Ok....I'm by no means the authority on defeating the BORG. But I will tell you what I did this run and it definitely worked for me.
Didn't know that about spraying the same thing twice. Thanks for the advice!
I noticed that the little fuckers had moved into my room again while I was still in veg. I hit them with
forbid and saturator. I then hung up two No Pest Strips in the room. Three days later I hit them with
Avid and saturator. I haven't seen a mite since.
It's not recommended that you spray with the same thing twice on a crop. Thats how they develop a resistance. I have 6 different things in my arsenal.
Floramite,
Forbid,
Avid,
Neem oil, Mitey wash, and
Azamax. I rotate things out.
Seamaiden has a really nifty way of dealing with the Borg as well. I believe it's something like this, but search her posts and find it verbatim.....
Put bamboo stakes near your plants and turn fans on the plants bigtime. The mites will seek out the stableness of the bamboo. Everyday wipe the bamboo with a rag drenched in a miticide (
forbid,
avid,
floramite).
If you get deep into flower and they are still there then get yourself some predators.
