Iv been reading about these Phytoseiulus persimilis (preds) it says to introduce a new bottle weekly untill preds become an established population so it may take more than 1 bottle don or is this just marketing?




Phytoseiulus persimilis 2000: Spider mite control

Unit size: 2000 mites in a shaker bottle

Phytoseiulus persimilis is a predatory mite which feeds on adult spider mites and their eggs. It is a well known and standard treatment for spider mites in many crops, particularly strawberries, tomatoes and ornamental plants. It is suitable for all greenhouse plants and can also be used outside.

These predatory mites are harmless to humans, pets and livestock

Use when temperatures are between 4 - 28 degrees Celsius, in the greenhouse or outside. The population of predators will dramatically increase when temperatures reach 20 degrees Celsius, but will decline at very high temperature and in low humidity. Do not expose to sunlight at any time, keep the bottle cool and horizontal until ready to use.

To use: Just before opening, rotate the bottle gently to distribute the mites evenly through the carrier. Remove the cap and gently shake the product over the infested leaves, rotate the bottle frequently to ensure uniform distribution. Leave the empty bottle on an infected plant to allow any remaining predators to escape.

Pack coverage: one bottle covers up to 500 m2. Use weekly or fortnightly until population is established.

Please order before 10am Monday for delivery Thursday or Friday of the same week. Orders received after this time will be delivered the following week.

These natural predators are living products and as such they must be used on day of receipt. Express delivery option is strongly recommended at checkout to ensure they arrive in good condition

(Express delivery: £7.00)

Pics are fine Don.
I'm the only creamer that demands the power of hi-res is mwah :lol:

So whats with the sativa stretchy lowryder ladies.
Seems like hit and miss with those auto's.
More geneteic stabilisation needed there I suspect.

If your doing a perpetual you can't worry too much about canopy level.
Just have you light stationed according to the tallest girl and the rest wil be happy.

Spidermites hate good ventilation.
How you changing that air in there?

The thing I would worry about is spraying them in flower, will the bud take on the taste of the stuff your spraying them with?

weeeeeeeeel the lowryders were actually from a lowryder#2 plant that was left to go too far and popped about 30 beans out, i got em from a mate and he got a pack of seed with them free n they were the craziest sativas like 20+ weeks i think they must have been part of the lowryder breeding program as they were sativa in buzz but absolutely zero of the ruderalis.

the crazy weird growing bush is the one i want shot of n my pals just got a fuckin huge tent but got nothin to go in it for months till his seeds are ready...

as for ventilation im leting the throughdraft of my house pull air though a window in the room with the tent in and presently i have the tent door wide open with a 6" oscilating inside it and a 6 " clamped to a deckchair in the doorway two bottles of frozen water in a buckjet and its still 3oc :cry: i need a cooltube but ive still got nowhere to vent to honestly global friggin warming

:lol: what I want is a pic of that deck chair with a 6" fan clamped to its arse with a couple of coldies :lol:
I want ot sit in that fucker and replace that frozen water with some icey ales ;)

Seriously though.
All you need is a 6" inline sucking the air from the tent.
A little ocilater inside.
Then go sit in that decky and cool off :lol:

30C is fine.
I want my area 28C with 30C being high, but still cool...
You just need to exhaust that air out of the tent and then control the outer tent environment with a couple of coldies ;)

Get yaself a liitle 150mm inline fan and some ducting, and start sucking the hot stuff out of that tent.
It will draw the surrounding cool air in as it works ;)

i read up on the stuff and its supposedly all good to use right the way through/!?!?! but ill not be spraying in the last 4 weeks of flower so i reckon itll be all good, even the bug spray that was harmful to smoke said if you leave it off for the last couple of weeks it would be ok.

ahahaha yeah me getting a tan in the grow room, lol my missus sleeps in at the weekend and has found me sat in there at like 10 am buck nekkid with a beer n me book...

i tried to put the fan ive got inside blowin the hot air out but the holes for ducting not a fan n wasnt really working plus its at the botton of the tent :-| i think i might just put a whole in the upper part or the roof and rig up the fan. it will be pumpin hot air into the surrounding room but will probably drop the tem at least a few degrees right?

If ya gonna go ghetto on me Don...
Just unzip you tent half way.
Have a fan in the tent blowing out through the open zipper.
About the same place your ol' fella would hang out if when your taking a leak. :lol:

All you need to do is keep the air moving in, pass them, and out.

Summer must be real headache over there for you eskimos!

a poor little baby child is born in the ghettooooooooooo and my momma cries........

hahah i tried it that way mam clipping the fan into the corner of the zipper part helped a little but not much i do have access to some dry ice but it would melt faster than ice.

would be fine if it was my crib id have holes into the roof by now, or the grow in the roof lol

All I did on my first grow was pull the air from the tent with an inline duct fan (250 cfm) to the outside of the tent. I cut a hole in the side and used the fan to push through the fliter. I didn't have my light ducted, it just sucked the hot air out from the top where it will naturally migrate and because of the negative pressure in the room it will draw cooler air in from anywhere it can. So you don't need anything fancy just something that will draw air from the room.....

thats what i have now 5, filter inside the tent ducted to fan blowing out into the room and it does chuck the air out quite quickly but its circling hot air. i think another 6" fan on top will suck the air n heat out but the smell may be too much
