Ive heard about russet mites. They're no joke. At least youre ready for next year to kick their ass if you get them again and you still got a harvest off.nuggs said:I had another bad year Brother. I had russet mites this year. Another lesson learned. A hard one for sure , I never even knew what it was until this year. I got beat the f--- up. I'm not mad and still was able to control them enough to get a harvest. I'm thinking of running a thread this next year on prevention. I for sure know a bunch that others that never dealt with it know. I did so much research last year I could write a book.
