hello all. i have been growing recreationally for about a year and i am seeking any kind of help with these spider mites. i have two 5 foot plants 3 weeks into budding and these spider mites wont quit!. i have tried a total release fogger.....no results. i tried bugzyme.....no results. yesterday i bought a small bottle of "Pyola." this was the hydroponic store's recommendation for treatment. so now i find myself in my third attempt to kill these things. i would appreciate any tips or suggestions. thanks all.
