I don't think the cfls will be hot enough o make a difference so just leave them there if not blocking light. If you do take the upper down just set it in the corner of growroom out of the way where kids or pets can't get at it.



Sorry bud, no journal. But...

I didn't use neem. If your still on veg you can spray them.
I used the strips in flower. No problems.

just tried this product in week 4 of flower, no ill effects to plant http://stores.indoorgrowsource.com/green-clean-spider-mite-and-powdery-mildew-destroyer-8oz/
seems to work, was a free sample
also just tried this product in veg http://www.americanag.com/flying-skull-nuke-insecticide-fungicide-p-1564.html
did a soil drench for aphids and spray for mites/aphids. some of the plants did ok, some didn't like the drench but seem to be bouncing back. Both are omri listed and claim to be able to use on harvested plants.

If they have webbed and you can see them moveing around you are fighting a loseing battle do not care what any one says the only way is finish the grow off then bleach the room with a spray of bleach neat continue this for a week every day and then leave the fans on to dry the room out clean of with soapy water then start a fresh.

for future ref be careful with anything that you are buying clone wise because sometimes it can cost you big time,if there are only a few spider mites then introduce lady birds /ladybugs fight nature with nature nothing works tried everthing from neat vodka neem oil soapy water with lemon juice and lady birds may take a few out if there are only a few

Apparently your screwed if you live on the west coast. I guess they have super mites over there. Neem and spinosad has always killed them for me no problem. I hope they don't start making there nasty way over here :/

"The United States Environmental Protection Agency first considered a ban on DDVP in 1981. Since then it has been close to being banned on several occasions, but continues to be available. Major concerns are over acute and chronic toxicity."

I am no chemist, and if u say it breaks down that's great, but i would not be putting DDPV on my buds, and that is what you are doing by leaving these strips in your grow room. The strips put DDPV onto your plants, this is how they kill mites.

Just did some research. DDPV is used close to harvest on many fruits that are eaten. This is because it can be easily washed off with water as everyone does with fruit. If you feel you can wash the residue off your buds without ruining them this product may be safe for use in flowering.

Are they flowering?
If so, use mighty wash.
If not, use neem oil.
