Mites or Paranoia?

I found a couple leaves with some spots on my Krypto - 6 weeks into flowering. Are these spider mite eggs? See photo of leaves and under microscope top and bottom of leaves. Plant looks otherwise healthy with no webbing or anything.

I cannot tell what I am looking at but it doesn't reaaaaaallly resemble mites. I'm not 100% sure. Where did you take the leaf from? I cannot decipher eggs in the photo it is very blurry. Here is a picture of a dead spider mite I slayed in a two week battle. Hope that helps ur search

You stumped me, homie. It does look like something is suckin that sap.. It looks like PH too.. Good luck

Ugh.... i took the leaf from near the top of the plant.

It does look like the little red things that are on your stem there.

Mites. You can see the eggs on picture #6.

Oh wow I thought you were going to say the bottom of the plant. No webbing? What kinda lights do you run?

Spider farmer led - temp around 80-81 and 45% humidity or thereabouts.

Often when I find mites, I see webbing firstly. Very rarely will I find damage or eggs first. But also, I am on my plants like Satan on fire

I do not see webbing as of yet. I saw the leaf damage and put it under a scope. I don't know what to do now since I am in flower.

I'd try and get a clearer picture to identify before making any decisions. Spider mites or broad mites, which one? if there are mites you gotta get them off and out

Inspect the rest of the plant. Look under leaves that look like they have very little, newer damage as that is where the mite probably is.

**edit and if you find the mf... Make an example out of him for any remaining mite that be thinkin about a snack!

I took a couple other leaves off, but I don't see anything on them.

But how? What should I do?

I can spot mite eggs from about half of that microscope zoom. They are clear balls. If you see clear balls under your leaves those would be eggs. My only suggestion from here would be stop cutting off ur leaves and confirm your issue. Once you confirm your issue you can fix it. Hopefully they just were on that one leaf!

A q-tip with hydro peroxide on one side and water on the other side, wiping and cleaning under the leaves you are concerned about, can help ease ur paranoia

Honestly looks like could be white fly. But I don't want to lead you down the wrong path so I am asking you to confirm ur issue

Should I just clean all the leaves with hydrogen peroxide. Do you rub the peroxide on and then the water side of qtip? I am so devastated!! I am not sure how to confirm issue. My scope is connected to my laptop. Should I scope all the leaves? I didn't see the clear balls, but I was looking at the dark red dot things.

If you wipe the red dot with a napkin, is there a red streak?

I wouldn't go as far as scoping all the leaves man. Just a quick run through on the girl rubbing the leaves with ur finger tips and treating any leaves you're concerned about with the q-tip exactly as u said above. Peroxide will boil any eggs it touches
