I just noticed some mites show up on my crop and im already 3 weeks into flower. Im growing a strain that takes about 7.5 weeks to finish and Im wondering what you guys think about treating with Floramite this far into flower.

I have never sprayed floramite this far in but considering I have about 28 days left I think the residual chemicals should be gone by the time I harvest.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

If it is spider mites why not get some ladybugs? Just spray the girls with water to knock them off and get some ladybugs to kill the mites.

i would spray with floramite if i was you.

If it makes you feel better only use it at 75% strength.

You have about 4 weeks left of growing time. Plus hanging it to try for 7 days, then the cure. If there is any residue left it would be very minimal. And if your concerned about the residue of a non-toxic miticide you shouldn't be smoking because its harmful to the lungs, mouth, and throat.

What may be toxic to one organism wont effect another. Flormaite destroys mites but wont do any harm to ladybugs. Its actually most toxic to fish more than anything for some odd reason.

Lots of growers use floramite in conjunction with predatory insects and it they only kill a very small % of the beneficial insects.
