Classics & Kush

Welcome comrades in horticulture, ACHTUNG! Aphids! I had a bit of a scare this week as I brought my chilli plant inside from the cold. I didn't inspect it closely enough and became aware of my aphid problem when I spotted them on my cacti some hours later... Then a few hours of maddly inspecting my plants, washing bugs off, applying soapy water etc. At no point since have any bugs been spotted on my cannabis plants so I think we got away with it - still, we must remain vigilent against the bug threat. Would you like to know more? Other than the crawlies, there is little to report. The plants progress at pace, Northern Lights is the smallest at this point. Roots starting to show at the bottom of the pots two days ago, another few days to develop those roots before they get potted up. Outside temperatures have been very low, but I think we're just about handling it in the grow room - the heat mats seem to be doing a great job of keeping the root mass at a good temperature overnight. I'm definately getting better at setting these lights up for seedlings - currently at around 25cm above the canopy and ~25% power - seems to be doing the job well enough, but with room for improvement! Thanks!
