What did you use for spider mites? It seems I might have a couple. Some leaves have a white residue on them but I cant see any spider mites.

Honestly, I never got rid of them. Super hard to kill the buggers. Although there are ways, Pyrol, Neem. I once even hosed my plants down to try get rid of them. Problem is, once you realise they are there, it's too late by then.

Co2 works wonders. Kills them all. Except its can be quite dangerous if you dont ventilate afterwards.

Yeah my first grow so not really sure when its actually to much and whether I can leave it as is.

But I will still try the milk spray as I had some mould on the cbd I harvested in December and I had to chuck it.

I have the exact same issue.
So do you just use a spray bottle with undiluted milk?

Pretty sure I have spider mites as well.
I see Efekto have a Spinosad product. Might try that in addition to the milk.
 
Another option for getting rid of white powder mold is believe it not mouth wash. I didn't have a bad breakout and took a cotton bud and wiped off the mold. Since that it has not come back on the areas I did wipe. It has now been over 3 weeks. I do have a slight little bit still but I think its kinda in control coupled with milk spray. I have not tired diluting and spraying me entire plant. I will experiment with one of my bag seed plants and check if it does any damage to the pistils and leaves.
 
Might do some damage. I'm thinking it's the alcohol (unless you used the alcohol free one?) that does the job.
So dilution is a must.

Seems that no one really knows why milk works; but hopefully it can help with spider mites as well.
Thankfully my plant isn't flowering yet.
 
Any alternatives to 420 monkeys? Their prices are good but R150 shipping fee is a bit too high (no pun intended)

I'm in Joburg.
