Yay i got good mites then!!! man im a hoe i use to set traps n kill them :(
Somehow I doubt you have "good" mites. Mites always start towards the bottom of a plant and in/around the soil. Then they crawl up your plant and leach it for all its worth and multiply like crazy. You should check the undersides of your plant leaves, see if there is any damage or signs of egg laying. Get some miticide to spray on your plant and soil immediately. But if you just want to "hope" these are "good" mites. Then I "hope" you don't lose your entire crop!

Don't mess around! Put those mites down!

yep exactly but i keep gettin people saying they think its somthing bad. ive been growin for a while and have many friends that grow and no one has experienced this so im about ready to kill the little suckers but yeah its pretty much what u said but they are so small its hard to see if thats them but i would say yeah
Lemme guess, they're only in the top inch of your soil and around the rim of the pot? Haven't seen any on the plant, yeah? So they COULD be hypoaspis miles, and those ARE a good mite...check out the link...are these the little buggers??
