a few of my plants have yellow/brown spots on the leaves, and a bunch of tiny tiny black dots all over the underside of the leaves. they are about 5 weeks old. i assumed the yellow spots was a nute issue, now i am thinking maybe a pest. what is a good, doesn't-hurt-your-plants- pesticide?

thanks

i didn't notice any movement... but could it be eggs, or larvae, or maybe just a small malnutrition that they will work through?

sounds like classic mites to me...get yourself some insecticide and spray them very well...if the poison doesnt touch the mite it doesnt kill it...and you need to use insecticide to kill the eggs. breeding cycle is every three days so do it with the quickness
