Yes that is what I meant as for you BJ, smoking bud or flower contaminated with neem oil is rather dangerous for your health as neem oil is labeled as potentially toxic. There is big speculation about the relation between neem oil and CHS and many are speculating that this might be causing this terrible sickness rather than the cannabis flower itself.
After two weeks with ladybugs and just one spot shot soap spray of a few plants, I am actually pretty impressed with how the mite population isn't blowing up. No webs, stipples not spreading. I kind of expected it to be a waste with all the folks saying they don't work, but my next harvested flower room will need no spray for the last 5 weeks and I give ladybugs the WeedOrchard stamp of approval for controlling spider mites indoors.

Really elaborate set-up! Must have put some good times work into it. If you don’t mind me asking, indirectly, is it a over the table operation or.. you know....?
