blueovalbug Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 So I'm in week 4 of flower and I have mites I understand that I'm not going to be able to git rid of them now but is there any good homemade sprays that will slow them down which are safe to use at this stage thanks for reading happy Mondays people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindSoup Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 (edited) I wouldn't be spraying anything on flowering plants myself. I'd either be trying to kill them with ozone (careful you don't kill yourself at the same time) or predators like Phytoseiulus Persimilis as they're very aggressive and good for curing infestation.

blueovalbug Posted March 7, 2022 Author Share Posted March 7, 2022 Sorry what is ozone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindSoup Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Its a gas, you can buy ozone generators. In low concentrations its a very effective pesticide/sterilising agent, but at higher concentrations it becomes harmful/deadly to everything so you have to use it responsibly.it sounds a lot scarier than it actually is. It's a brilliant solution to a lot of problems in the grow tent, pests, bud rot, powdery mildew etc, unless you're growing organically because it will also wipe out you beneficial microbes etc. Have a search for "ozone as a pesticide" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
