Update:
Iām going to follow
@ComfortablyNumb plan. I purchased Lady Bugs (coming today), I have and will continue to use
Plant Therapy for now. Deleafing today and will spray again when I complete since it will be easier to get all the leaves considering itās bushy as hell right now. I also purchased that exact microscope and that will be in tomorrow.
I think the photo below confirms the Broad Mites... let me know what you guys think. I pulled a couple leaves off and put under the 60x scope I have and canāt seem to find anything. Might have seen some eggs but also could just be pores or trichs. The leaf color and taco show signs of broad mite damage to me. Some leaves look like they have TMV now which is another sign from what I understand.
Hoping to save this round. I know the lady bugs will help but might be too late as their life cycle when they are babies might just hit close to harvest time.
Doing a bit more research, Iām going to use Suffoil X with what I currently have in Veg/Cones, next day release the predatory mite Amblyseius Cucumeris. I actually think thatās what I found in the pics and videos I sent.. look very similar to me.. shape, color, number of legs.. the fact I could spot it with my naked eye. If itās the case, amazing how naturally a predator came in... kinda mad I killed the little guy now. Curious if you guys think itās Cucumeris now too. See pics below.
