Bugs?

[Leappy]

I woke up to this about a week ago.. I had read a few posts and tried to find a pic of something similar, the closest I saw was Thripe? I had no idea but decided to give it a spray of Aphicide Plus - covers a few such as Aphids, Mealy Bugs, Scale Insects .. I also gave them a good feed. Did not loose any leaves and the plant looked fantastic within a day or two. Was I just lucky let me know pls

Did you find any bugs? To me that looks more like a nutrient problem?

Hi Crane.. I found some fine webbing over the plants so I guess I just jumped to conclusions (newbie) so I really dont know what fixed it.. the feed or the spray. Would you know what nut problem it could have been?

Well I'm no expert in deficiencies, maybe in this case I would have guessed calcium, but if you found webbing then it's more probable that it was spider mites. They like low humidity. Remember to re-apply the stuff you used because the ones you nailed will have laid eggs that will hatch later.

Thanks Crane..Oh of course.. did not think of that, how often would I re-apply Crane..

Well I remember reading something like spraying every 3 days for two weeks, but better google that to make sure. They are irritating bastards those mites.
