Hi Fade,

the picture above is a Broad mite attack, you need a 30x magnifying glass to see them very well..., the treatment consist of 2 sprays of abamectin and paraffinic oil, or organic rotenone/pyrethrum and paraffinic oil with a 3 day interval, because of the life cycle of the broad mite, in the first spray you kill the adults but the egg hatch in 2 days...so you need eliminate them too...example...you spray on monday, next spray is thursday...
you need to spray early in the morning...when temp is not hot, around 7am so you don't burn the leafs...

In a 16 liter backpack sprayer is 10cc or ml of abamectin and 25cc or ml of paraffinic oil...

hope it helps...

Excellent info Hector. I just googled it and the pictures look very simular to the problem Brent is having.:)
 
Thank you for the info Hector. I have been spraying regularly but I dont have the products you listed.
So far most of them seem to be doing well.

Glad I can help, you can find them an any agriculture products shop, it's abamectin 1.8 EC, and insect oil...the bahamas they grow a lot of citrus..so they use acaricides...you should find it easy...

Here is a Bonda Ma Jacques plant that I never got around to transplanting untill recently.
I'm shocked at how big it was able to get in such a small container.

wow, that yellow 7 looks dangerous. Nice and bumpy. Your plants are really filling out nicely with lots of growth over the past 2 weeks.
 
Nice lookin harvest back on the 27th. Don't know how I missed that, must have been on vaca for Memorial day. Those two Fatallis look great too, very healthy! And the Yellow 7 just looks menacing as all hell haha! Keep up the good work, Fade.
 
Thanks all for your kind comments. Plants have really started growing nicely since summer has started rolling around

I took some more pod pics today.
