spunky1,
Don't think I have ever had spider mites before, but I keep reading that if the daylilies are kept watered and not allowed to dry out the spider mites will leave them alone. I know you have irrigation for your plants, so my question is (obviously watering does not stop them) but does it even slow them down or is that stuff just being repeated and is really just a bunch of hooey! For those who actually do have spider mites I think it would be good to know if they are just wasting water when trying to get rid of spider mites. I could see it might take a long period of time that a commercial grower might not be able to tolerate, but do you think it is even worth a try? How much and what kind of damage do spider mites do to daylilies and do you have any idea how long it would take them to do considerable damage?
