So… It looks like I’m winning so far. I’ve got 8 plants in my tent. 3 WW autos I sprouted about a month ago and 5 Girls Scout Cookie Extreme photos. 2 of which about a month younger. The two younger ones had the mites. I took a look under the scope today and saw nothing but dead carcasses. I won’t claim victory, because everywhere I read, they can spread pretty easily. I used a combination of Captain Jack’s and then the essential oil based spray. The oil spray was effective for immediate death I think, but the younger growth on the my most infested plant and one auto didn’t take it very well. The new growth slowed down considerably, but it seems to be past the hurt and coming back. @Hogbud posted about doing a sulphur burn. I did some reading up and see that wettable sulphur is another great mite killer. I can’t really do a sulphur burn the way I’m set up, but doing a spray seems like a fine solution for my situation. I think once the plants perk back up some, I’ll take each plant out and give them all a sulphur spray in the shower, then get em back in the tent once dry. Probably next day or so. Thank you everybody for the good advice!
