you didn't have bulb mites. For one they die with out high levels of moisture (info from the owner of a beneficial insect company). second, the same owner told me that there are no products on the market labeled for bulb mites and no known bacterial or fungal threats (ie BT). Third, they live in soil and can not live in pure coco. Putting my moms in pure coco saved me when I had them. Forth , bulb mites don't have antennas.
check out the link below and scroll to the bulb mite section. They have a great close up pic of a bulb mite. If I remember right, that pic originated from UC Davis.

I just found out I've had bulb/broad mites for the last three years. My plants were so mutated and fucked up that I threw a bunch away. I posted about it here : https://www.thcfarmer.com/community/threads/bizarre-plant-mutation-mosaic-virus-or.61742/
I had a 300x scope and I saw lots of little globes, but I assumed those were resin glands as I couldn't see any legs or antennae.
Now I know :nailbiting:
bulb mites don't live on the leaves so much. They hang out in the roots. They are very visible to the naked eye. Put a slice of raw potato with skin on the soil surface and wait 12-24 hours and check it. If you see white mites then you might have them. Your plants look revegged some how. Are you sure you have a trust worthy timer? Do the potato check and let us know what you find. Good luck!
wait......... bulb mite or broad mites? that would be like saying i have some habenero/jalepeno peppers. where did you find the globes? roots or leaves?
what is this?
Jelly fish or a paratrooper hitting the waterwhat is this?
