First two days of treatment i blasted them with a garlic cayenne cinnemon oinion mix were i spottet most infestation and of course rinsed with water after 15-20 minutes
then about one week i switched between the soap and tobacco treatment every other day they got either soap or tobacco tea and a good rinse
the homemade soap/alcohol mixture i used seemed to encapsulate grown up mites when applied for 15-20 minutes before getting rinsed off pretty damn well.
The tobacco water seems to react good on the nymphs and larval stages of the mites when applied and left on for 15-20 minutes before a good rinse off
And the rosemary and peppermint aloe vera i have used the last week of treatment as an "afterburner" foliar spray should be like "teargas" and annoying as shit for those little bastards by doing so they wont get a good foothold on the plants again. the aloe vera is added to help the plants systemic acquired resistance.
i give the plant a few good rinses with pure water and let them be for a couple of days before releasing the predators. so they won't be annoyed by any applications i have put on the plants earlier
i know my room look small and newbie-ish. But keep in mind before i lost my house and everything do to sickness, i actually made a quite good living on the side of my job on growing meds for people in my 12x12 feet growroom so from my earlier experience i would say my plants are gonna be just fine. (this treament would have been a bit annoying back then having to carry 40 plants to the shower every day even tho they were placed in aquafarms) but with two plants in flower i think can manage dragging them to my shower once in a while
thanks for your advice m8
but next spring im gonna change the layout of my garden for mites security purposes
even tho that means no strawberries and tomatoes
