spider mites on my clones

sundance · #1 (**permalink**) 10-21-2009, 06:39 PM

so i went and picked up six soon to be clones from a friend of mine last night, and when i got them home and in the cloning box i noticed what seemed to be spider mites, so i called him and asked if he has seen any on his plants, and he tells me all his plants are infested with em.

so im wondering if i should wait till they root to try and kill those little bastards or try to kill them right now

I had the same problem from a flowering clone.. the flower had spidermites. I brushed them off with a soft toothbrush.. it looked clean when i was done.. Although if you tried to spray them make sure its lite spray and you proly wont kill em but stop them from multiplying if you keep consistent with the treatment.

completely spray your plants with neem oil (both sides of the leaf) every 3 days until mites are gone. I would continue to spray every 5-7 days throughout your cycle.
