I have soil mites at the moment. Everything ive read says that they are fine for the plant. I let the plants go through an extra day with out watering hoping some would die off. Well alot did die off but now some are on leaves and stalks probably in some of the buds as well what should i do? Ive defoliated alot of the leaves that had alot but i know i didnt get them all.

Identifying the soil mites is important. If your plants are healthy the mites are most likely beneficial predators. Predators are fast moving. Don’t kill your plants trying to kill beneficial bugs.

@jmystro there were a bit more than my liking there’s still some of them in there putting in work, just curious if i end up smoking a few of these guys how that’s gonna be cause some seemed to die on the plant

@2phrogs Maybe try a soilless grow if even good bugs bother you.

@jmystro i wouldn’t say they bother me but 10 thousand of them in a 2×3 is aggressive also id prefer not to smoke bugs so i was making sure if i do end up firing these pups up in a bowl im good! appreciate the insight

@2phrogs If you have that many then they have a food source keeping them around. It’s often from over-watering causing an increase in decaying organic matter.
