While checking on a super skunk and its trich’s I saw a unwelcome visitor. So I turned on the video and made some mite porn to share. Check the little booger in action,. It is a adult as it has 8 legs. No webs on the plant. Would have never seen this with out a microscope that i check trichs with. My octopots sit outside when they are drying out and I do recycle some soil (sunshine mix#4) so they probably came from that…
Considering getting a cheap microwave to sterilize the soil from this point out. My soil is neutral in nutes. Mean it don’t have any. I use TPS1 and already put micros in my grow so I am not worried about killing good stuff.
I wash all my grows so of course they got a good soaking and the mites ended up in davy jones locker.
Just wanted to share since I caught the little booger in action.
