at this point, you don't want to spray, esp with neem oil, imo. your best bet is to go to walmart, grocery section, where they have the bug sprays. look for hot shot's no pest strips. get two, put them or hang them close to your plant, and shut off your ventilation for about four hours.

the mite bastards will die.

it's weird babe; i went to wally here four times before i found them, and they had been right in front of me.

they come in a bag type package. it's a plastic bar with a yellow bar inside....

if you can't find them, let me know and i'll find somewhere online you can order.

if you can find pyrethrin bug bombs, they work great too.

the problem i have off ebay is they take 2 weeks to come nongreen and thats to long for me to wait already into 6 weeks flower and most likely be ready pretty soon...so ordering off net not really an option i need it asap..thanx all the same nongreen

Crompy how about saunders garden centres they might have an organic pest control or something similar ,i know they sorted my mate out with something the other day.
But i know how you feel our American friends seem to be able to get hold of anything.
