad or russet mite create issues that most people confuse with ph issues or some other type of bug or white fly issue. Aswell as heat issues. Bro mites create suck through tender new leaves and there silva has a toxin within that makes the leaf curl upward or downward and eventually makes leaves turn brittle. Searcj first signs of broad mites on Google there tricky little fuckers you might even not know they're lurking
