And always have a quarantine space away from the big op for stuff you get from outside even if it's a clone from a friend that looks clean, a 2x2x2feet tent with a compact 45w twister CFL is enough to prevent a big loss and painful headache. Worth every penny and it saved my girls many times over the years.
Exactly my point, dude was killing himself, literally. He was sleeping in his grow rooms, too, so he was exposed to that shit 24/7. I started to notice a difference in his behavior so I came by and sprayed his plants for him with the Grow Safe.
No as I've stated many times before, I just found this stuff a couple of years ago, and it works so well I've been telling everyone about it. I'm a huge fan of Garden Safe brand Neem Oil Extract (does not contain azadirachtin like other neem oils, and works very well), but found this stuff and decided to give it a try since it's organic. I was blown away at how well it works, and it doesn't burn like neem oil. I'm just a former underground weed grower turned small "mom & pop" hemp farmer.
I just ordered a bottle.
I can say that GrowSafe seems to be working for me. I've sprayed twice now. I haven't seen any new damage from spider mites and the plants are doing well. If this product is as good as it seems, it'll be a big help for cannabis farmers. I have two small fruit trees in the back yard that insects like in late spring, so I'm thinking of using it on them next year.
Maybe just a rinse with a sprayer of clean water. The oil smell goes away pretty quickly by itself but yeah if you wanna rinse them before harvest you can.
Discord is really shady. Scammers promoting themselves and banning anyone that tells the truth. Had 2 orders from strainly and seed canary, both on verge of death from stem canker. They could have sent looking healthy and would have died in a few weeks infecting entire garden. My thoughts are since they only guarantee for a day, fake genetics that will never make it to point of identification. Also wondering if corporate cannabis/big brother pays them to wipe out small growers gardens to eliminate competition. Strainly is in cahoots with scammer sellers with flawed checkout that requires you to contact seller who sends invoice. Then when you get ripped off they blame victim, say tough crap, and refuse letting you leave honest feedback. Their sellers can also change names once a month. Seed canary was their own clones, noto vendors. RIU is in cahoots with strainly. Look at thread there with 9000 posts, almost all negative or strainly trolls posting drivel to make the honest posts harder to find. Just ordered from Seeds and Clones and Homegrown Nursery who appear to be service for CA commercial growers.
Eggs do not die and around 80F hatch in 3 to 5 days. Even for the easy to kill outdoor acquired mites 5 treatments 3 or 4 days apart is suggested
Bro, I was thinking this same shit. I saw other vendors dickriding this dude. When I called him out I got attacked. They tried to make me look like the bad guy. Then a group of them buried the thread in stupid memes and small talk so no one would be able to see the conversation. It was some Twilight Zone level shit that I witnessed. Cut Hut disappeared 2 days later.
Wish I had done that. Got a little bit of crap quality bud in 2 grows, and most molded from spraying so much. Wasted a year, Pissed since spent $1500 for Chimera #3, MAC1 cap cut, Fatso canarado, GG4, and 5 other top clones and did not get to enjoy any. Room did not even smell like bud at 60 days, when usually can smell GG4 outside. Research sellers, quarantine, treat new clones as if they have spider mites, dunking everyday for a minute for 3 weeks, and check for signs of mold infections. Without testing, large numbers of cuts taken from new plants dying before rooting is a sign of botrytis/fusarium/botrytis which will kill plant if conditions are right. Then there is HJVD to worry about. Good luck.
I read that thread back in the day. I even read the entire 1,000,000 page root aphid thread. I beat root aphids, but this is 10x worse. Maybe more.

That's a good resourceWould be great if you got a picture.
If planning a shutdown for awhile, might want to throw a few leaves in a mason jar to do experiments. Here are some products from first general search I did on broad mites. Might try heat treating area if in hot part of country. Would need heater without thermostat.
