I think if you can get it online it’d be worth having it on hand incase this happens again.

I asked a mate what he uses and his response was firstly are you certain it’s spider mites and secondly if you are what type because that affects the treatment he recommends. The only time I had them I was outdoors and we had them to the point where treatment was done with fire unfortunately

It’s not something I generally do but when the alternative is potentially losing everything I would be looking at doing it anyway

What you reckon it’s a lower branch that never reached the hileight of the canopy anyways.

Now I’ll have to watch it the next few days, what kind shock/stress will it do, hopefully responds positively an puts more energy into the rest of the branches.

There is a couple of different ways the plant can respond, it could see it as something like an animal having a chew on it and increase trichome production to make itself stink more, you are right around the time where that’s probably going to be its reaction. The other way it could go is it throws a few stress balls or bananas, this late in the grow that’s nothing to freak about though as sacks would take about a week to start growing and then another few days before bursting plus the 30 days or more seeds take to develop, it won’t have time to complete that process. Option 3 is the plant doesn’t notice and absolutely nothing happens
