Has/does anyone use predatory mites to control pest on their plants?
I had an outbreak of spider mites awhile ago and as I prefer organic growing, I purchased some lady beetles, well they failed dismally. I did more research and found a predatory mite called Californicus. Purchased a tube of them and scattered them all over the plants and in the veg patch. Approx. two weeks later - nothing. Can not even find the predatory mites!
I still have all the plants in the roof that were effected. They have dried out but a little reluctant to smoke them. What are your thought? Has anyone smokes mite infested buds? or would they leave the plant as it was drying?
