Help with possible fugus or pests

Post by Ankerite »

Hello all

I've recently noticed orange spots on my astrophytum seedlings and I am unsure if it is a fungal infection or a infestation (red spider mites?). I just applied a contact and systemic pesticide to the seedlings incase it is an infestation but I want to make sure that it is not a fungal infection either

The one on the right in this image seems to have quite a bit of damage

Thanks
