Winning the Spidermite Battle

  1. Yo guys, so I've had a long battle with spidermites, but I've finally found something that has consistently kept them away.

    Spider mites | Cannabis Culture Magazine

    The organic tea recipe he talks about when sprayed on the undersides lightly every few days has really made the leaves unappetizing to the mites, and they've all disappeared out of starvation. I'm glad this finally worked...it was organic, effective, and best of all very cheap. I would recommend a pre-wash with half rubbing alcohol and half water before your first coat of tea to kill any live ones. The remaining eggs will hatch, have nothing to eat, and die very small. Make sure to use a fine mister bottle.

  3. thanks man! all those lil' fuckers are finally dead. they left a minor path of destruction, but it was caught early enough that i don't think it should hurt things too badly. appreciate the rep.:D
