    Mite identification help

    Is this a typical spider mite? Did not see the two spot identifier.

    Yep, you got The Borg. (spider mites)

      Worth trying to eradicate on young plants still in veg? Or just scrap and nuke grow room? I understand it can be quite the task to try and eradicate rather than toss and start over.

        If you're not too far along I'd go nuclear. They're nicknamed the Borg for a reason.

          Put some sand on top of the soil and let that chew up their ectoskeletons die fuckers

            You have a decision to make about the future of these particular plants, but more importantly, do you know where they came from?
            completed 7 grows
            what I have learned so far:
            environment maters more than nutrients
            at least a dab of nutrients in every watering
            effective flushing before harvest is critical to quality

              I recently saw that you can buy packs of phytoseiulus persimilis on line, these things eat Borg for breakfast....literally!!! Hope this helps...
              The more I know, the better I grow.

                  I was asking if the plant was outside.

                Ants wrangle bugs like cattle; aphids spider mites etc. For my outdoor grow I got rid of the ants then co2 bombed the plant three times a week for three weeks. Killed em dead and my plants loved it.
