how the f@@k did they get in there???

got 6 lovely ssh 6 weeks into flower in a tent in the loft, ive been careful and not put nothing in there that would carry any bugs and what have i only just noticed (blind git) they are crawling in spider mite. now these plants look great and look like they are gonna be massive yielders so do i try and save em or is it a no win situation as they have at least 5 weeks till theyre done, sorry for my boring tale of woe just need to know what you experienced guys and gals would do????????????

ill bet these started as clones from somone else?

get some lady bugs over night shipping. 1500 for like 7 bugs 4500 for like 22 bucks.

There's not much you can do that far into flower. On the other hand, they probably won't kill your plants. You said the plants look great so. . .just persevere. I have used a shop vaccuum on my buds to remove webbing.

The good news is, they will leave your plant when you harvest and dry it, most of em anyway.

yes they did, do u think they came with eggs or something?

eggs and adults both, probably.

thought they would have ruined the plants long ago? so maybe theyll make it thru to harvest then??

no, mites seem to freak out and go nuts when you start flowering phase. Also, every day your population of mites is increasing exponentially. The farther you get into flower, the crazier they will get.

neem oil. mix it with dishsoap and spray both sides of the leaves and nugs. spray the soil or whatever medium your using. repeat every 3-4 days till there gone. neem is used in the food industry so it is safe for consumption.

No pest strips...available at Home Depo...they work GREAT....hang 'em up and no more bugs.

I agree, but don't forget to wash it off, OK? Spray it on and once you're done, don't let it sit on there longer than an hour. Less time is even better. Yes, it is a wonderful bug killer that I use constantly. But it clogs stomata, and that's how your plants breathe, and if you don't wash it off, they will suffocate, or at least turn out all weird and fucked up. Spray, let it dry, wash it off with plain water, repeat.
