  1. hi i recentley got some bud and went to check out the chromes and theres these tiny maggots only viewable through the microscope they are cigar shaped and have feelers on one end......any ideas......cures?
     
  2. without seeing them i think they might be caterpillars. i've got them on both my outdoor and indoor ladies....real pain in the ass to deal with. how many larvae did you find? were there little black specs near them?
     
  3. no, no black spots.they are soo tiny you cant see them with the naked eye.and they are still alive and on the plant matter even after you dry it.it seems they are eating plant cells but leave no damage to the naked eye, but you see some damage through the scope.
     
  4. They sound like common Leaf Mites.

    Freak
    :smoke:
     
  5. oh and there is mabey between 2-10 on any givin leaf.take into consideration the peice of leaf would be smaller than half your pinky nail.
     
  6. A Neem oil spray will get rid of them.

    They are nothin, compared to Spider Mites.

    Freak
