First 2 Seeds failed to germinate in RO water PH'd to 6.5. Last Seed Germinated after 72 hours, took another 48 hours for the tail to get to half an inch, May have been a bad batch :/. Will be doing a mix of korean farming/sip system hopefully it should take another 7 days to settle into my sp + vermicompost + living soil mix.

Your gonna need to treat them and start cleaning your tent every weekend. Not fun but it will save your time and money.

Those are white fly larvae , you gotta clean that tank out every ten days or so and try adding something like hydroguard or beneficials like bacillus thuringiensis to prevent contamination

@Leocult those are the larvae for bugs and the other is a common garden worm Obviously a flying insect has laid her eggs in your reservoir and they have hatched. A small cap full of cooking oil or neem oil put in your res will form a film across the top stopping the bugs from doing this again and the oil won't harm your plants Hope this helps

I see you’re struggling with fungus gnats, try a layer or two of hydroton clay pebbles on top of your soil. The idea is to trap them and suffocate them. If not, I’d do a layer of perlite and then the clay pebbles. You’re doing well for first time growing

@MaryJaneUSA, Yeah My medium seem to have been pre-infested with them :/ been keeping them under control. I'm broke af though so trying my best to keep the costs down while managing the problem. at the moment it very minimal compared how it was in the start. When i re-use the medium i'll sort out the issue before planting again.

@MaryJaneUSA, I tried to transplant clovers i found in my garden outside, but they died. Will try again for my next grow but will grow them from the start.

So far the whole grow has been pretty frustrating. Firstly I don't have humidity control in my cupboard where i grew it the first 6 weeks, secondly I don't have extra heating so for about 3 days of every 7 days temps dropped to 8-12 degrees celcius definately shocked the plant and slowed growth. My airflow was terrible as well. and lastly, fungus gnats from day 1.. before i start any grow now I will have to clean everything sterilize everything. My worm bin has also been hit hard, I believe the person who sold me the worms already had a fungus gnat infestation, this was trasfered to the pots when i prepped the pots which was at night and i didn't realise the problem. I have to restart my worm bin also from scratch now. have to get most of my worms out, possible rinse in bacteria (the one that takes care of fungus gnat larvae) water and prep a whole new bin. I may sundry the old worm bin casting as well as spray it with some organic insecticide before sun dry so I don't lose 3 months of castings. I can still make compost tea with it. if i can get a fine enough mesh netting to make a compost tea without allowing anything through apart from the nutrients.
