Yup i had em. Broads. Look for clear bugs with dots on em. If not in flower i say bury the plants in total with tattoo green soap. Kills tgem. The eggs n all.one treatment. I spray all over under n all do not drench soil. But some on it is ok. It is 30% alcohol by vol in a lavender oil soap.
It will not dry leaves out it actually conditions them. I rinse soil good n add microbes afterwards just to feel better. It kills all bugs and funguses. I mix 5ml in a 32oz sprayer. I do rinse plants in total too when i rinse soil. About 20 mins after i spray em down.
Im no pro just my hands on trick to rid them bastards.
Been there and done that, when I see problems with the girls, I do a scope for these borg first thing. I've try different remedies, such avid and forbid which work with multiple
treatments. But I also had them with girls in flowering and you cannot use these systemic treatments in flower. Out of desperation, I try Safer Insect soap in flower with about
3 treatments, 3 days apart and it worked. This product kills the egg also. The best part is once successful you just wash it off the girls. Whenever I see somebody with broad or
russet mites, I feel for you and post this simple remedy for these mites.
