this lady has a month left still maybe do something organic.
I did not know you could mix DE with water and spray it! And its killing em? Awesome!I choose this because they cant build up immunity to it. the dusting may not have been needed (there are no rules in war), however the spray seems to work great it well kill everything (I sprayed a moth while I was in there, it died instantly with the mites). I thinking rinse in 24 hours do this every 4 to 5 days (just the spray) and clean, bleach, bomb, repeat, repeat over and over again till I can possibly get a winter crop ready.
Me too.thanks for easing my mind about the dry stuff that was really scaring me
I'm treating my mothers, got to keep my genetics (they are infested)
(I am not recommending this for anyone else to try)
40 mil dr. Bronners unsented
6 heaping Tbsp. diatomaceous earth
gal of water
then I dusted them with diatomaceous earth
ill keep you posted and post pics
if I can eradicate them from my genetics and help someone else save there genes it would be worth documenting here.

hell yeah it kills everything living not sure on fungi, its essentially ground up coral wreath. the bible said you can mix it with water witch makes sense.
im not seeing anything on the dried buds either@Circle B
I am scopeing dry buds and trying to answer that question.
I scoped some that were hanging for 4 days and found a few still wiggling..
but most wernt moving anymore
and this morning, I scoped some fully dry jarred buds.(10 days from cut)
I cant find many bodies on em..and no movement.
I will keep looking and reporting..It seems like some one would already have done that
but I cant find any thing about it.
the damage doesn't seem to worsen while drying
Im thinking the mites dry up and fall off just like the leaves..
and thats what im seeing so far.
I think you might be right..I may have not be spraying enough of it.Ken, I really appreciate your recommendation and picture of the paint sprayer. I got a similar model and it has made a huge difference. But here's the thing- I do most of my spraying with the nozzle reversed because it puts more solution on the leaves/buds that I'm targeting. Using the nozzle in the normal direction does a really good job of fogging the plant and it puts a very fine layer of moisture on the canopy but it's not the most efficient way to fully spray to the point of some runoff. I usually try to hit the plant everywhere with the nozzle reversed and then I go around and fog it with the nozzle in the normal direction just to get any nooks and crannies that I might have missed. I just wanted to mention this to you because I am really surprised that the Conserve didn't work out better for you. The only thing I could imagine is that you weren't applying enough material. I'm using about a gallon per plant (more for bigger ones, less for smaller ones) and that's at 6 ml/gal. This immediately made my girls look much happier and lasted about a week before another spray was needed- way better than the duration for nasty forbid and avid sprays.
