How to treat spider mites in flower?
Voltron1started grow question 3 years ago
Best spider mite treatment while in early flower? I want to completely knock these things out, but I'm losing the battle.
There are no webs, but they're still present and you can see all the white marks on the fan leaves.
Please help!

What home remedy kills spider mites?
One easy method is to mix one part rubbing alcohol with one part water, then spray the leaves. The alcohol will kill the mites without harming the plants. Another natural solution to get rid of these tiny pests is to use liquid dish soap. The soap suffocates the mites without harming the plants where they live.

Might aswell throw the plants you will not kill all the mites and eggs you may think they're gone untill the eggs start hatching again mits build up a resistance to these products you spray on them so it depends what generation mites you got

You can try fighting spider mites with a predator mite. There are at least three species that will decimate a spider mite infestation without damaging your plants. You can buy some of these at a nursery or garden center.

I spray with a pump up weed sprayer. A little dawn soap and water, and blast the underneath of every leaf then the top sides. Repeat as necessary. Spray just before lights out or after lights out. Cheers

translucent pest in soilHi, last watering I've seen tiny translucent insects (about 1 mm) emerging from the soil. They are fast and can jump like a flea. I assume they live in soil. What are these little monsters, should I worry about them and what should I do ? TIA

First Grow 4 weeks into Veg - Let my humidity get too high for 1 night. Need help with mold/septoria/?Last 3 days I've pruned diseased leaves every morning, foliar sprayed peroxide leaves & topsoil, & added some to watering solution. Is only affecting one plant in tent. Humidity no longer issue (was waiting 4 inline fan). If I keep pulling off leaves it's going to die anyway.

Spider mitesSo it turns out the Thrips were not Thrips at all they are bloody spider mites. Noticed them feeding on nematodes after spraying. Predator mites on there way and sprayed with an 1-8 iso mix. Now should i rinse the plant with just water before adding the predators?Week 9

Should I scrape the scoops of chem?Definitely has thrips and has been through the wringer. Trashed the other four plants I started it with when I bought 9/30. This plant shouldāve been harvested by now but I kept stringing it along and causing it problems.
Itās the middle of the three plants in the flower tent.
