Yes it is friend it's an absolute nightmare nothing grows like it used to an it's heartbreaking.I'm hoping for a cold winter to kill em off outside an I can start next year at full potential outdoors .I have had to pretty much keep heat treating an if I open the greenie I see signs of broads immediately .I can keep em back but with a tree producing millions I'm doomed eventually unless I kill the trees .
Been thinking about buying them close to flower but I have to keep my humidity up an temps right for them an that would be a major challenge in June ,July .I'm hoping that around August September I will be able to drop some swiirski an andersoni an possibly a couple more predatory mites .Friend I wouldn't wish these things on my worst enemy the only positive is I have learned as much as there is to know about destructive agricultural mites from books an experience .A part of my growing journey I must need to experience everything happens for a reason
Will post some pictures later with my autistic son outta school for the summer an as soon as I go outside he's off an at it so its been hard to get photos plants look good but I have to heat treat regularly to keep the bugs off .The cool thing is I have no problem killing off the broads but with the tree next to the greenie it's a struggle .After a cold winter an no growing indoors they should die off my next years season an I will finally have a dream grow /light dep going off .
