Zeus - Nice to see you too bro :smile:
Glad to hear from ya...will be nice to see you settled in soon :wink:
Stop in anytime man
Core - :smile: I figured you knew what was up...I guess I should have explained myself better in my previous post
But now everyone knows 
I got the damn Spider Mites. It's been a year now off and on. Tried no-pest strips, sticky traps, insecticidal soap, bug bomb, Safers Trounce, raised humdity + foliar water spraying, sticking the plants outside in sub-zero weather
and now even DE. Every method was successfull for a limited time...well besides the DE so far, but I need to further experiment.Thing about spider mites...they don't do as much damage to your plants as one would expect. Most of the damage is aesthetic. Nevertheless something you don't want on your plants and in your grow area
Sorry you're not diggin the BM
Just think of the poor unfortunate folk out there that have no weed to smoke because they are too scared to reclaim their human civil rights and grow some 
I noticed you seemed a little uninterested in your grow as of late
chin up bro...always better days ahead, probably some worse too...but that's besides the point. You'll be back riding giant colas through your grow room in no time

very nice grow, interesting strains, bookmarked!
well i dont know if t is in any intrest but i managed 2 kill off springtails and thrips with just neem oil and pyrethrum...i realy dont know if this would work on mites but if i where you id ask around...pyrethrum is all biological
ohw and ...i had bugs come back just coz i did not clean the intire room....the thrips would be even behind a false wall taking shelter...damn buggers ...
mmmh ..its there loss TML...its there loss...coz of the damn cannabis laws
..
it will come back ...it woz't gone but i need 2 regroup the energy :wink:

Hi TML, so you have spider mites hey? Bad news, the only way I ever managed to get rid of them was to take cuts and put them into a coca cloner, to keep the humidity way above what the little buggers like, and take the rest of the larger plants and bin em. The clean up, then rinse off the roots of the clones and put em into new soil. That seemed to do the trick, but it's a bit drastic.

This may seem like a weird trick but it really works. Try soaking some cigarette buds in water for 24 hours (3 buds per liter), then spray it on the leaves, haven't had spidermites yet but it works like a charm for most pests i've encountered so far.
Good tip Matsuva, I've heard of that as well. Go figure cigarettes kill insects too lol who would of thunk it 
TML, you could always try that do it yourself mite spray, I'm thinking of mixing up a batch just to see what I can kill with it lol I have a bunch of earwigs on my deck and they're days are numbered!!!
Take care man.

TML16 said:You should hear the sweet vocal harmonies of BR, Dr Dog, and MGJ!They sound like Chronic, Buds, and Hash....
That is pretty good, I have been in and out of bands for years doing vocals
T bro, I am going to have to sit down and read the last 10 pages of your thread again, I am missing something here, so I will make a proper post tomorrow
All out war
All out war
Hey Guys
matsuva - Thanks alot man :smile:
Glad you're enjoying the grow and strain selection
Thanks for the tips! :smile:
I have been thinking of going the nicotine route. Black Ra1n posted a great recipe pages back in this thread, and I think it's about time i cook up a batch and add it to my weapon arsenal.
Only reason I havn't tried it before is the dangers it poses
Can harm yourself and any small animals you have in your house.
Your posts are appreciated...hang out anytime
Core - I found neem to be quite expensive and heard it works better as a preventative rather than eliminater.
The safers "Trounce" I have is pyrethrum based. I also used a pyrethrum bomb before I left on vacation. It cleared them out for a bit...but they came back
I will be cleaning the room again thoroughly tommorrow and wiping the floors and walls with insecticidal soap.
I'm at complete war with these buggers now and I won't stop till they're dead
GMT - Your advice is always appreciated :smile:
Drastic indeed but...you're right, in the end it may come down to the final solution.
I really can't afford to stop growing my own though is the biggest problem. I'm going to try a full out barrage of every product I can get my hands on at once and constant.
If I can't ditch them by winter that will be the only solution left
Thanks eh :smile:
Black Ra1n - I'm going to go back and find that recipe you left me It's time to break out the big guns
Thanks alot bro :smile:
Dr Dog - I didn't know you were a musician too We'll hafta jam sometime 
I can't see you missing much. You've been here the whole time. We're just discussing the many ways to kill mites and how those little buggers can evade death so well.
Death to the Borg!

War with the Mites!
MGJ left me a good PM today with some great tips
I'm going to full out barrage these plants.
Today...I did the veg box.
I cleaned it all out and then wiped it all down using insecticidal soap. I then spread a thin layer and dusted the Diatomaceous Earth all across the bottom of the box getting the cracks and corners especially well.
I sprayed all plants down with Insecticidal soap, which the veg plants havn't got in a long time since I was strictly using "Trounce" for the veggers.
This should be a good change up and shock for their immune systems.
I'm going tommorrow to get some no-pest strips. One will be hung in the flower room, and 1 by the veg box.
I'm going to brew up some nicotine juice too and spray both the early flowering plants and the vegging plants. That will take a few days to brew up.
Tommorrow will be a complete clean-up of the flower room. I will wash all floors and walls down with insecticidal soap.
Between Safers "Trounce" (pyrethrum), Safers Insectcidal soap, Nicotine death spray, no-pest strips, a new prodect I've yet to buy and add Raised humidity, foliar water mistings, and Diatomaceous Earth all employed at the same time.
We'll see if it can finally wipe these buggers out
Thanks for all your visits, tips, and support Great source of info this IC can be

Oh oh - might the mites have inflammed TMLs passions... Have the mites brought out the Hun in out good friend? I sense preparations for a siege - a siege on mites!
You've definitely got the right idea TML - the important thing is constancy - you gotta keep after the buggers. I have no doubt you will overcome....

MGJ - You're damn right No more lazy Mr.nice guy...I'm prepared for battle
Thanks for having confidence in me, your support and help is greatly appreciated
Zeus - No biggie dude....I know you're in between things right now. Glad you still make time to stop by and see all your friends here at IC :friends:
I'm all over those bastards right now!
Thanks for your concern :smile:
Insomniac - I think the nicotine juice will be a deadly weapon too
I havn't made it up yet. Going to wait till I harvest PS-2 and get the big stuff out of the way. I'm sure I'll eliminate quite a few just by choppin her down.
I just visited the veg space and found no evidence of living mites I tried some up close pics on the leaves too. I don't think my camera is good enough to capture a mite anyways Sorry bud.
You can look them up on google...plenty of pics of mites.
Thanks for the visit bro :smile:

Seedlings Debut
Heres the first look at the seedlings...we got TW x StrawD's up front and we got the PB's in the back. The TW x StrawD on the right is a little runty and has a small birth mark.
I also have a pic of Pacific Shark-C here. It's the clone that is still in veg and the one I'm definately sure it was from PS-1 of last grow (the WW looking pheno)
It was the runtiest and latest rooting clone and thus decided it's longer veg time waiting for the sativa to finish. She's growing well now
As you can see, she has some mite damage too, but they are easily controlled on her as long as BB momma is around. They like her better. They seem to leave seedlings alone too
_____________________________________________________________________________________
All is quiet in the Veg cab. I can't find any adults scurrying about. So..phase 2 is about to begin. Kill them while they hatch!
I just used water to mist them a few times today...gonna go back and spread somemore DE in a few hours.
Flower room has been cleaned It's not getting quite the special attention till PS-2 is harvested...then the full out war is declared in there too.
Hope you all enjoyed the update

that is too bad about the mites bro, I see them all over the area on plants other than weed, and have heard some stories about it as well from other local growers, but they have yet to find my hidden garden.
My seedlings are pretty much the same as yours, they are just getting ready to show some new leaves, One died on me from the Mumbles strain, just fell over, by the time I noticed it, was too late
