Need experienced help! If your not sure then dont even post thanks.

Ok here is my situation. I spent a tremendous amount of money out of pocket to start my room. The goal is to get all my money back in my first grow, which is reasonable. I have a 12x10 room in which I have a 4x8 secret jardin orca grow tent. Then outside of the tent i have a 4x12 area which was scrogged but i removed the scrog for the time being and am just lst'ing them. The problem is i some how got spider mites. So the the plants that were veging in the tent are now in the 4x12 outside the tent and the tent is empty. I have 48 clones in the cloning machine that will be ready in 10 days to go back into the tent. The plants in the 4x12 have been in flowering for 1week besides the 1 cherrybomb auto that is about 3 weeks from finishing. Lights are all air cooled. and havnt got around to using c02 yet. I have floramite, avid, forbid 4f. I try to spray these fuckers but when i think they are gone they just keep coming back. I guess my issue is i want to be able to put these clones in the tent but i dont want to be fighting mites indefinately. I cant afford to not run them because how much of my savings i spent to get this room going. What can i do to get rid of these fuckers and not interrupt my grow?

Either use a systemic killer (spinosad) or contact killer (mighty wash) or both and switch back and forth. Yank the flowering plants except the one thats almost done and treat all plants and clean entire room before even thinking about flower.

It's really not hard to get rid of them, use the right stuff and clean the shit out of the room with bleach, you could also shut the room down and hang a no pest strip for a week or two while your treating your vegging plants just to be sure, dunking the plants in proper strength preventatives work too.

Let me guess, you bought "bug free" clones lol

youre more likely to get better responses if you dont add the "dont even post thanks" it comes off rude making the community unwilling to help

I have no intention of being rude, though as i stated if you dont know then dont post. I cant afford to take advice when its a guess. I have spend 10,000 dollars of my savings building a room and cant afford to spend more when i dont have too. its not hard to spend 4-5k alone on a good ac unit... have already spend 350.00 on floramite avid and forbid as i was told they were best on the market.

can anyone vouche that spinosad is more effective than floramite, avid, forbid 4f?

no spinosad is not that good for spidermites, the others you used are systemic and take time to work. they don't kill on contact and the mites also build a resistance to them, hang a bunch of these in your room, they really do work http://www.homedepot.com/p/Hot-Shot-2-29-oz-No-Pest-Insect-Strip-HG-5580-6/100004739

I have had pests but never spider mites in my grow. Being a one time surveyor allowed me to bring home every sort of too small to see crawling creature you can imagine. Left alone they would take over everything. The solution was Eucalyptus Oil spray. Anything that crawls hates it and its fumes . At 2 drops per quart of water it is very cheap. Clean your area then spray everything except your plants and soil, soak cotton balls, put in soda caps and place in your container. It doesn't kill them they just leave. I can't say it will drive them off the plants but at $4 for gallons it's worth a try. I would also check to see if the plants will tolerate powdered mustard spray(yard grass doesn't mind it) or nicotine tea. I have used these things with success, just not on pot plants. Good luck.

$10k on the room and you wont shut down the battle for a couple days to win the war?

Not sure what being a hvac tech has to do with fair spending but i agree with the above, slow your roll and read up on others

I've personally used mountain dew to combat mites with some success. I honestly recommend pulverizing one (1) fun size bag of red hot cheetos and mixing it in there (mites fucking hate cheetos.)

I have another recipe that calls for mentos, but it's a bit more advanced. PM or tag me in this thread if you want that recipe. You shouldn't need it though, the cheetos, especially the hot ones, they really do the trick!

What ever you do beware of their EGGS. If you don't stay on top of it until every egg is hatched and HASNT laid more eggs you'll never win the war! Off the top of my head I don't know of anything safe to use that will kill them AND the eggs in one shot. Read up you need to follow a regime and don't trust your eyes. It only takes one egg and no attention and in 2 weeks you'll be right back where you started. Only they'll be building up tolerance making it even harder to wipe them out.

I know from experience and I trusted my eyes. That only made my battle longer and harder. If I see them again it won't be anywhere near as bad. I've learned my lesson. Vigilance is the key and switching products help.

i'm not sure

Dude 10k you should have sealed your room and made a decontamination entrance... They came from somewhere. Plywood and caulking keeps everything out. Sound like you were eager beaver and thought your 4k air unit would just spit out colas.
