I got your answer 100%.

Don't use Neem. All bad. Your concentrates will not even be smoke-able. Put that shit away.

Your only option at this point, is essential oils. I know, hippy bullshit right? Wrong. Do yourself a favor, order up 15 ml of the best organic essential oil you can find. I like Pure Organic from GNC or Doterra does good as well. With that infestation, I would put 25 drops per gallon. You can choose any oil really, however so far into flower I might choose a citrus smell like orange, lemon or tangerine. Spray the tops, bottoms of every leaf, stem and branch. Essential oils are slightly hard on plants, but 100% safe up to the day of harvest. Some say it adds terps, but we are not adding that much after dilution.

Either that or toss everything and start again. That infestation is really bad, and should have been caught a long time ago.

You keep spraying them farther into flower and your end up with mold, or bud rot probably. And they spray in your bud. A lot of these sprays that say you can use upto harvest are talking about fruit and veggies. Products that you can wash and eat, not BURN. There's a big difference to chemicals once you heat them.

If they all look like that its a total loss.. you need to carefully cut those buds out and take them to a fire.

#1 why are you flushing at week 6?
#2 how bad is the infestation?
#3 spider mites are manageable.
#4 never cut and run when a bug presents itself it is always manageable.
#5 there are many ways to manage these pests that invade our gardens. It takes the growers knowledgeand and power on how to manage these pests.
#6 there are many ways to remove these spiders naturally. Hobenero spray is what I used to use. Cheap and easy to use. Time is of an essence for me these days so I have discovered an all natural mite killer that is amazing (not an advertisement post). It works and is extremely expensive. Green cleaner, I was amazed at the results it also kills powdery mildew.View attachment 674221

I have been using green cleaner a year and absolutely love it. But recently I had my product tested and an organic compound PBO got flagged, My understanding is this is in green cleaner. Oregon testing standards. I have never had this problem in the past. usually don't need to spray past week 6 or 7.

I don't understand what you are asking. The PBO I mention is used in many pesticides to vessel the actual pesticide and make it stick to plants n such, harmless by itself. Had some solid knowledge dropped on me about the flower retaining some spray in itself , unlike fruit and vegetables that can be rinsed. I made the mistake of spraying past week 6, I usually stop after week 5, even with the natural sprays I use. Good lesson in the book. Preemptive action is the best against pests, and knowing when to spray/ not spray. Thank you for the input every one. Happy Gardening!
