Hey Blue Cheese Auto colleague! :) The8thChevron already found the right mold spider i guess! I had mites in former grows, they are hard to eradicate... For myself I would use: 1) spray plant (3 time every 3 days) with: - BAC - plant vitality plus - water-soluble Neem Oil Spray the whole plant except the flowers - also the back of the leaves! 2) Put 5-10 ML water-soluble Neem Oil into one Litre the watering - three times in a row. 3) Pour a bit of Neem Cake (or crushed neem seeds) to floliage the soil. 4) let them dry 2-4 days as much as possible before watering again for a week Greets and peace!

Hi ! Het gaat hier inderdaad om een aantal mijten. Ik dacht eerst aan baby roofmijten, die waren handig geweest en zouden je planten kunnen helpen, maar ik denk dat de fungusmijt (zoals The8thChevron aangeeft) meer voor de hand liggend is. Je geeft zelf aan dat het er niet heel erg veel zijn en je al neemolie gebruikt. Je hebt zelf de oplossing al gevonden😉 Hiermee zou het normaal voldoende moeten zijn en zouden ze moeten weggaan. Ik zou niet voor teveel stress gaan zorgen, aangezien je vermeld dat je al veel problemen hebt gehad. Aangezien je de neemolie gekocht hebt, zou ik ze dus zeker gebruiken, maar wees hier zuinig mee. Lees je er goed over in. Veel succes!🤙🌱

Tyrophagus putrescentiae I believe. Dogs commonly bring them into the house although they can get in any number of ways. Its a fungus mite that won't really hurt your plant. Getting rid of them can be as easy as letting your coco dry out completely. Your plant won't be happy not getting water, but it should decimate their population. Other option is just living with them although they will keep breeding.
