Okay, day 77 and "chop chop and wash wash" day for CJ and MA. Both smelling wonderful, MA is really fruity strain and frosty too. All leaves were covered with trichomes, I will make BHO and should be great return. BG needs 7-10 more days.

Anyone recommends what's then? I have neem oil, some pesticide, 70% and 96% alcohol, torch burner... What can I do with those spidermites when tent will be empty? I don't want same story next run.

Wash the tent with bleach solution .75 cup of bleach to a gallon of water. Good idea to clean the room also as best you can when to grow again, spray your plants with a solution of ISO alcohol and water. us 91% or 99% ISO if you can get it. Use .75L to a gallon of water and spray your plants with it. get the bottoms of the leaves also. Start this as soon as they have 2 sets of true leaves true leaves. Spray every 3 days till flower. You may have to continue into flower but the spray won't hurt your flowers.

It took me months to get rid of the damned mites! Don't stop spraying until your sure they are gone! I use alcohol as it leaves no residue on the plants like neem oil etc does and it does no damage to the plants because it evaporates quickly.

If I had an infestation like that is the only time I would use a pesticide in my house. This is some nasty stuff but it can get into places you just cannot reach but those little devils can! You need to be able to seal the room from the rest of your house and follow all of the other precautions to avoid any kind of exposure.

wow if you don't mind me asking how long did it take to get like that and is it all in 1 tent or a few I'm just very interested in how you got them and getting rid of them as I've seen people with them before but to a lesser extent

My favourite, CC, day 67





BB in 3L pot, day 53



BAM day 82, absolutely beast!! I cut top of two colas, they weight 150g, should be nice yield next week




BB day 53 in 5L medium



MD XXL, like SD on the left heavy damaged due to manual watering in autopot trays (read I forget about them for 3 days). MD XXL is okay, SD is over, but I have space and I will let her go till harvest.



And two Auto night queens at day 13, with some youngsters which I will not mention




Whole tent, sexy, right?

Great lookin set up!!!

Thank you all for answers.

If you wonder how many days have been to webbing... Well, it started with few infecteg leaves, and I was spraying with some carcinogenic pesticide from ebay. Under the leaves, on the coco, over the leaves... But two days later... it was a mess! Million more mites. Sprayed again. Nothing. Tried with vacuum cleaner, it was good for few days and then webbing was there again. And then I gave up, just water the plants and let them finish, like 3-4 weeks. Buds looks nice, they're washed with water and not infected. Plant material gone to outside burner, coco gone to compost. But now I am just scary that they live on tent walls and maybe there are some eggs, and waiting to me to put new plants into flower tent so they can eat again...

Okay, partitial harvest is completed, here is final weight:

- CJ 65g
- MA 75g
- BG 140g

280g from 200W with all the troubles they have... is a great number! Too bad I had to cut one plant before, GPW should be even higher.

And now it's time for empty tent cleaning. I will clean and spray it every few days just to be sure those mites are not there anymore.

I bombed the room with a Doctor Doom fogger... uses the same thing. They still came back!

They hatch and lay eggs every 36-48 hours. Spray every day for a week then every other day for a month. THEN watch your plants you may have to repeat the cycle. The diluted alcohol can be used even in flower. It may damage some trichromes, but I've seen no loss in potency. I sympathize with you, you've got a long battle ahead.
