Primarily Infested Seedlings

Pls have a look on the initial infestation of Broad Mite showing downward curling of tender leaves. পাতা নিচের দিকে বেকে গেলে বুঝতে হবে ব্রড মাইটের আক্রমণ হয়েছে।

Tanvir Ahmed  Depending on the crops you are growing, your plants may indicate one or more of a range of problems which may include; magnesium deficiency, heat stress, slow growth, twisted deformed leaves, fungal disease and many others. After checking all these ailments, you’ll find that magnesium levels are ok, temps are ok, humidity levels are ok and all else seems perfect. Then more than likely you will have this broad mite for sure. অর্থাৎ, আপনি এবারে বুঝে নিবেন, এটা Broad Mite এর আক্রমণ ছাড়া আর কিছুই নয়।

Tanvir Ahmed While this mite starts feeding underside of emerging leaves, it secrets a kind of toxin via the saliva coming out from the mouth during feeding. Deformation will show due to the toxin which is also known as a plant growth regulator ( usually mean to decrease growth).

They're about 0.1 mm in size, so invisible by naked eye. You need to kill first whiteflies, because broad mite move or transport from one plant to another by being attached to the appendages of whiteflies or other insects.

Hello Community Members, After 3 days the deformation of Broad Mite infected twigs took this form. I kept it separated from other healthy seedlings. I'll upload heathy seedlings soon of the same age.
