I am sure some(Most) of it will get cobbed @dajerm119 , what I have now is so good.

I added these little guys into the grow room yesterday. I seen a few two spotted mites last week. I am almost certain I brought them in from outside veggy garden. Gave everything 2 doses of leaf wash also. I noticed everything that was crawling was dead after leaf wash's. I had all ready ordered the benny mites this time, but next time I think I will use just the leaf wash from @Doc Bud that stuff worked great. You can get a quart of the leaf wash for the cost of the benny mites and then use it any time you need it.

In the past I have used A HomeMade "LADY BUG HOME" to get rid of those critters

I have not had any issues with Mites for 3 or 4 grows but what I had started doing
was setting up a Lady Bug home around the middle of Veg. They are great hunters and just
spend all day working there way up and down the leafs looking for a meal :)

Anyway they can be purchased 1000 at a time from Orchard Supply or on line.
The best approach I have found is to use a cloning tray and lid. Add a wet sponge
for water (need to keep it moist) and some Raisins for Food, close the top air vents
with just a little room for the smart ones to find a way out. This set up will last through
Flower and you will still have some Lady Bugs present. They will multiply in there house and
as long as you keep there escape down to a minimum will last a very long time. OH you need
to make sure the sponge does not dry up and change the raisins every so often, they get sticky
so its best to Place them in a upside down small jar lid.

Most just open the LADY BUG container and let them out, in a few days they are all gone.

I have not had any problems for Multiple Grows now and if I do its a great way to get the
upper hand
 
I wonder what the life cycle is of a lady bug now. Can I keep them inside year around and how do I encourage them to multiply..... Hmmm have to ask one who know's all, dang she is not here. Ok, Google it will be.

Not sure there Life cycle but I could see them lasting a very long time as long as they have WATER, FOOD
And some warmth. They absolutely multiply in that set-up so long term should be doable

They naturally like to make homes in louvered vent type structures so front vents on my swamp cooler was
there second home :) I have also seen specifically made outdoor homes for them

EDIT:
Ladybug Facts
* Ladybugs are among the most familiar and easily recognized insect. Most species of ladybugs have shiny red, orange or yellow shells with black spots. Some types of ladybugs have shiny black shells with red or yellow spots.

* There are about 5,000 different species of ladybugs found around the world, and there are at least 400 different species of ladybugs in North America.

* Most species of ladybugs complete their life cycle in less than a year, though some ladybug species can live up to three years.

* A female ladybug is larger than a male ladybug.

* You cannot tell the age of a ladybug by the number of spots on its back.

* Many cultures value ladybugs as a sign of good luck.

* During its lifetime, a ladybug can eat almost 5,000 aphids.

* Ladybugs were sent into space! Four ladybugs traveled aboard the space shuttle to see how they capture their prey in zero-gravity. All four ladybugs survived the mission.

* Ladybugs are active in spring and summer. As the cold weather approaches, ladybugs seek sheltered areas to hibernate, including inside our homes! Hibernating colonies can number thousands of ladybugs.

* Legends say that the name 'ladybug' originated from early farmers who prayed to the Virgin Mary for help with the pests that plagued their crops. After the beetles ate all of the pesky insects, the farmer coined the name "Beetle of Our Lady". Over time, this evolved in lady beetle and ladybug.

Anyone, What has your harvest time been on White Widow if you have grown it?

Two WW grows for me JM. First one I flowered for 67 days and then flushed for 4 days. The second one (which I'm going to finish harvesting today) flowered for 65 days and flushed for 6 days.

JM, can you point me back to where your cobbing process is please. I have to try this with the White Widow I'm trimming now.

SD hope summer is treating you good. I have been battling heat and loosing all summer. We have had a crazy time with having to leave for extended times and coming home to some plants in very bad shape. The start of the cob thread has all the info you will need. The smoke from it is amazing in our eyes. Eating it brings in a different dimension. I have not had any of the mind blowing experiences that some others have had. It is very good and different for sure.
 
Ok, life got in the way here as of late. Anyways I only got 285g from her. I made (2) 40g cobs and they turned out nice. Turned out to be some of the smoothest smoke, it will sneak up on the unsuspecting. I took the remaining and made some fresh harvest oil. It also turned out good.
