I think they are young and the eggs were able to hatch due to a heavy water flush. Been a week and soil still has not dried out yet from the flush. Not sure if its the one that live in the soil and eat roots. I think they come from the crappy MG soil. Not in my other 3 plants Plant has been havin problems but nothing is on the leaves except nute burn and possible ph fluctuation. It recovered quite a bit and seems stable. I am going to transplant it from 2 gal to 5 gal of FFOF.

I've found that a good drench of Neem Oil applied two times, in 10 day intervals kills these suckers proper.
and You are right - If you picked up your MG Soil from Home Depot or another big box store, you most likely brought the suckers home. I challenge anyone to hunt around the garden section of a HD and NOT find spider mites all over soil and or the bases of sale-able plants.

You guys are right. Totally spider mites. Check google images. Good work. 
I have heard if you allow your plants to suck up a dilluted mix of neem oil and slightly warm water a few times in early to mid veg and that usually wards off those bastards. They say to apply this mix on the foliage. More of a preventative measure.
I'm not sure if the neem works systemically(absorption by roots and into the vascular system of the plant).

Its funny how the heat from my scope kills then in few mins. Im assuming Neem oil is best organic kill. There not on leaves yet and im still in Veg day 45 or so. I also give my plants seltzy spray baths which spray the leaves hard with co2. They love the stuff and blow up every use.
