Every year I have to deal with spider mites. For such little guys they do a lot of damage. I've just read that high nitrogen is attractive to mites so it's no wonder they are here early.
This photo shows the top of a leaf infested with them. Those white dots are a tell tale sign.
I've treated the plant with Avid three times over the past nine days. This is the only way to interrupt their life cycle. Fortunately, I caught this early and only a couple of leaves got infested.
