Is this a symptom of spider mites or something else?

ItalianDesertBalconystarted grow question 1y ago

Is this symptom caused by spider mites also, or is this a different issue? There is pale green/loss of color along the veins of two leaves. I’m aware of my spider mite problem, but want to know if there is another issue or just more symptoms of the mites.

Vacuum method: hold a vacuum cleaner hose with a slightly damp cloth in front of it and gently vacuum the affected leaves. Blue sticky traps: spider mites are attracted to blue cards, so placing them near plants helps reduce the population. Biological predators: introducing predatory mites (like Phytoseiulus persimilis) or ladybug larvae can naturally keep spider mites under control. Airflow: spider mites hate wind – strong circulation and good ventilation make the environment much less favorable for them. Biological sprays: Naturalis-L (contains Beauveria bassiana, a fungus that attacks spider mites) Bac-Spray (biological bacteria-based product)
