spider mites late in flowering

Lady bugs or predator mites. they will eat the spider mites and leave when all the spider mites are eaten. you can order them online or find them at a nursery
I don't know that either lady bugs or predator mites would be able to establish themselves in time to do much good in 20 days. But I am no expert. I too have a mite problem and we're getting close to harvest time (30 days or so until chop). We've been doing neem oil sprays (pure neem, water, a few drops of Bronner's liquid soap) for the past few weeks now and it seems to have them under some degree of control. I wouldn't spray this stuff within 14 days of harvest, but if you're still 20 out I think I'd go for it. Just make sure you don't use too much neem...follow the directions!

Canadian express spray safe dissolves mites and theier eggs on impact, and can be sparyed during flowering. I've used it before on flowering plants, and it keeps them under control, but i could never get rid of mites just using it on its own. Lower temsp is the key to success, that and cleanliness.
these an other post where a guy got 1500 lady bugs for $9...i recon 2/3 packs= 3000/4500 lady bugs could do alot of mites in 20 days....you could just let them go another week...am not saying the lady bugs will kill them all but am sure they will do plenty of damage..it surely worth a shot ..+ its better than smoking neem oil and growing an exra ear on your forehead 20/30 year down the line lol...
good luck guys i wish you all the best in your WAR against the Borg..

depends how bad the infestation is buddy that late id probly just let them finish, maybe spray the leaves with plain water to wash some of em off/keep em at bay a bit til ur ready to chop, the mites wont hang around (excuse the pun) when the plants are chopped anyway!!
Max...I hate those krs...your in good hands with the advice ^^ above. But may I welcome you to IC and please make yourself at home. Looking forward to your posts and hope you get those bugers under control. DD
