My Dahlia had spider mites. The mites are all gone now, but the plant isn’t bouncing back. Any suggestions on what I can do?

Would 100% prefer to be in the ground in full sun with properly amended soil

0 Mi piaceSpidermites lay eggs under the “skin” of the leaf, so even when the visible stuff is gone, they often reappear and require more treatment. If you’re confident the infestation is totally eradicated, there’s nothing to be done about the damage already done but it *could* send out new growth — you’ll just have to wait it out 😕
