Bud wash due to spider mites in late flowering

Sup guys, hope ya'll good. Been referring to rollitup for quite some time started a account just now.

Just wanted some info. I got 3 plants that's close to Harvest, Damm spider mites came and took over. I made on a pepper spray with ginger and cayenne pepper, used a bit of warm water, still no help. I bought these biopersi+ things aswell that is supposed to solve the problem but nada.

I was thinking of bud washing after harvest as thays the only thing I can think of to get rid of the mites and eggs and shite. Does anyone recommend anything or think that a budwash would do the trick?

Many thanks fam.

That's depressing. I throw all that shit away. I couldn't sell bug shit to my friends.

I tried a bud wash for my first time on my 2 plants that were outdoors. I used 3 clean 5 gallon buckets. 1 bucket had a little warmer than room temperature water with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of baking soda per gallon of water. The other 2 were filled with cold water. Cut the branches around 12” long and swirl them around in the cleaning solution for about a minute, then in each rinse bucket for about 30 seconds each. I then dried water off the branches before putting them in the drying room.

here's a guide that might help. looks like the same method as @smoke and coke but with a higher concentration of lemon juice and baking soda. good luck!

Hi buddy, was the results good ? Perhaps I'll try to this

It worked really well.
I had set up a dehumidifier in the garage set to 50% prior to the wash. Hung them in there with a fan gently blowing around them for maybe 2 hours so the water was dry, then hung in a room at 60% RH for 2 weeks.
I would definitely do it again on my outdoor grows.
