It’s a potential vector, obviously, since you previously claimed mites and whiteflies were a “fantasy”.
And here it is staring you in the face, but you still gotta backtrack it somehow, just like “rhetorical” lol.

I’ve had spidermites a few times over the years. I tried a lot of concoctions and finally tried Avid. It killed them with one application. I’ve never had them on flowering plants so never had to deal with that. I catch them early in the veg room and end our relationship there. I bought the bottle of Avid way back around 2000 or 2001 and for all the more you have to use… a couple of drops in the spray bottle of water, the bottle of Avid is almost as full as it was new.

I think I just found that all 4 of my blooming beauties have mites… Which fucking sucks.
I’m at week 2.5 I guess.
Haven’t defoliated yet but kind of have to, so I think I’ll order neem oil & go to town when it arrives… Defoliate first and then spray it down with the oil.
Bueno plan no?

What I was told by someone that has grown for years, is that spider mites will build resistance quickly. You need to rotate products and spray every few days until you can get rid of them. Some debate the effectiveness of neem also. Personally, I use it, but also rotate in some spinosad and azamax. I also use diatomaceous earth to dust my plants. They can build resistance to that.

Yes, it happened on my tomatoes while I was concentrating on my other plants. He even emphasized, spray every leaf, both sides, dripping wet. Spray all the vegetation around the plants as well. You may know the guy from here even, Johnnypotseed had a fight with them recently (I know you know him 
).
Plantwhepherd swears by predatory mites. He has even used them on large commercial grows. There are options to battle these little bastards. Just be persistent.

He told me he knew you from back in the day. After that I made the post that I had been warned about you. Next time I saw him, he said, “why did you do that?” I said, i was just giving him a hard time. “oh” 
I had an outdoor infestation of the little fuckers earlier this year. i tried multiple ways to stop it but what did it was a bottle of predatory bugs. So far.
