lady bugs. You can usually find plenty of them certain times of the year. Just makes sure not to pick one of the varieties that actually eat plants. Fall, and spring are both good times to find them around.
I have the same problem, i have an investation but it isnt massive yet. Got 4 plants uder a 250 HPS lamp on 12/12 and is on about 5 weeks into flower. have jst ordered 2000 Natural Predators (phytoseiulus persimilis).
would like to know if anyone has used these before so late into flowering?

So yo take some cigs, put it in the water, then let it sit for couple of hours, so the really toxic chemicals are out, and then add some liquid soap....and voila, you are ready to fight those fucker..Its a really efective way, belive me mann....

did you leave that mixture in a bowl and let it fume the room or did you spray it directly, i would like any more natural way of killing theses gits because im only maybe 2 weeks from harvest of the church and maybe 3 weeks for the cheese, this is the reason why i ordered 2000 Natural Predators (phytoseiulus persimilis) has anyone used these before and know what to expect
cheers guys

I have a infestation of spider mites late into flowering maybe week 5, got 4 plants under a 250 HPS and the two cheeses seem to be affected the most, they are not making webs yet but i believe its only a matter of time. I have dropped the temp misted and cleaned leaves as much as i can with water. I have jst ordered 2000 Natural Predators (phytoseiulus persimilis) but have never used them before, has anyone used theses before and know what to expect

I've sacrificed a few lower branches and leaves to get rid of these bastards, just keep close watch and take out a good amount of time to get up under your plant and inspect all the leaves. I've had good luck with the tobacco/soap combo too....
