Blitty, Einstein oil is supposed to be good. Look that up. I believe there is also a product called Azamax?

I dont know a whole lot but i would say neem oil or if you have a hydrostore near by or maybe even lowes but there is special pestacide spray that is ok to spray directly on the plants
Thank you so much MC. I think you are right. Lights just turned on and they didn't drink an ounce. I will, as soon as I get help, flush this morning. I will keep them off nutes for a few days. Is there a recommended amount of days to keep them on no nutes? Then will go half like you said.
I could have all started with low ph I raised the nutes as suppose to and it snowballed out of control. I just read the links and it is suppose to be complete nutes so we will see. 8 step here I come.
I ordered straight from the company both meters and hope to get them towards the end of next week. I may not have even needed them but better to be safe then sorry. I got both for $126. They give a discount if you go directly to there website I suppose since they don't have to pay ebay fees.

Must of been that breakfast bowl for me! Didn't even notice you were across the pond.
Sorry bout that bud!
no worries toke another bowl i'll join ya
Sorry fpf this is only thread I read because I would get over whelmed. I go to other threads when someone says read this to see what to do. I have a lot of trouble concentrating and was surprised I got through the tutorials. I took weeks and weeks.
I watch everything on dvr instead of on tv live because I miss lines all the time or daze out and have to repeat them sometimes many times.
I will use the advice of mc and you thank you ever so much. Now still waiting for help...still sleeping ug.

Directions of Use
Directions for use: Bloombastic should be used in the final 4-6 weeks of the bloom and ripening stage of the plant growth. Mix your usual base nutrients (this product can be used with any brand of nutrient). Then add 1/3 to 3/4 tsp of Bloombastic per 1 US gallon of water (0.5 —1ml per 1000ml) in your reservoir. Bloombastic is suitable for all sorts of cultivation substrates (soil, hydro and coco) and all irrigation systems.
Features & Benefits
Targets the plants energy needed at a cellular level.
Will provide an explosion of sugar and flower production as well as a massive production of resin crystals.
A substantial final weight increase is the net result of the above two points.
This product will also help the enzyme process on several levels and that will help your plants deal with stress factors such as high heat levels, dry air, high light intensity, disease, and nutrient deficiencies.
Using Bloombastic will also ensure a soft sweet flavor and aroma of the bloom.
You can use BLOOMBASTIC on all substrates, as:
(Potting)soil; Coco (compressed and welled up); Rockwool (surfaces and cubes); Mapito; Quantigo.
BLOOMBASTIC can be used in combination with all irrigation systems, as:
Nutrient Film Technique (NFT); Ebb and flow; Droppers; Sprinklers; Aeroponics; Bubblers.
Solid advice there.
I always keep neem oil handy. Bid deal said Einstein oil. It's what I use. Works great! Tons of other brand names. You want PURE neem extract.
Azamax is another good option. Works great. Never used it for Spidermites myself, but I'm sure it works. It's another bottle that's handy to have around!
My personal Neem mix:
5 ml neem oil
1-2 ml insecticidal soap or other detergent
1 liter warm water
And for Homemade recipe:
2 cloves of garlic
2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
Mix all the ingredients into a blender. Mix thoroughly and strain through a cheesecloth to get a clear liquid. Pour this into a spray bottle. (You may add water but the potency of the juice will be reduced. Set the spray bottle on "mist" & mist the affected plants. Use a 16 ounce (.53 litre) spray bottle. Make sure to get the undersides of the leaves. Note: The juice is chemical free & safe for edible & non-edible plants. - That was pulled from Sal Gilbertie's book ""Herb Gardening At Its Best".

Sounds like a plan
Blitty, I picked up some ferti-lome Triple Action plus RTU and it really knocks them out. There are a number of products out there, go to a good garden center and see what they have. Just remember to get a miticide, it will kill the eggs too. This product has neem oil in it, most of the good commercial brands do. I came home one night to find spider mites on my palm tree in my living room. I took it outside with all the other plants in my living room, gave them all a good wash with the ferti-lome and bye bye buggies! Haven't seem one since, that stuff kicked butt!
Now, when I start a grow I use Azamax. It's mixed with the water giving you systemic protection, it's infused in the leaves and the mites hate it. I understand it screws up their genetics, really makes a mess of them.

I sure understand that, I can't keep up most of the time myself! Hang in there girl, you're doing fine, we all have our problems with our grows. MC's a good friend to have here.

Great looking product. You have to love when a company markets an item based on your fears and insecurities
. "Whether you grow indoors or out sooner or later the mites will find you, get them before they get your plants!" If my pest protection fails, I know I can turn to this product though.- Thread starter

In sales we call that the impending doom close. Never use it. LOL! I sell hope and not fear.
Good man!

fan blowing upwards to the leaves, 1/2 SH nutes, usually have 2 85w cfl but it got to hot so i turned off the red spec light....

whoohoo, Just did my flush. The roots did get longer and one or two went to the bottom of the tank, so that is positive. I will still leave the pump in for the time being till I get a mess load of roots.
When do I add the nutes back? I was thinking tomorrow afternoon.
Just finished flush...bucket cleaned parts cleaned all good. I just need remember to cut feeding hoses on an angle next time. They are a pain to poke back into the cups. I am not pulling them to cut them. I hope next change of water they will come out anyhow.
Simon I did see that last time you put it up. I really just don't understand it. It isn't how you wrote it, it is just me. All these different nutes confuse me. I need simple one bottle for veg and one for bloom, although I do have the ripe though.
