Peebee,

I started growing tomatoes many years ago and it was at different location (my old house). I new nothing about spider mites then. I taught it was decease that got my tomatoes there. I had no cucumbers near it. Tomatoes died first year from it. Second year I was spraying them with soapy water (soap, soda, epsom salt combination). It was helping to keep them down. But I had to spray every week. I used spray bottle and I had calluses on my hands.
DE is much better.
