    I have what looks to be spiderlings living in my soil.  They are not mites.  Way bigger.  No magnification needed.  Very fast.  Brown/redish in color.  Will not even approach the plant.  They stay in the soil.  It’s ocean forest amended with gaia green top dressings. I also use stash blend occasionally. Plant looks amazing. No signs of pests. No webbing, no stipplings, no damage whatsoever that I can tell.  Inspected entire plant with 60x loupe.  They appeared after watering.  Medium was fairly dry, 4 or 5 days without watering.  Soil was slightly hydrophobic but when the water soaked in, all these spiders started coming up from the soil.  Any help is appreciated.  I posted a video.  Hope it’s good enough quality.  They are hard to see. https://quickshare.samsungcloud.com/vid18hzv841z
