Outdoors - Spidermite Resilience

[quietlybinary]

Hi Everbody!
It is off-season for me as an indoor grower and I am thinking ahead to Spring. Last season I had a controlled case of spidermites on my Ghost Toof and Forum Cookies plants. Does anyone have any experience in which certain strains were not affected as much as others? Do you think that plant aroma/dominance/genetic lineage would make any difference? I am trying to be as preventative as possible.
Thanks in advance,
QB

Maybe you can plant lavender and rosemary plants around your cannabis? Look up natural herbal pesticides. I’m sure eucalyptus thyme rosemary lavender and others in the mi t family will pop up. Anyways those are options. I use lavender tea as a preventative it also kills kites and melts the eggs of pests. It’s the Camphor in the lavender which I believe rosemary has as well as others that melts the eggs. Look it up. I use a cup of lavender and let it soak in 1 litter of water for 48 hrs then strain and water. Dilute it at a ratio of 50:1. I just eye ball a good amount of liquid in 1 gallon and spray away. Hope that helps
