San Diegos Finest Cuts #2

[echo_chamber]

I had same problem bro, super bummed. Fighting spider mites like mad right now, never been infected before til i picked up clones.. Spray downs have to be mandatory at any dispensary/co-op, not an option... It should come with the territory.. I do beleive there is competition in this arena, and it would not be hard to stock a place with infected clones... Co-op's need to take the responsibility to pre-treat anything they sell, not offer it as an option.

im not worried about me.. im just letting the person know ( them Mainly) to check there garden.. just a friendly " heads UP" is all... i got the teen for free so the money aint an issue ... its growers that dont give a fuck about the shit there vending is what i have a problem with... keep your shit clean and vend clean cuts.. if its infested keep that bullshit to yourself.. you are what you sell .. period.. if your putting out bad/infested clones your the reason why a first time grower may fail not becuase he/she doesnt know how to grow, because they werent given good healthy genetics in the first place.. that bubba blue was unsalvagable....fucking webs and spiders every where.. after the PNC spray down and my AZAMAX treatment flush and foliar....

I got a cut ( not from PNC ) that brought mites into my room. I quarantined and sprayed with the Spectracide product Storm Shadow posted. I thought I had it dealt with but awhile after moving the infected plant into general poplulation I found a tiny pocket of activity. I decided to try Predator Mites

I managed to get 1000 shipped for about $40. Normal release rate is 1 predator per plant but I spread those 1000 in my 6' x 6' space. It feels really weird to be intentionally spreading bugs on your plants but at least for my situation, the predators absolutely kicked ass.

Theres like 6 common varieties of Predator Mite. Most prefer the 2-spotted ( red) mite as dinner. Some of the predators will eat thrips & other small insects. Some of the predators go cannabilistic if there isnt a good supply of food...others migrate away. If anybody is really interested in ordering some, PM me and I'll get you more info.

Sorry guys.....chem valley kush scrambles me at first...

that was Blue Dream Haze skinny side cola....(not to be confused with "Blue Dreams" which is the lesser cut, that dreeeeams of being the real cut. The periphery gets so frosty on lime green....tastes the best...little crusty tendrals...like AO...

here..like this....turned AO tub and exposed crusty emaciated wimpy little under nugs.....they taste like an Orange Julius

 

[Storm Shadow]

To be honest....If I were to bring some clones home......

I'd go use Forbid, Azatrol (Neemix 4.5 is better), Eagle 20

Only bug that can hide from all that shit is Root APhids...Hence the reason I've been growing from seed for so long... I still have nightmares about certain battles with my Garden Enemies...not fun

 

[echo_chamber]

Root Aphids can't survive "Imidacloprid". I battled them for almost a year, found Imidacloprid and they were gone a couple day's later never to return. The stuff is a godsend. Bayer Fruit & Vegetable is the bottle you want.. As far as PM goes, Eagle 20 is 20% Myclobutanil which is overkill. Spectracide Immunox is more like 1% Myclobutanil and does the job just as well.. Its way cheaper and available at most hardware stores.

 

[Storm Shadow]

Root Aphids for me equal trashcan...and I already mentioned Immunox...Eagle 20 is much better....Ive used both...Immunox isnt enough..its good for a week...u need repeated applications...Eagle 20 is one and done...

If you have Root APhids...your better of throwing away the plants and medium...nuke your room....fuck even giving them a chance to come back

 

[Storm Shadow]

Imidacloprid Root APhids can most Def get by this shit....you got really lucky it being so effective....most people arent so fortunate

 

[echo_chamber]

Yeah i feel lucky then, Immunox and Bayer Fruit and Vegetable, PM and Aphids never came back, its been over a year.. I'm honestly surprised to hear of Immunox or Imidacloprid not working, i've never heard that before on the forums i frequent. I've only heard 100's of sucess stories for both. If Myclobutanil at any strength is not taking care of a PM problem, the environment must have serious issues and you'd have to reapply multiple times. But it only takes 1 coating of Myclobutanil to kill PM systemically.. I only reapply to young veggers one time.. What do you guys use for Spider Mites?

[Storm Shadow]

Forbid works pretty bad ass....so Does a few Applications of Neemix 4.5 (Azatrol/Azamax)

 

[KRD]

Floramite works everytime.

 

[ProblemChild]

if spider mites get to the point of webbing at nodes and leafs.. is it better to just throw it in the gutter and go but another or battle them sukkas? ive used 2 spray downs of azamax full strength and one drench full strength.... i need something that will kill the eggs? something i can wipe every leaf with and wipe/kill any lurking eggs and mites on the undersides of leafs.. any info?

Floromite/Forbid...No wonder you couldn't get rid of your mites..Neem or its derivitives need to be used as preventative...
