wholly shit READ THE DAMN post properly ...first of mites are attracted to certain chemical smells released from plants when they are weak and dying.... when people grow with chemicals they are 90% of the time stressing the grows to their max.. which in return releases the chemicals that attracts mites.. AND there are some chemicals/salts/metals that are used in our chemicals base feed, that replicates the smells our weak and dying plants release that attracts the damn mites... please don't sit and try to talk to me like your running 100% pure zero chemical grows... and have been for years ... I'm so sick of arguing how things work with people that only know one or two damn things about growing... how bugs feed and live and what irritates me more is people with little to no college education in plant sciences.
