Hello Everyone,
Firstly, thank you for accepting my registration. I had not planned for this to be my first post and I beg forgiveness if this is a repeated topic. I couldn't find anything like this.
I thought I had spider mites. Have had them in the past and managed them successfully. But now I don't think it is. I've a 60-120x scope and I don't see a living, moving animal anywhere. All I see are white spots that are so microscopic I can't get a photo. The yellow is only on one leaf. This is the best I could do. I was going to spray them with homemade insecticidal soap using the same formula used on the spider mites. But these aren't spider mites. I thought I saw spider mite eggs. But they're not. They're mostly white or transparent, almost like baby trichomes.
I do have a few fungus gnats and have yellow sticky stuff for them. Very few however and the plants are growing vigorously. One last issue was they suffered heat stroke at 3 weeks of age before they came indoors. To my amazement, they very slowly revived and after almost a month, they're flourishing. I've done my first manifold and am ready to put it into flower but this photo is of that plant and I'm not sure what to do now. I need to sort this out first.
I've been growing since 1981. I've had thrips, spider mites and fungus gnats in the past and dealt with them successfully. I've never been stopped in my tracks.
Kind comments, suggestions or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
