Need advice fast
I just bought 65 plants. I knew they had some mites on them but since I only paid half I took them.
I sprayed them with spinosad before I settled them in a room. Dried them for 4 hours. Turned the light. Mites are still running amok. I have a situation. I want to limit the amount of time plants sit in the room, contaminating it. Question: Can I use another pesticide two days in a raw?

Maybe you have to give it more time?
Spinosad affects the nervous system of insects that eat or touch it. It causes their muscles to flex uncontrollably. This leads to paralysis and ultimately their death, typically within 1-2 days. https://npic.orst.edu/factsheets/spinosadgen.html

Get ladybugs, they will make short work of the mites, and the best no harmful chemicals

let me find the damn lighter first.
I like to use isopropyl alcohol/water 50/50 with soap and spinosad, and usually hit them with it every other day, for a total of 3 applications. Have hit my own plants daily for a week and they have been ok.

yepyep, multiple applications/low light for a week. Or some cheapo persimillis predator variety if the population is low.

It's time for a revolution, but probably not in the terms that people imagine it. The word conjures up images of— a modern day version of peasants going into the street with their pitch forks to go after the bad guy who lives in a big house and we're gonna get that son-of-a-bitch and we'll take all the stuff from him and we'll give it to the workers. That's not the kind of revolution I had in mind. I thought that it might be nice if it was handled a little bit more modern and efficient way, without people getting slaughtered. It's a matter of infiltration…The people who are in control of the media, the government that run the lives of the average person in the street. They aren't doing a good job 'cause they don't really care. The potential is there in the younger generation. Right now they’re not really interested. Their political involvement is on a very superficial basis. They go out for the social aspects of a march or a rally rather than for what it could possibly accomplish. -FZ

 Get em to thrive in 72F/20RH with 12/12 lighting conditions and you've got a winner.  (I use alcohol/water every 3 days for 5 applications. Don't know about hemp/russet, but it works grand on everything else.)
