That is a dead basil I forgot to remove. I was spraying my Montserras which have a mealy bug problem and then I see that.
I'm scared of spiders, spider mites and bugs in general. The mealy bugs was already pushing it 😭 what is that?

Spider mites 🥲
I don’t know, but given that it’s all over the bottom of the black tray, I’m assuming mold because I’m not sure why an insect would choose to do that instead of building in a better location.
In either instance, throw that plant out and hose/wipe that tray down, maybe spray some hydrogen peroxide one it (kills bacteria and mold), and carry on keeping an eye out for anything weird in the remaining plants.
Spider mites building web means its very advanced stage… your all othet plants are at risk.

There’s no way spider mites could make all that. That’s a regular spider, probably here to help you with your mealy problem. You’re fine.
Do you see spider mites? If so, then it’s spider mites. If not, then a spider or mold or something else. I had a spider mite infestation this bad, it’s very obvious that it’s mites.
