Mites- I got em, tell me if they will die PICS!!

:smoking: Hey Chop', how ya doin? :cuss: I know! :rofl: .... OK, great c/u pics bro,... 99% of the time, mites prefer to be under, not on top,... and that undershot isn't clear enough to be sure of tiny tiny mites,.. do you have a strong magnifier lens to look and confirm mites? Is it just (mostly) the upper surface showing symptoms? I ask because those top leaf shots look more like thrips damage than mites... (mite damage is finer, creating more of a "silvery" stippling over a lager area.. google some pics to see what I mean)... Thrips are highly mobile, and often are not at the scene of the crime,... they can fly too, so them getting inside is not a surprise! they are much bigger than mites though, so scout around with a strong light and magnifier,... in any case, that Azamax is a great product, and any of the others as a second alternate bombing is great (unless the label says not to use in conjunction with other products)-- it's a 1-2 punch, first one, wait a couple days, then the other, that works best! Dosing them with alternate modes of killing is a good strategy,... ** :nono: shit, just saw the next page! :hothot: that sucks bro', sorry that happened,.. odd, you used a proper dosage, but I guess the lights were too much together,... do you have a root tonic like Superthrive, or Jumpstart, etc.? It'll help with the shock and speed recovery,...
 
Hey chop

I keep a product called sm90 on hand. I use it always in my coco and as a foliar treatment. As a foliar it can be a dispersant or surficant at low rates of application or an insecticide at higher rates. I've even used it as a one shot knock out for early pm.

Anyway, the thing it would help you with is plant recovery. It has salacitic acid which will stimulate hormones and help recovery.

Btw sm stands for spider mite.

First of all thanks for your help through out my grow! I've made some huge mistakes that have cost me but I'm learning and will never repeat same mistakes!
I'll stop and pick some up at the store. Should I use in conjunction with my feeding?

Great!! Thanks for checking in and helping me! I'll stop at the store and pick some up today. Can I use this with Superthrive or a root tonic together? Also should I apply as a foliar spray while feeding. The reason I ask is my plant isn't doing much eating. So the plan was to feed at a lower ppm say like 300 when I've been at 600 ppm throughout? I'm using gh floranova bloom cal mag+ and a little silica.

Can you have a quick look at the earlier photos I just looked and then increased the size of the photo by using my fingers...lol anyway you should be able to tell about the type of pest it is
 
Mites and eggs by my eyes. You can use SM 90 with other preperstions it is alkaline so be prepared to pH and use a little extra care cleaning your probe since it has coriander oil that will be a little stubborn.

Is that oil safe on buds?
