Reduce the temperature, too, as that will slow down their reproductive rate which will allow you more time to eradicate.I kinda freaked myself out, I walked into my veg area and noticed a spider web on one of my plants, no biggie right....then i see all these little white specks moving around :mad:
sooooo, im hoping its more controllable than i think it is and i'm just over stressing it.
my floor is concrete, so i flooded it with a neem oil/water/pesticide over the entire floor. I sprayed all of the plants plants thoroghly with neem oil at a mixture of 9ml of neem per gallon of water
My flower room is still clean, i run 1500 ppm co2 and its kept between 70-83 degree's.
If I spray my plants daily with neem oil at this mixture can I effectively eradicate the mites? If they are kept in check will they still kill my yield?
No harm, it evaporates too quickly. You should include a surfactant, perhaps a few drops of Dawn dish soap, or Dr. Bronner's (I like organic, but it's fucking $10/qt where I am, too expensive, Ivory is just as good). Just a LITTLE. Or, if you're worried about soapy flavor or residue, then go with JMS Stylet oil.does 50/50 isopropyl alcohol have no effect on the plants? I know I read to change what you are spraying frequently because they become resistant to whatever you are using-- so that would be another available option for me to alternate to
I use OxiDate, and I don't recall instructions for treating mites of any sort.
whats your eradication method
I run a perpetual unfortunately. I ordered 18,000 lady bugs. My flower room is air conditioned and has co2. right now, while I wait on my lady bugs, I have no pest stick strips everywhere and am going to do a second spray of everything tomorrow night.
I am considering buying a 10x10 tent and putting it in the back of my flower room so it will be both climate controlled and have co2. If I keep seeing spider mites after all that start doing 10,000 ppm co2 for an hour every other day for a week? Maybe 10 days?
Unfortunately I've never had a pest problem other than nats, I really was slacking on preventatives. Live and learn I guess.
