i noticed that i have a might problem last night. i about 2 weeks into budding, and i'm wondering what the best method to deal with them is. i've only had a problem one other time and i used pyrethryian spray, and a the plants didnt like it. any help would be great. i want to take care of this today

thx in advance

Use only WATER! Get yourself a sprayer from home depot or lowes. If your already infested, then spray once a day for 5 days. After that,spray once every 3 days for two weeks, then you should make it a habit to spray your plants with water once a week! If you do this, you will not have to deal with spider mites! Spider mites live and thrive in a dry environment! They hate being sprayed with water, but your plants will love it! Not only do they hate it, but it kills them! You will have to make sure that their is enough ventilation to allow your plants and the areaaround them to dry up in between sprayings. you do not want the excess water from the spraying to sit and make a humid environment, you will have other problems! Make sure your spraying drys within a couple hours after you spray! Do not wipe the water up, you might spread the mites somewere else and allow them to reinfest your garden! They will die in a matter of minutes , so allow the room or area to air dry, a fan works best after spraying, just make sure their is good ventilation and your set!
