GMSgrowsanswered grow question 3 years ago If you look under the leaves with a magnifying glass, if there are mites there you will see them. A little dawn soap in water and a weed sprayer with a wand, you can start at the bottom of each branch and spray upwards under each leaf. Try to avoid directly spraying the buds, doesn't hurt them but I don't know if taste would remain. I spray young buds if needed but haven't with older buds. This will smother the mites and just the eggs left after that. Few treatments and the mite problem is under control. Cheers
