Got the little bastards i'm out doors, in flower, have tented off a few plant got temp up to 120 (in top of canopy) for a hour, plants look good, still got the little fucker....how hot do i dare get it? thanks
Thank u very much for the reply, never tried the swirskii (heard about then never through i'd needum) got lots of ladybug larve runing around. have to wait for weather change to try for the humity thing. did get it up there (98%) for a pfr97 treat ment 5 days ago,, will have to wait till this heat wave leaves 90's.......never ever will i use things like forbid i'd trash my crop first thanks againdepends on your humidity, id say 130 is plenty though, you may knock the adults down but the eggs hatch in 3-5 days im pretty sure so you will more than likely need to repeat this in the future to kill any remaining that hatch.
a good IPM regiment can help prevent these little guys. ive read good things about swirskii mites as treatment. not sure if it would be economical though depending on the size of your garden.
if you go with a chemical option forbid 4f has worked for me in the past, its not something i would do if you are late in flower though.
good luck
