predatory mites vs spider mites?

so...how long do i have to wait until the predatory mites knock the spider mites down? what is a time frame for this war? i'm five weeks in to flower and the spider mite infestation doesn't seem too bad yet. prognosis? suggestions?

obviously this response is a bit late, but just so you know; predator mites usually take about 4 weeks to catch up to the population of two-spotted mites depending on the level of infestation when the mites are first noticed. of course there are variables such as temp and humidity that contribute to that timeframe and also the type of predator mite you have released. there are three types of predator mites and each one likes a different environment. in the future, you can release lady bugs or pirate bugs and they immediately begin feeding on the mites. however, mites are not their favorite food, but if there is nothing left but mites they will eat them.

there is a very good thread about mites here: https://www.rollitup.org/bugs/372981-removing-preventing-spider-mites.html
