@JimyTheCook .
I gotta hit the hay. As you won’t have time to get predators in, I’d go out tonight and hit all your plants with what you’ve got..Neem I think you said you’ve got. Then google broad mite control. Once you’ve started with Neem you wont be able to use predators. Broad mites are a friggin pain to get rid of and you’ll have to treat often and for a while, and use different types of sprays.
It may be best to get rid of the one plant showing the infection and start treating the others.
If you can. Put a bag over it, pull it, close the bag and dispose of it well.

IPM.....prevention is better than cure!

if im sleeping in a swag on the ground in winter (might not be snowing but might of and will do) the cold seeps up. But i normally camp in the highland areas and its -c as soon as the suns down

Stoner moment here,

Isn't it much the same effect, because the ground is colder than your body and has more thermal mass?
You're losing body heat.

Earth has a molten core remember and space is really cold...
Earth is the insulator.

More variables to consider such as size of the house, size of the basement, thermal properties of the house etc

Look up ground tied concrete slabs. Good way of maintaining temps in your house

I understand, though underground houses are regarded to be generally much cooler in summer, warmer in winter and have better insulation than above ground.

There must be a good reason right?

Unfortunately yes, we do have broad mites in Australia. We also have the tomato russet mite.

Bastards.. Reckon theres a chance it could be something else like a defiency or toxicicty or wrong ph that could throw symptons similiar to broad mites

Possibly, however it really does look like broad mites to me. If it were a deficiency or really bad ph to cause the new growth necrosis there would accompanying signs.

Sorry m8. If there’s someone else here that’s got better news than me..let’s hope so.

Yea ive been readin up on allot of different sites an not just on weed plants an it all looks to be broad mites. Im hoping i can beat it with sprays might see if i can find miticide or something at bunnings as i reckon itll take to long to order something off the net. Maybe even a good cpl 40degree days as ive read they die from being exposed to high temps seems a long shot as it gets hot as fk round here an it still looks like i got them..
Dont wanna chop all me plants as its to late to start again..
Cheers for the help anyway Ozy, bit of luck i beat the fuckers if it is brd mites
 
theres a new one at bunnings think its richrgro, not sure, seen an add for it says it all organic and uses capsicum and other stuff

to get em sounds ok
