Well those bastards Spider Mites showed in m,y garden from some clones I got from another source. I went to Lowes to get some Neem oil. The only product they which contained Neem Oil was Green Light Fruit Tree Bug Spray. This is more geared to trees, my question is......Is this safe for my girls? I don't want to mess them up.
Please Advise.
Thanks TMB

Dokotor Doom fogger and Knockout Spray will get rid of those little bastards. The biggest thing is to break the breeding cycle. Initial kill then a follow up every three days for about 3 cycles. The part I like best about the 'Doom is it can be used up until a day before harvest! But neem works well also, just be sure to get the undersides of the leaves well. Also they tend to stay towards the top of the plant were it is warmest, so do your treatment just before lights out.

Never tried it my self but 1 of the best solutions to combating spider mites for me has been lowering temps down in the 60's....this prevents the eggs from hatching...I use dont bug me from fox farm if it is really bad......spray under leafs and wipe thoroughly.....and keep temps nice and cold and they disappear after a week or two
