Magnifier comes today so I’ll have a better idea than

Spider mites. About had a heart attack when I use the magnifier on it and a spider was staring straight at me

Saw some webs too and some eggs

They are all visibly going from the crop to the naked eye but I suspect if I look with the magnifier on the crop still that there will be some somewhere

What should I do?

I posted the link above for them if you are i hydro going have to consult @garrigan62 for some good mite killing recipes I have had the little bastards and found dunking my plants to the trunk in insecticidal soap worked nice but easier in soil since I just bagged pot to keep soap out of roots. Floramite azamax and mighty wash come to mind for hydro assuming nothing is in flower yet floramite is fed to plants making them toxic to many pests but requires time to flush out

Was hoping I was wrong sorry for the bad news :frowning: the floramite isn’t cheap but actually makes plants toxic to pests and mites making them die off by entirely and none of your plants a safe place to reproduce
