The white specks, I'm assuming? Look like spider mites

Yes the white specks. I thought so too but it says I should be able to see them moving and I can’t so that’s what made me post here to ask

Sometimes you really gotta watch for a long time to see movement.

I second the spider mite diagnosis.

#### Wolfen 🐺 replied on 2025-01-10

Most people wouldn't be able to focus enough to see a lot of movement. I use my microscope that attaches to my phone
