Bombs and organics are worthless against spider mites!

[phattybudz]

I tried everything in the book, besides Avid and Forbid 4F. Then I tried Forbid 4F. BOOM.

2 years of fighting mites. Sure, they would retreat, but come the end of flower, they'd be throwing a 3 ring circus. I was very, very close to giving up growing altogether.

I still see ALL KINDS of "OMG I've got spidermites!" threads.

Please, do yourself a favor, and don't fuck around with spidermites. Organics, are you kidding me? They used it as lube while buttfucking my plants vigorously.

I tried:

Einstein oil, hot-shots strips, Floramite, rubbing alcohol, tobacco mixes, zero tolerance, many MANY MANY bombs! ...The list goes on...

The best cure that worked for me, the cure that ERADICATED mites, was Forbid 4F. 2 months and I'm still spidermite free. Get it on ebay for something like $20/ 1/4 oz...

Do it for your garden. And then don't introduce new cuts without prevention!
I can't speak to Avid's effectiveness, but Forbid is a sure thing.

*Edit* I should also mention that this infection came from NorCal club clones...

einstein oil worked for me.The secret is spraying everything,floor,plant ceiling.Then again,id bug bmb the whole place b4 i brought one plant into the place.

Organics always worked on mited for me, never needed any chems. The key is to spray every last nook and cranny and do so every 3 days for at least 5 applications.

thanks for the info!! I have never heard of Forbid 4F. Always great to hear about success stories against mites! especially after battleing for so long!

Norcal mites don't play that shit with organics friends. Sprayed and cleaned everything multiple times. If they worked for you that's awesome and I respect that, but for me it was a major $$$ waste..Even dunked in floramite, neem, safer's soap etc... even MOVED to a new clean location and nothing worked except Forbid.

forbid should wipe out mites... being in cali they are alittle more resistant then other places... i use forbid and floramite alternate cycles every 17 days

Dunno where my mites came from, I got them free with an ECSD cutting last time, took a month of spraying every 3 days to make sure they had gone.

All I have ever used is Neem Oil,
Some times a product with Spinosad(active ingredient) more for thrips works for mites
but that's all
I have used High 8ph as foliar that kinda stalls em, with h2o2 works a bit.
Azamax heard good stuff about, GH product

Don't stop there. Go to Tijuana and pick up some DDT and add some chlordane,heptachlor and aldicarb.
