You know I never had a bug outdoors here in Oregon,, ever. Now I get cuts off a local breeder which I had no complaints about them over the last 6 years. I have gotten spider mites from them before, I understand, they are larger scale and that's expected, so I bought 3 or 4 again this year. I ended up shit canning 3 of the 4. And the 4th was 75% what she should've been.. Over a bug that makes a spider mite look like a giant, damn russet hemp mites. Now I have bad old eyes, but without my glasses I spot a mite right off. These I couldn't see till plants were suffering. These 4 plants were all the worse as far as infected. Lesson in this story is, clones. I never got a bug from seeds.... Seeing it was all these clones from a 'farm' that's where I got my bugs. I'm a slow learner.... I fought mites for afew grows in a row before I surrendered and shut down and did a total cleanup, soil and everything. I mean total. What I meant earlier about afew weeks ahead. Well I know you know. But If you need to battle them during early flower,, look into Green Cleaner. I had good results early in flower with this. It didn't even fry pistils at 1 oz per gallon. And killed bugs. But once the buds form, terpenes, being oil based, are kind of waterproof, and you'll get no penetration, to kill the suckers,,, and there they come back out from the buds and reinfect. I wish ya the best and Keepem Green
I also don't have the time nor energy to stick with a less than average example of a strain. I believe it's best to seek out the best or better example,...then clone it and or cultivate it. SS spends a lot of her time with her plants ,..i would just like to see her be blown away by what it could do , is all , and don't mean to sound negative. I wish everyone a very relaxing and enjoyable Christmas. Cheers.
I'm going to super-decarb the remaining amount and give it another go. 
Even Doc himself had to acquiesce to the persistent buggers.
