Hello internet,
There is something eating my plants in veg. They were brought from a friend's basement, and were not recovering quickly.
They are in 1 gal pots being fed a 2 part synthetic mix. They get some bennies and teas when they are growing, but they are not doing much. Some leaves are twisting slightly, some are withering and eventually drying, mostly beginning from the tips. Some leaves near the top have rusty chlorosis that looks like Mg deficiency,
Some pics are included as close as I could get with my low-fidelity scope.
It looks like there might be spotted eggs, indicating broad mites, but most of these pests are mostly unfamiliar to me and my standard ipm practices are not making ends meet.
This little red sucker is smaller than any spider mite I have ever seen, and there is a completely different mite looking thing that is less fuzzy than two-spotted spider mites.
I really hope to help these plants back to health. This has been a long battle and my jar is nearing empty. They have put out some new growth, but much of it is slow and irregular.
If anyone has suggestions, I would be grateful!
So far I have tried dropping the humidity, increasing circulation, drying out the substrate until wilting, spraying doktor doom, safer's sulphur, OG Biowar foliar and root packs, and readjusting pH (~6.0) and dimming the lights.
Temp and RH are about 20 C and 40-50%.
Thanks for any feedback!
As always,
