Yes another spider mite thread. I have two plants going now, a fuggle and cascade, neither one has any visible damage to it, but the rest of the garden is anothe story. My ghost chili plants have taken a beating lately. I have what looks like spider mites, if i shake my plants usually 5-10 little white spiders fall out and proceed to climb their webs back under the leaves. I can visibly see them in the palm of my hand if i pick them up, but they are no bigger than a pin dot. They are always white with what looks like a little black to them.
From looking around the net, spider mites are usually hard to see. I've been spraying with a miticide about every 4 days and it's slowly diminishing. My concern is that they are friend rather than foe. If i get a chance to snap a pic i will. But could this be a mite infestation?
