Last night I was checking some old mothers for spider mites, I did find a few spider mites on a few leaves but I also found a different kind of mite on a few leaves.
They were by themselves on the leaf, there was about 5 of them on the leaf I looked at. They were smaller than spider mites, very hard to even see under 45x.
They were clear, more so tear drop or oval shaped, with what looked to be 2 antennae coming out of their bum. They dont appear to have harmed the plant as far as I can see, but I dont know if they are bad mites or good mites.
I did release some predator mites about a year ago, but don't think these could be them as they dont look like the predators I used. And I just dont know how they could have survived with so many nukings of neem over the year.
I have been looking at pictures and can't figure out what kind of mite these were.
I know they are not broad mites, russet mites, spider mites, Phytoseiulus persimilis, Neoseiulus californicus, or Mesoseiulus longipe .
If you know any kinds of mites other than these that might like cannabis plants could you name them so I can look them up?
