I was just looking at some leaves under a 30X hand held scope and noticed some small, clear mites. They are about 1/2 the size of a spider mite. I have not seen this type of mite before and am not seeing damage like you would see with spider mites. They are very fast movers and seem to be on the top and bottom of the leaves. Are broad mites this size and so they move really fast?
Thanks.
How did you get rid of them?
I tried fighting them unsuccessfully for months...finally I gave up and killed everything, bombed my rooms twice and then painted them. That was over a year ago and everything has been fine since.I run multiple rooms and they were everywhere. I no longer get clones from shops.
Coir, predatory mites will not help. I have tried various ones lady bugs are the best BUT they do not help when the mites are already taking shit over. This is in my opinion I don't know if anyone else has had success. I have successfully removed mites from multiple rooms. My process took over 3 weeks to completely eliminate and had to be done while plants were still in veg. Take off one of your big fan leaves from the top where you think the mites are. Put a lighter to the bottom of the fan leave as you are watching to see and as the fan leaf curls up from the fire you will see the bastards burn in hell. The reason I do this is to see how deep they have infiltrated my plants. Sometimes there are a shit ton more on one plant and none on the plant next to it.
