HELP!!!Massive spidermite infestation (read all other post still have a problem)

[chronicman]

I have a massive infestation and i can not get rid of it. because of where i am located Avid is not an option. I have purchased end all and it doesnt stop them from comming or even seem to kill much either. I was thinking of trying to vacume my plant to get rid of these creatures, would this work. i also read somthing about isoproponal and i was wondering is it safe to mist plants with ISO or will that kill my babies.

Any suggestions would be great because i dont think the plant will even make it to flowering at this rate.

Sorry about the double post my bad

Hmmm. I heard rather than using chemicals which is a last resort you should try literally bathing the plants with some sort of organic pesticide. I heard even soap can work if you do it correct. Do a forum search. there are a lot of posts I think about it.

if ur plants are budding... u can't do much of anything...

I am suprised that end-all didn't help at all. It has always worked for me, but it was never used for a severe case. The only thing I know of that will kill all the mites guaranteed is a chemical called Pentec. They took it off the market here in Canada because it was causeing people that used it to become sick. YOu might be able to get it in the USA still. I used it many times in the past and even for the worst case of bugs it kills them all dead. You just have to mask yourself and where long sleeves to prevent it from touching your skin. You CAN'T use it on budding plants unless you plan on killing yourself and your friends around you. So, if your budding forget I mentioned it.

If you are into bud just keep using the end-all every day until either your plants finish budding or they web up and die. Really there is not much you can do at this stage.

Edit: I just wanted to add: I am not sure of the name 'Pentec' so if you do a google search you might not find it. It sounded like that but the spelling may be different. Hopefully someone else here knows of the correct spelling.

There's a real mean one called 'Floramite' that will stop it all in it's tracks. It's the same as the rest of the serious stuff. Not during bud and only use it once per cycle. Use protective gear when using it and don't play around. If you use it right and clean the hell out of everything it should break the cycle.

chronic'...the vacume cleaner will help. You can also take em into the shower and use the "vigorous" spray to wash em off. It won't get them all, but it will decrease the numbers.
Isapropyl dilluted helps, too. Mites "must" transpire to survive. Rinse with clean water 15 minutes after the iso' wash.

if u do have em all in your buds... if u leave them to dry out.. just hang em up and after a couple weeks they'll all die off and/or go away. But the bud will still crackle a lil bit.
