How do u get Broad Mites or Russet Mites?

Many answers to this question. From an infected clone, from a pregnant bug that hitched a ride on your shoes, through an unsealed grow room, from the soil you bought at a grow store, from a buddy who had an infestation.
The real question is what do you plan to do if you have them.

spraying with neem oil.

Try some predatory mites. Should wipe out the population.

 

[BapusO]

don't know what that is.

They are benificial bugs that hunt pest mites and do not cause any harm to your plants.
