I got most of mine the other day my lights come on in an hour so I am spraying to day before they do. today will be 1 lb habanero, 2 tbsp A.C. Vinegar , and 2 tbsp Lemon Juice. I hope you got some of the rain I know most of the state is worse off than me here. my old house hasn't seen a drop in 2 months now.

I've been fortunate so far and not had to deal with those little fuckers yet. fingers crossed it stays that way.

Feel free to ship them leftovers man. I don't mind cooking but a day where I don't have to cook is awesome.

I've said before my method was pepper spray like 4-5 days in a row and some defoliation. I had used mighty wash too but that shits so expensive.

Well the little buggers are in there eating mites already so I'm holding off on any other treatments. Should be flipping to 12/12 in the next couple of days :-) is gonna be a full screen.

I've used mitey wash, neem (though it's mainly a preventative than a killer), acids/chems, predators... just the thing... i've never been able to get every last one.. even when i just about killed them all and things start to get back to normal... next thing i know 2-4 weeks down the line the one microscopic little bastard that was hiding under the pot or something reproduced to make a thousand more tiny things and it starts all over. like a fucking cancer.

i got em off a clone i had gotten off of craigslist. a Las Vegas Lemon Skunk clone. such a tasty strain that i wish i got to finish... but i tossed her... and poo poo... my room was never the same

i hope to see you beat these bastards! like i said, if you find a cure... it's a million dollar cure like a cure for cancer!

best of luck duder

Once the cancer (mites) goes into remission is when you stay preventative. The only times I ever have any kind of bug issue is when I get comfortable and stop being preventative. We will know for sure in a week if extra attention is needed,,, I doubt it will be. With 1k predators applied at worst 500 made it,,, that means at worst they have already eaten 2,500 mites or 10,000 of their eggs,,,,, at worst.
The key (imo) is catching it early and hitting them with more than a sufficient number of predators.
So in one work week they (at worst) will eat (kill :eyesmoke: ) 12,500 mites or 50,000 eggs,,, well thats not even counting reproduction which they do twice as fast as the pesky spidermite.


Spider Mite Predatorsnot only feed on Spider Mites and their eggs, they also breed twice as fast! Each Spider Mite Predator sucks the juice out of about 5 Spider Mites a day, or 20 of their eggs. Used as directed, predators should noticeably begin to gain control within 4 weeks, and then continue until the Spider Mites are nearly or completely wiped out. Predators disappear when the Spider Mites are gone.

Nice whodat kitchen, ask for the "double mint heath chip shake 2 scoops with a side of waffle fries and 3$ in quarters" I should be out in a jiffy.

So does the pepper spray kill them or drive them away? Either way if it works its a much more economical way to go about it. Maybe I jumped the gun a bit? I got excited lol. Its bug wars come on,,,, even though theres actually allot at stake.


The plants are growing well, Im having to train them several times a day (wouldnt want it any other way) There is some wind burn going on with fan leafs hanging out but I want to pluck those off anyway to expose all these lil bud sites, I dont think Iv seen so many of em at once lol Lots of tucking and weaveing going on. I'll try and get a decent pic or two.

The Capsaicin oil kills on contact, the lemon juice and garlic are preventive, and the Apple cider vinegar is to kill mold and fugal spores. I spray pots walls everything. I eagerly await lights on as well, and no pics just are not the same. I will have a vidio update on tonight. Will be week 4 for the door, and week 5 1\2 in the cave. I am surprised by the wind burn on the leaves. I have not had any problems with this on either of my vertical rooms I have done.

It is like someone shot off some pepper spray in the house. I eat my food hhhhhhoooooottttttt, and have been exposed to CS gas in the military. It doesn't bother me, but it will f up my wife when I steep and spray it.
