And I don't think they're spider mites because I've had them before and remember them being visible to the human eye, although tiny. There isn't any webbing, and they weren't visible at 40x or whatever my trash loupe is.
Look at them through your magnifying glass then search google for cannabis pests and look at the image tab. Mystery solved

Does it really matter what specific type of mite they are?

I know they're a mite, 90% of which will feed in the same way and have the same life cycle, so should respond to the same treatment

Hoe do you know they are a mite? Sorry if I missed some previous posts

I believe the 'lockout' I was/am experiencing is due to a severe infestation, which makes sense because I have been extremely diligent with pH calibration etc.
It’s not only ph that can cause lockouts tho. And tbh I haven’t heard or read about pests causing a nutrient lockout

I didn’t think russet or broad mites respond well to the same treatment u’d use for say spider mites. Don’t quote me tho just going by memory which isn’t that good these days

But he knows they are mites...just not what kind...and he was "extremely diligent" on his PH....just managed to miss the "severe infestation" of these mystery mites....but unable to take a pic even though homeless people have decent phones. Can post a thousand questions but not do a google image search.

Check out grow light Australia, they make a very nice board that are every bit as good as a hlg panel.


Might have to wait for some stock with all this covid shit Happening as it’s only a small local business. Top notch support but both on the site/email and here in the led section with their forum posts.
Thanks mate. I ended up ordering the HLG 135 V2 from Quick Bloom for $350. It's big enough for a 90x90 tent. Now to find a tent...
