Russet mites in flower

[Mooregrow]

Can they be saved is there anything that will kill them off?

Nope. If you manage to harvest a crop it will be garbage with no trichs. Toss em, strip any mothers you have to keep, and get out the big guns.

I have heard micronised sulphur mixed with water will do the job but I’m struggling to find some or the correct one

Piston tr how bad are they though is it worth it

 

[Mooregrow]

Well they have distorted everything below the net. The main coals are fine but they are working there way up the plant. I have just ordered 50 ladybirds for a 2.4x1.5 m tent with 8 plant do you think that will do the job?

Destroyed*

As a last ditch effort you could water down some DE and dawn dishsoap and spray down till soaked, when dry you will have fine powder all over plant, mites will die after 1 or 2 applications, not sure of life cycle. But you need to rinse with fresh water after mites gone. Not sure how will affect trics but lve used in veg and early flower and no problems.

This is the high tec DE puffer I use.
Sometimes you can find them on sale, DE not included.

I'm editing this to say I only use it in veg, on the soil surface and under leaves before they go into the flower tent.

If it works it works aha, I will try this as a preventative measure next time, I have had no choice to try and same something and used killermite sprey why I Waite for the ladybugs to arrive in a last attempt to save something, just have to chop and lose 90% of two plants, very very sad day, hopefully I can save some more of the rest.. I’m preying

 

[Mooregrow]

Does anyone know if they will dye of during the drying process?

But someone are far behind what they would normally be because of the infestation. Buds haven’t swelled on half and no brown pistols
