hey @Skydiver , How long does the current tx he’s using continue to kill mites ? Won’t that kill off the GOOD ones too ?

Not sure what tx is referring to.
If the spray or whatever is being used to treat the bad mites is applied while veggie mites or meat mites are present it will kill both. Most things applied to kill mites will only work for a particular time so adding meat mites to your pots should be timed to account for other things being applied to them.

I pulled some newer leaves off the two plants and put them under a microscope. No signs of bugs or eggs. You can see the sulfer dust here and there. Im gonna bomb them again just incase. They were sprayed with micronized sulfur a week ago. Im supposed wait 2 weeks before spraying with any oil based bug killer or fungicide. Next weekend Ill start spraying with Purecrop1 and use that for the remainder of the grow.
5 of the LAC clones rooted so I transplanted them into solo cups and put them under a bigger light.

Update on my fight with russet mites.
After months of spraying and defoliating I think Ive got it under control. This is what I’ve used so far. I started off with
Sulfer then switched to
Purecrop1 after waiting 2 weeks. I also use Lost coast plant therepy and Green cleaner
Ive been soaking them pretty much every day. Currently im using Green cleaner every day for a week. I wash off the plants every few days with well water and once a week I soak them with water from my duck pond. They are really taking off with tuns of new growth. Ill be spraying them all the way through to harvest just incase.
This one just got a good soaking with Green cleaner
