Hey guys I have a tiny spider mite problem going on it my grow tent, I didn't have mites originally but when I received clones from somebody they gave them to me on their clones. I have 8 plants 4 of which are clones like I said, the clones are the only plants with a small small number of mites on them, I don't wanna let the little bastards lay more eggs and replicate. I ordered azamax and it came in the mail today, I was reading the directions but they didn't make enough sense to me, If I am using a spray bottle that is 750ML how much azamax do I put into the spray bottle? and when should I treat the plants? when the lights go off or while they are still on? Any input would be awesome!

Spray at less than 400w or in the dark if you can. I usually do a combo of a foliar spray mixed with a soil/medium drench to kill the eggs as well. Spraying will only kill the bugs that are at their leaf and stem climbing phases, eggs and larvae/small insects in the medium wont be so affected.

Sorry bare with me because I am a noob @ this but what do you mean by spray at less than (400w)? and my lights flip off @ midnight should I do it then or an hour before they come on @ 5am?

Haha, all good man my bad. I mean if you do spray when the lights are on, make sure its under less than 400w HID lighting or else it will burn your leafs. I prefer to spray before the lights come on because they will dry out, versus spraying before a long, cold, generally higher humidity night. I have 1000w, but I turn the ballast down to 400w before I spray.

Haha okay that makes sense then, i dont have an hid light though im using a hydro farm t5 4 bulb 4 ft light So i dont think it can burn leaves. But i will for sure do it at 5am before the lights kick on at 6.
