just realized I just adopted a bunch of spider mites with my new clones !!! They seem to be slow to take over the plants right now, I'll tell you how I conquer these foes :0

they are starting to spread all over my blueberryXnorthernlights, no webs yet. I neemed all my plants when I first got the clones as a preventative, and the growshop guy says that is why they are so slow to multiply, he also sold me a doktor doom fogger and said to foliar spray with azamax. I'll be fogging in a couple days and spraying three days later, I'll keep you all updated.

so I used the fogger, and it eliminated lots of the mites, but there were still a ton left. Three days later I used azamax as a foliar spray and a drench. I used 3 mL/gal in the drench and 4 mL/quart in the spray. The plants hated it (I'm assuming the drench), they used about a quarter of the water they normally use. It didn't seem to be working at first, but as I continue to check the plants I see more and more dead mites. I talked to the growshop guy and he said that that was normal and to wait a couple weeks to see full results.
The roots started looking horrible, a clear/white mucus formed on some of them and anything that wasn't in the water started looking brownish. After 5 days I changed the water out with RO water and mycorrizae and aquasheild and ionic root stimulator. They are liking this much more, though the mucus is still on the roots.
If there are still mites in another week I'll start using tobacco juice, azatrol, and may get floramite. I want to have this problem completely under control before I flower.
