Getting those carnivorous plants in there should help greatly.

thinking some pitcher plants and venus fly traps / honey dews would work a treat

They’re looking better today. I’ll be giving booberry a mild pruning near the soil to make watering easier and keep the leaves from touching the soil.
Jelly Pie is bouncing back again. I’ll let the soil dry out and wait for leaves to recover, then droop before watering again.
Marauder is getting pretty purple. Those white specks are odd. Not exactly sure what they are.
DBHP is seemingly getting greener by the day. I’ll give her a few more days before I call it on her. I can fill her space with branches from Booberry and Marauder if she can’t come back from this.

Booberry got a very mild trim yesterday. She looks much more happy today.
Jelly Pie just keeps going into droop, but she shouldn’t need any more water yet, so LITFA.
Marauder is getting pretty purple now😁 it’ll be interesting to see her when she’s in flower.
DBHP is looking much better, but I it just me or does she look leggy?

Well the spidermites came back with a vengeance. They almost completely webbed Booberry whole I was at work. I saw them before heading in today and couldn’t do anything about it at the time. I got some spinosad and sprayed them down making sure to get every spot on every leaf in the tent. It took half a spray bottle of deadbug to spray properly, but with the dense jungle that is Booberry with her stems being so rigid she ate a lot of sprays. The spots have spread to the rest of the cannabis plants leaving the rest if the herbs alone. The Rosie basil is being ignored now instead of being a lure like before. I wonder why? 
One thing is for sure though and I’ll trust my instincts next time I think spidermites and not wait for them to web up the plant to be sure. I could have solved this a month ago
I’ve found out that mites go to.your best plants

I sprayed them when I had gotten home from work after lights off. I woke up after my post work nap and I see the infestation getting worse:pleading_face: it was a couple of webs in those areas before I sprayed and removed the webbing before I went to bed. Then I wake up to this shit I’m out of spinosad. I sprayed again to be safe. I killed so many mites. It turns out I have a general mite allergy, so I can feel every one crawling on my skin when they get on me. Makes it easy to catch and smash any trying to hitch a ride. Though downside is I have crawlies now from talking about it and I can’t feel the difference between the 2 until this calms down

Interesting 
my kiwi strawberry mojito mint is almost dead now with the small seedlings popping up now. I wonder if it being in-between leaf growth stages might be why I’m seeing them now also. It just recently dropped almost all of it’s leaves and seed pods have turned brown and shriveled on the stem. At the soil level new growth has just started to pop out.
Signs point to a dying mite population. I sprayed them down again after lights off. This time the webs were so minimal, that it might be possible for me to eradicate the spidermites.
Pictures might be a little bit for me to figure out. My camera takes pictures too large to upload without a option to figure out why on the stock camera.
The ones I’ve uploaded were already difficult to manage and took a lot of pictures to get right for only a couple of pictures 
I’ll have to get a new camera app to take advantage of the camera on this thing. 16mp and 5mp depth sensor lens. Not bad for a phone
I use the Picsart phone app to resize, crop, or color correct my photos. You may consider checking it out.

Signs so far point to an almost dead population. I sprayed again after lights off today and a few hours after lights on I wake up from my post work nap to find no mites at all. Some eggs it seems under the leaves, but I have another day to spray the tent to go. After the initial spray failed I used insecticidal soap mixed with a tea made from eggshells to help add some calcium and sulfur back into the plants as it was likely being sucked out by the fuckers.
I finally harvested my mint. Let’s see if it keeps up flowering of goes back to veg again. Oddly a ladybug was alive hiding in the mint flowers canopy. Just chilling on the soil.
DBHP is liking the foliar it seems. I think she’s dehydrated, but she doesn’t like a fun drench it seems🤪 I’ll have to supplement with a foliar every other day or so until she recovers. I completely expected her to die. Seems the mites were doing damage to her.
Marauder is looking really purple now. Her stems are still malleable, so training will be easy to do once I get the plan of action down on how.
Jelly pie seems to like the foliar as well. Her leaves seem much better looking and less heat stressed. The stems are much better in structure too.
Booberry is finally looking better also. Her stems are getting malleable also, so that’s also nice to have when she needs to be trained out again. Her foliage is too dense right now. Some of the tops don’t get direct light at all and they’re staying small. They have been fairly damage free outside of the lockout sucking the life out of leaves from the lower branches.
After seeing the mites finally letting up my body is crashing and I need sleep before work.
Now the pics upload

Looking really good 
So far no sign of mites left after 3 days in a row of spraying the tent down top to bottom. Lifecycle officially disturbed. Now all my money is going to ipm. With my new pan I’m excited to cook again, so I’ll be making a lot of grilled cheese, sauteed onions, sauteed garlic, fried cheese, sauteed mushrooms, eggs, potato pop-ups, pan fried quesadilla, and really anything else that comes to mind. This pan won’t stick to anything no matter how burnt. It passed the burnt cheese test🤤
They all got a drench to saturate the soil. Mostly the herbs getting enough to stop kicking up dry dirt when I add water no matter how much runoff they made. I slowly watered the rest of the tent making sure they took all the water. I also raised the lights up to the top of the tent. I saw a decent amount of light burn symptoms lately
Jelly pie seems to have an odd growth pattern. One of the leaves on each node always has 10 fingers. The other side has 11 fingers like Normal.
