Bugs. Organic Miracle grow.

So I have a lil sprout BlueCheese that I just took the saran wrap off of....and there are some sort of mini cloudy looking mites i've been smashing. There was quite a bit of moisture in there, so I'm kinda worried.

Anyone know what they may be or what route to take considering it's only a few days old?

Thanks in advance for any help or input.

I just noticed, so i'm gonna try and get a pic up asap.

i would have to see a pic, let the soil dry out for a couple days and place a few lady bugs on her, she should be fine.

I tried to take a pic. They are so small my 7.2 megapixel cam cant even pic them up.

A narrow bug that is cloudy is all I can say at the moment.

Not sure if they change form or not yet, i'll keep this updated.

i am a photographer bro, that camera will work...pull the bug out. place it on a white surface. set your camera on flowerx2.....it will work!

does it look like this??

Nope, i'll wait til I can find another one and try to get the camera to focus.

I know it can take it, just having trouble focusing on it. Killed the ones that were visible to me as soon as I could.

once i see it i can tell you what it is.
sucks when they are hard to catch...next time you water they should come to the top.

i think i might of had mites like this, they were tiny tiny white mites, and they were very abundant. And i agree, would not be easy to take a picture of. I got this spray botttle at home depot call ORGANOCIDE, used it once, and they were gone, also a good pesticide if u have that white powder mildew on leaves.

yeah if they are that small i agree they may be mites.

Well, I've been waiting trying to find more...watered and still see nothing else.

I dont know what the deal was/is....

Like I said before, I had the cup saran wrapped and when I took it off there were maybe 5-6 of the lil guys and one gnat like bug flew out.

But since then I have not been able to find anything.

Not sure what the scoop is.

Ok....So, they are back...and in mass numbers.

I have been trying and trying to get one to show up via a picture with my camera.

They are sooooo small that I cant seem to find them in the photo after i snap em.

These bugs are literally microscopic. The size of a grain of salt or smaller.

But they are all over the place now. And they move rather fast for being so small.

Anyone know what they are?

What should I treat the soil with? They plant is just a sproutling, but is Bluecheese and I would love to salvage her.

Please help!!!

Edit - This pic looks similar to what I am seeing. The little critters on the side of the pot.
