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

Is that oil safe on buds?

Many growers will spray buds if they haven't started filling in between nodes. Anytime you fight a bug you want to wash your weed before you dry.

I have issues with to much weed, sometimes I throw it out because i don't have time to process it. So I would bin my plants bomb my rooms wait a few days and repeat and then start over if I had mites.

Ok it hasn't started filling in between nodes so I'll go ahead and use it. Wash my plant before I dry it??? Not sound to stupid but just use plain water or something else?

Here's the recipe:

Keep the plant in branches, not buds and trim as u normally would.

Get 3 5 gal buckets set up.

The first bucket is room temp h20 and 1/2 cup baking soda and 1/4 cup lemon juice.

The second is hot water

The 3rd is cold water.

Dip branch in first bucket, agitate lightly, cycle through remaining buckets and hang to drip dry for day. Continue drying as u normally do

If you have 30℅ h2o2 you can put in about 10 mil per gallon. Otherwise just figure it out with 3%

Thanks for the how to!!

Yw, should have mentioned if you're not washing pm, you can reduce the h2o2 to about 15 mil 30% per 5 gallon bucket.

... Hey Chop', sorry for the delay... harvest crush!
... blow up's are excellent, and yes, that confirms it- mites! Whatever weapons you use, repeated applications will be needed; with mites, it's not a battle, it's a war unfortunately,... until you can utterly nuke the entire room, and clean all stuffs laying around in there, the bug-borg will not relent! Have you picked up a spinosad product yet? Still my choice, for it's effectiveness and low residues,... Jingo has got you covered on the washing (thanks mate! ) .. you can google the process, and find the video(s) on this process,... do you have a powerful magnifier, like a jewelers loupe? This will help scan the buds for any bio-debris,...

I haven't picked up the spinosad yet. Is there a trade name I should look for? I'll stop buy the store today and ask for the product and also the loupe...do you recommend 30x or 60x?

No worries on th late reply!! I get it lol! Wish I had some bud to harvest!!

I'll include some pics of my plant lots of burnt leaves and still not looking 100% but she is still growing.
Question: when should I start looking for a hermie I suspect that it will happen cuz of all the stress she has been under?

Montgomery is there spinosad company, but I'm seeing it in lots of other preparations. Even at my local home depot.
