sour strains turn mites off bigtime. most anything from rez would do the trick as well ~ :wink:

Thanks!! Those are mighty fine lookin buds! Your post has lifted me from a major mite depression. I'm watching a friends grow and I'm sooo... tired of battling the bastards for him that I'm going to buy him an early birthday present. Ok so I will take a few clones along the way.

Hey Maddlights; sorry you have had the growers plague! But rather then be limited to resistant types, (and mites are very adaptable to pesticides!) try to prevent the little buggers from getting there to begin with! Sound easy said than done? check out this first; www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=7562 it may help.

CBF-Out of curiosity what are your night temps? Im beginning to think my problems are worse this year because we are experiencing a unusually warm and dry winter. Whatever the cause I'm gettin' the sourest stain I can find. My concern is odor so I just built a carbon srubber for my cabinet.
