question for you guys. So I'm seeing lots different opinions and a healthy level of fear about these little devils. Is it true that they live on and will continue to feed on your flowers AFTER you harvest?? Can you harvest a healthy flower only to have it destroyed or damaged while hanging?
Where did you hear that?I've never seen these critters but if were talking about the same critters there's no harvest cuz the bugs kill the plant or flowers beginning week four
If you took the infested mother took a clone and dipped it fully in conserve sc won't that kill everything and then you don't have to ravage your clone onlys? And rebuild your stock. It's be a long break but some stuff cannot be popped again by seed og
I've had them, nasty little critters. Spinosad was somewhat effective, as I seen posted above. But what rid me of them was kontos used systemically.
Did your broad mites return or did you knock them out for good. We have them now and are thinking about throwing out all our trees and starting fresh. From what I've read these mites are hard to get rid of unless you start fresh. Here are some pictures of our trees will the Conserve SC save us, there in week 4 of veg View attachment 468425
I thought I was the only one who has a thing for those concrete mixing tubs. :)Well we just chopped down the whole room and going to bleach & fog , 3 co2 tanks, avid, forbid everything. Also going to heat to 120f the room for a couple of hours. I think if we do all this they should be gone. The way we received them was two clones we purchased from Medicine Man in Denver. We will be restarting by poping seeds. No more clones from outside sources. It's getting bad out there. View attachment 468937
Cold. Make it below 55 if you can kills everything then the temp wing up could help. Sucks to hear about yyr clones dude.

Now i won't go quoting this I'll find it first and I'm also notorious for reading shit and not finding it again..... but I read a post about hemp russets do not mutiply or hatch below 60 degree weather. So you cold set them into sleep and then once it hits the 75-90 area they all hatch because they need to and then the room heats up to 120 or so and kills all the living mites no eggs left because they needed to hatch and the mites are gone.Are you certain about that? I've read plenty about heat, but not about cold (think: overwintering).
I see this is a old tread but figured this would help someone fighting these things@altimood
Any chance you have any more research time or advice to offer on this topic?
Myself as well as another member on here have been fighting russets for the last week
I may have won with met52 ec, but am not done learning if you have some knowledge to drop
How much soap and stuff per gallon did you use? How unhappy were the plants afterwards?I see this is a old tread but figured this would help someone fighting these things
I have had luck using diatomaceous earth .
fill a baby powder container and coat the whole plant . pot and all
only in veg . wait 3 days then mix sm-90 with neem and dishsoap
most importantly , use really hot water mix in the pump sprayer
rinses of the d/m and treat those cut up suckers all in one
predatory bugs wont eat them before you loose everything
and azamax ,avid , neem alone , bombs etc. don't do anything to them at all
this method scratches them up , gums them up , sm-90 has sulfur , the hot water finishes them . they are heat sensitive . this is the only thing that worked for me after several crops were destroyed .
