35 days flower 12/12 .. plan on harvesting around day 60. Safe to place a bomb in their over night? I've heard it can effect taste.. I still plan on flushing with straight water the last week..


Any opinions greatly appreciated...

Don't know about that brand, but pyrethrums break down quickly. I doubt you could taste it after a few days. If you were worried about it, misting down the plants with water a few hours later should wash off the residue and still give time to kill the mites.

What i'm more concerned about is that its a 2 oz bottle and i'm only looking at about 4x78x sq ft... It says up to 3000 SQ feet and commercial. I don't want overkill .. also.. the instructions on the bottle aren't too clear.. I'm assuming its just a push down mechanisim that locks into place, but not entirely sure. It was fairly expensive so I don't want to make a mistake

you may want to dilute it if you bought commercial spray. I used the foxfarm version of this spray in veg and it only sticks around for a matter of hours. It does get the job done as far as mite killing goes. Find out the right concentration and spray in my opinion.

He can't dilute it, it's a one shot 'bomb'. I don't think it will be a problem, especially if you rinse after.

The bomb will get the live mites, but you'll need to treat again for the eggs. Maybe a week or 10 days after. Good luck, and Death to the Borg!

You can actually use it without causing it to all disperse. Your best bet is to spray each plant. Wear a mask when doing this, and maybe even some protective eye wear.

Azamax vied used it for years an it's super good an I'm pretty sure it's organic. Plus you can use with water when you feed an your plant should repel the mites. I've never tried the drench personally but sounds good.
