is floramite safe for orchids?
 
Is floramite safe for orchids? Also, would you recomend spraying an entire collection(30 plants) or just the infected? I think only a few are infected. I ask because of the mites ability to build resistance. I already have floramite due to a massive spidermite infestation on my cannabis plants. And will be alternating with avid. So no bother recomending cheap or home made solutions. Thanks for any help.

Ovation is a good miticide and IS expensive. You DO have to rotate it. Don't know about floramite. If I were you I wouldn't type that plant name in a public place !

SAS - Both products that you have are safe for orchids, as to spraying only the infected plants, bad move, spray everything and make sure you spray again in 7-10 days.

its not odd at all that most things now used for hydroponic gardening are also paralleled to orchids.

I think hydroponic gardening sounds better and less intimidating. And hydroponic gardening isnt illegal.

just sayin
