didnt feel comfortable spraying chems in the buds.... and yea the ladies ate alot of mites, i wish i knew about avid/floromite though .way better then bugs. the ladies ate more then 1/2 but i still had webs and all kinds of bs.jipedestran said:when you say more, do you mean to an acceptable level?
because I just had mites and I went scorched earth. I lost an old MF, and a new Kona Mist. managed to hold onto two others in clone. Neemed the hell out of them, their life cycle is finished.
I was mite and pest free for seven years. (other than seasonal fungus gnats)
thats what happens when you introduce someone else's clones to your garden....
peace
