Ah, OK, that makes the 'mechanical' part of it the look really obvious.
I suspect you do not have a humidity gauge in the room you keep your plants in?

I get some 'rot' spots on some of my Aloes when it has been particularly humid and cool. (I would not call it cold) It is usually just a spot here and there that are ugly, but never go furhther than that because especially the last few years the periods of high humidity never last very long here.

thanks

thanks , its a possibility . My plants are under the artificial lights for the first time over winter and because they are continuing to grow i have felt the need to water. That being said there is not a lot of air movement in the room because opening the window would let cold air in . I am thinking now that all the water in the pots in one small place could let off a lot of moisture after watering.. it did not look like aloe mite to me, which is good because i fear the day i bring it into my collection.
thanks
Steve
