0 J'aimeSpider mites are making the webbing and Aphids are the green bugs along the stems.

Thank you everyone
0 J'aimeAnts are farming the aphids for nectar. Aphids and spider mites are drinking the sap. Spider mites are covering the plant with webs. Trifecta. It looks like a plant you plan to eat? If so, I would avoid insecticides and use Dawn dishwashing water and a soft towel to spray/wipe them off. You can even soak the entire plant in the dish water an hour to suffocate the ones you can’t see including anything in the soil. Rinse well. 🍀🪴

Thank you and yes it is edible. So it’s the ants carrying them to the plant?
0 J'aimeThe ants don’t typically bring aphids to the plant based on my experience aphids this year. They will move them around the plant to new feeding locations.
