For my first post I will share what I do to keep them things gone.

1. I am the only one caring for the plants.
2. I take a shower and change clothes after being outside BEFORE I even open the grow room door.
3. I am really anal about the shower and clothes. When one of my friends visits, I show the my vegetable
garden outside. Even if I have already taken a shower, I still take another one and put on clean clothes.
4. I treat the moms the same way.
5. I don' take clones from anyone. I have the strains I want. Don't need anymore.

I have gone this entire year with no spidermites. Here in Maine those things are as common as plastic books in a porno movie.

CLEANLINESS IS A VERY GOOD THING

Yeah, neem oil works wonders. I have grown outside in the North East for the past several (several) summers and have ALWAYS used neem oil from day 1. Never had issues with mites or pests, or deer, or rabbits, ect. Stuff is awesome, and organic. But smells like **** ( i guess what a lot of organic matter does)

Plus it makes the leaves nice and pretty, especially in the sun. Though I would spray it around buds....

As a matter of fact that is all I use on some outdoor plants. Not even organic nutrients, I like to harvest one or two that are (bar neem oil) 100% natural, planted in the dirt and watered with nothing but fresh creek water. (I have a plot with a creek that runs right by (about 30-50 meters away)
