Spider Mite Treatment that may or may not harm a plant?

So yesterday I was at my outdoor crop and noticed my blueberry was infested with these fuckers, but some how none of my others so I was looking up all these ways to treat em, I had no materials, and my plants can't be moved cuz they're in the ground.

I found a "nicotine water," tryed that but the tobacco was getting stuck in the sprayer tube.

I decided to try my own idea and threw a 45 gallon (i think) trash bag over my shit, tied up the bottom, poked a hole in the top and threw a straw in it... for 20 minutes i was nonstop smokin either bud or a cigg and blowing it into that bitch.

left it on as i finished watering took it off and VUELA! dead spideys dead spideys!

don't know if it killed the eggs or all of them but i'm planning on doing it again tomorrow morning before the sun comes out enough

as for the plant it didn't look harmed at all, maybe a little more perky but the only thing really noticable was the top nug squished just a tad

I'd like to know what you think or if I may be doing something harmful to the plant I don't know so please let me know!

thanks

You will prob. hear several propagated claims on tabacco smoke and your plant. The main being carcinegens. First they will say it can cause "stress" that harm your plant. Second they will tell you that it will cause your weed to taste bad. Both are not true. Many known carcinegens are made by plants and are harmful to humans. Main danger of carcinegen is cell proliferation "cancer". It disrupts the metabolic reactions. In plants, it does not do this primarly due to the plants metabolic process: its oxidazation of the carinegan renders it a non factor. If anyone suggest otherwise, ask them to explain to you, in detail, how it harms the plant. They more than likely will call you dumbass for not taking the advice of his cousins grandmas dealers wisdom, and move on without any explanation.

What could be harmful is the build of tar and other substances on the surface of leaves, blocking/clogging them and making them less effective. If your a smoker, then you know how tar builds up on shit that is around where you smoke. Plants do have the ability to "clean" the surface of the leaves but its not a faster process.

I think you might be on to something. What you are doing is blowing co2 on the plant, while in the process of sufucating the spider mites to death. The plants perks up, the mite die. Not bad at all. If not over done, then I cant see why it wont be effective. Mites have an average life cycle of 18 days or so. so lets assume that you killed all the adults but not the eggs. For the smoke treatment to be success you will need to treat prob for about 14 to 21 days. Maybe every third day admin the smoke treatment. Be mindful of the leaves and watch them closely. If you can see and rub "brown" substance of the surface, the smoke it too much and you should stop.

Let me know how this turns out for you. Love the idea.

thanks yeah i sprayed the dead ones off with some water and what not but i think i might do it at night so i can cover it then i can wash it off pretty well after doing it when the suns not up so it won't burn

That sound like a very good idea. You test for smoke build up picking a healthy leaf, sticking it in a bag, and giving it the smoke treatment. Take the leaf out, let it air out, and repeat until you can see tar build up. This will give you a good idea how many times you can do the treatment before it becomes harmful to the plant. A live leaf that is respirating, getting treatment spread out of over a few days would prob handle it better and take longer to get a build up, but like I said, it would give you an idea.

lol i already did that it took like 5 ciggs for 1 leaf to start gettin build up
