    Default Spider mites FML

    So I’m doing dutch passion white widow & ghs exdous cheese and in the 3rd week of flower I noticed the leaves had we white spots on them then i noticed they wee vaginas so i sprayed the bottom half with brandy as thats all i had at the time it was 70%brand 30% water mix, the cuttings also had them so i sprayed them with dr schimmels mite terminator 2 applications and they where gone from my cuttings

    Now when i pull this down next week or so how can i get rid of these as i know my grow tent had thousands in there by looking at the plants

    Any pointers/ tips would be greatly appreciated

    You must have excellent eye sight or a very good scope if you can spot a spider mites vagina.

    Harkers Mectin is a brilliant product, just a couple of drops in a litre of water, in a spray mister. Mist the room, leave for a couple of days then mist again. It kills mites on contact, but doesn’t affect their eggs, hence misting again a few days later to kill any hatchlings.

    If the room is empty of plants, they have no food or breeding grounds, but I would still give it a good spray and clean up before starting again. Then keep a very close eye on any new plants you have in there. You can use Harkers on vegging plants but not flowering as it is also systemic.
