Hey peoples , been a long time since I have posted... Anyway, here goes. I finally got spider mites, but I don't want them controlled. I want them eradicated !!! Anyone have any pros and cons to using KELTHANE ?? I don't have them bad yet. I see them on a leaf here and there. No webbing yet. I also notice them more on ones that are 2 weeks away from harvest, but not really in the veg room. I have a friend that doesn't give a shit and just bug bombs when he gets them. Any pros and cons to that method ?? He says it works until he plays golf or mows the lawn and drags them back in. I don't like chemicals, so I need help on bug bombs or KELTHANE. Any suggestions ???

Well sounds like the obvious prevention is to wash your hands before you start touching your plants. Start to spray your plants now, don't wait till it gets bad!! These mite feed off you plants sucking them dry which in turn slows down the growth which finially leads to a poor yeild.
I don't know anything about Kelthane so I'm not going to say anything on that, but what I've just purchased today which I've read up on is a spray called "Bio Soy I" this is an organic soy based bug spray that urns these little bastards into jelly in only twenty min's.

well after reading a lil on kelthane I don't think I would use it. seems very harsh and unhealthy to you if nothing else. do what you have to. prolly gonna leave a shitty taste in your buds being that you are only a cupl weeks from harvest.

OK Dew Drop , So where do I get this : BIO SOY I " from ?? Like I said """ eradicated """ is what I am looking for really.. I take good pride in never having mites , but I had a friend take care of things for almost 2 weeks while I was gone and this is what I got !!! What a sorry bastard ?? Life goes on though ... Hey anyone else got any feedback on bugbombs ?? I can careless about chemicals and bad pesticides to eradicate. I'll do ANYTHING to get completely get rid of them , regardless of my lungs or taste.. just feel determined to rid myself of the inevitable .......
