I have to say something about the Mighty Wash. I used an entire 1 qt. bottle up (as directed) on 3 plants and that shit would knock them done but they always came back. week after week of spray and every week I was killing the bugs, but the eggs seemingly didn't get dead. I switched to neem oil and 2 applications and they were never to be seen again. That shit kills mites, aphids and I'm sure a lot of other bugs. Also worth noting: my plants are outdoor/greenhouse plants. I only used the Neem in veg, btw. I am not so sure I would use the neem in flower. Your shit may taste like onions and garlic, not to mention there may be some hidden health risk smoking it....:/ anyway,

good luck.

IF you hit them with mighty wash they die, no question, even the eggs but you HAVE to hit them.

Well I used the habenaro method and it seemed to work really good! I sprayed them down the next night with water and then used the mighty wash the next night. Everything seems to be doing great so far!

Mighty wash works great. You need to spray under leaves and top. Give it 3-4 days for eggs to hatch but not lay more. Spray agin. 3-4 days another. You should be free. I spray every 2-4 weeks if I need to or not. I get the 2.5 gallon for $80? Might last a grow. But it's cheep compared to a failed crop

Turn your fan off and watch temps. Water then take them up to just over 100F for about 2 hours.

also when u spray plants start at the bottom (base) then work your way up under leaves first then top, if u start anywere else u risk bugs running n hiding in the soil an d just for mean while i would vacum the webs off with a vacum hose attactchment

Ya it seems to be working well, haven't seen a mite crawling around yet! And yes, water ...I sprayed them down to get the habenaro spray off before using mighty wash to avoid any unwanted harm by mixing them.

regular maintenance with mighty wash, in some cases all you can ask for is extreme control.

Stay on those bastards heavy foliage makes it harder to get everything it's expensive but use generously sometimes I go thru the garden wait Until it starts drying and hit em again in severe cases then every few day's after that stuff works great I swear by it .good idea with the rinse off I used a day after a foliar feeding with magic green once and turned some leaves into crispy critters .
