I have scoured the web, I believe its some sorta mite that eats leafs. I cant see them but every so often i swear i see a little spec flying around in the light. or like a spec on a leaf i goto wipe off and it jumps off. At first i thought it was static. But they seem to maneuver. Im convinced there is something there because of where the rips happen. Boss thinks its wind / heat / untwisting from n tox .

Ive seen the shits jump out 0of the way when i try to squish them. They are incredibly hard to see and i have amazing eyes. Now to figure out how to kill them.

researched hunter mites to attack them.
Most report more plant damage. Makes sense they feed off pollen when they cant find pests to eat. No pollen = plant damage.
Yeah no.
So boss says floramite + Avid. 2.5 ml ea into 1gal .
Spray entire tent , plant top down and bottom up . Then shake it off. This is 1 hr before lights on.
Repeat for 2-3 days. Then should be good to go. Floramite kills , avid prevents.

So I think Im gonna skip avid. I believe Ive experienced what its like in bud from IL dispensaries. It makes your feet numb and you get leg cramps. Also I dont think it repairs after it happens. So.... My plan is floramite. Vent my tent outside for a week after spraying . Apparently 2 hours sunlight wipes it so technically im only really venting for 2 hours then its excess safety .
Im inviting anyone with pesticide experience to chime in with PPE / advice I should hear before it gets here and i do it.

If you're going to be standing in your tent when you spray Cover all Exposed Skin to include your eyes, I would use a mask as well, not like a dust mask more of like a paint mask that has filters you can get them at Home Depot for like $20 . Be careful spraying that shi+ bro!
