Hi everyone,

Which product is best for fighting against spider mite infestations, i was thinking the neem oil as it makes the plants taste bad as well as screwing with the mites so might be a more long term solution as ill need something that works best for flowering plants and mothers!. thanx

Have never used neem so can't comment on that but have used Harka Mectin quite successfully . I quite like Mectins as they kill swiftly and break down in a reasonable time frame. Spray them on only the underside of the leaves (that's where the mites mostly feed) and Mectins will only penetrate the first few layers of cells, they aren't systemic so won't travel all over the plant. Although I wouldn't recommend use in flower (use SBPI if you have to spray late in flower) if you really do have to this characteristic of staying where it was sprayed in the leaves means it shouldn't get into your buds.

If you do choose to use Harka Mectin spray every 5 days for maybe 3 applications and I doubt you'll see anymore living mites

thanx felix gonna order some now.
