Also spider mites like hot dry climates. I encounter them at the end of the summer in my area when it’s dry and less humid.
Here is @garrigan62 recipe [quote=“garrigan65, post:5, topic:1853”]
Tabacco Juice recipe
Take 3 strong ciggeretes soak them over night in water
Boil it for 2 to 3 miniutes, let it cool off and spray the plants 3 to 4 times a week. You can add safer soap if you like to the mixture.
(make absolutly sure you use gloves/face protection while handling and spraying)
Neem oil works very well too!!
ZBQ has an excellent thread on how to use neem oil without geting your plants to oily!! http://www.overgrow.com/edge/showthr...hreadid=482648 :tup: Your Last resort is to use Avid.

Ok I am giving neem oil another chance. Got the real stuff this time to mix myself not the pre mixed solution. Mixed with32 oz water 1 tbs neem oil and one tbs dish soap and sprayed until every inch was covered. Will try this all week to see if I can win

You can do it !!!
Someone burnt their plant not too long ago, by using too much dish soap. Don’t remember how much but all ya Need is a few weeks drops?
After spraying thoroughly for 2 days with the neem oil to try and rid my infestation of spider mites I took a day off yesterday from spraying. This morning I notice a lot of the leaves I sprayed are dying or turning yellow.
On a positive note the spider webs are gone the last two mornings where the build up was on stems and branches. But you can see leaves are dying. What to do what to do? Keep spraying? Cut off dying leaves? Help Obi Wan Kanobe

boy.idk @SourD…i feel for you!!
i just brought my ladys in and i checked them like a monkey…lol
I feel you. I went ahead and picked off dying leaves. I’ll hold off on spraying again until some advise rolls in.
*I’m still in the game ain’t 4th quarter yet😁
Keep positive bro, it’s stressful to see your babies attacked. Learn from your exp going forward.
She looks hungry all the way around, if webs are gone I wouldn’t spray any more, and i wouldn’t cut them off id leave them they will fall when they are ready
Have you fed them they have yellow leaves and I believe I saw purple stems in there
At 50 f the plant starts to develop tissue damage. If temps get into 40’s f, then cells satrt to die. Do something to keep that baby warm. She should be in a room at 90 f+.
Good Luck,a and welcome to ILGM, lw-admin
