LOL...i joke with my friend when his plants are budding... hahaha

foliar spray it.

Im going to vacuum the plant

he's a week from harvest. it will get all over the buds.

I didn't realize but if he put a decent size fan directly on them should be good? what happens outdoors?

To me thats kind of a trade off... you may slow the mites down but now you maybe possibly have to deal with wind burn.. He's only a week away from pull down so i dont see a big point in trying to deal with them as aggressively as a fan directly on them 24/7.

 

[Bose]

Man this is a nightmare. I will try the fan

 

[Bose]

Do they like cold temp? I will lower them also

and if he's not completely infested, the wind blowing them around for sure would.

what supposedly does work is high levels of CO2 if you could do that. i forget what the ppms were for how long.

And wait a day or two then do a nice rinse with water. Atomist or a new paint sprayer is a must on the ol xmas list.
Something with a little pressure behind it, hell even a garden hose sprayer. Anything to wash the dead shit off because if you hit them they will die with mighty wash
I was thinking they also made a power wash but that maybe was a pm thing , not sure.

Well.....They didnt just appear in force at infestation level overnight...Seems your a little late to the fight. ?

 

[dbkick]

back on topic, yeah patron is for the peasants but I had to take a second job to upgrade to don julio.
Fuck those spider mites up. go to home depot , get the baddest airless sprayer they have, get a gallon of mighty wash and fuck those mite up!

 

[Bose]

I am late to the fight for sure

I'm in the process of Washing the leaves with neem and dish soap. Then I might just pull them

not neem, no oils!

Mighty wash and then pure water or a washing product if they make one, then pure water.
You could also use flying skull nuke em and then rinse a couple days after. Flying skull is a natural fungicide too I believe, potassium sorbate inert and citric acid as active ingredient .
I assume the potassium sorbate is the fungicide since it's a food preservative.

so anyway, good luck with that!
