Where do red spider mite come from?
I have been caring for some seedlings of a plant I should not be
growing and it looks as though "someone up there" has decided I should not grow them, even as a curiosity! (The substance is supposed to be good for glaucoma which I have!!!) They were looking OK before Christmas but when I came home after a week away they looked a bit sad. I thought they were dry or cold or both. Deterioration continued and then a maginfying glass showed me it is red spider mite. I have had this problem on other plants, but not for at least 3 years. Where have they come from? None of the other plants nearby, in my living room, are affected. They don't fly like carrot fly do they? Pam in Bristol |

Sativa or Indica reduces interoccluar pressure very effectivly & has less side effects than the pharmecutical treatments, though shouldn't be used as a complete replacement. http://www.bonsaigarden.net/ftspidermite.asp has lots of info on spider mite. If you need more links on growing C. Sativa, contact me off list & I'll give you some good URLs. |

I would comment though that your treatment may need some review as it appears you have managed to not only snip my intitial statement which stated "shouldn't be used as a complete replacement" but also introduced a period which completely changes the context of the sentence. |

I commented on your remark about side effects. I wouldn't recommend anything other than getting professional advice from a doctor. There are a frightening number of people, who go blind for no good reason in UK every year. Glaucoma is not a joke, nor is it a thing to be treated by an amateur. -- Martin |
