Possible Pest Problem (All white worms.)
AGrowerNotAShowerstarted grow question 4 years ago
Hello everyone. I found two tiny worms in the runoff of one of my plants in coco coir. My first thought was gnats, but there’s no dark end. I also read it could be springtails. EC levels in runoff are a little high, but pH is good and the plants looks better than ever. Thanks!

Root maggots are the larvae of fungus gnats. Fungus gnats resemble tiny flies. They lay their eggs in wet soil, and will appear in cases when the top layer of soil is wet for too long. The root maggots that result will look like tiny white worms. Hope this helps! Happy growing!👊

@NorCal_Kannabliss I had read that they have black ends, so I had my doubt because this one is all white. But I just found a gnat in my grow tent, so you’re right. Hopefully it’s not two different problems. Thanks for your input.

translucent pest in soilHi, last watering I've seen tiny translucent insects (about 1 mm) emerging from the soil. They are fast and can jump like a flea. I assume they live in soil. What are these little monsters, should I worry about them and what should I do ? TIA

First Grow 4 weeks into Veg - Let my humidity get too high for 1 night. Need help with mold/septoria/?Last 3 days I've pruned diseased leaves every morning, foliar sprayed peroxide leaves & topsoil, & added some to watering solution. Is only affecting one plant in tent. Humidity no longer issue (was waiting 4 inline fan). If I keep pulling off leaves it's going to die anyway.

What and why?What are these and do I need to address it?
I'm a couple of weeks in to my grow and just spotted these little critters when I was cleaning my run off saucers. I'm guessing there's more inside the soil are they harmful to my plants?

Partial Harvesting and flushing the medium.Can I do partial harvesting of the flowers that are ready and leave the other to ripe on the plants for longer? If yes, how should I proceed with flushing the substrate with plain water? I need to get rid of the salts before harvesting, even if harvesting partially. Please help.2 years ago

Spider mites problemThere is any way to get rid of spider mites? I've tested with: SMC spray (spidermite control), Spruzit spray, predator mites (spidex vital 2000)
None of them worked, I've been fighting this for like 1 year its more or less under control but its being hard and boring
Maybe sulfur?Other. Bugs

Do I just hose it off and proceed as normal? Or hose it off and give to my most leechy smoking friend?Looks like mould, but I'm guessing spider mites.
I tried the 3 days of dark, pulled it out of the cupboard and it had this big clump on it. There was the odd spider mite before the cupboard.
Basically just wondering if I'll die sooner if I try and clean it up and smoke it???

What nutrient deficiency is this?What nutrient deficiency is this? Or is it nutrient burn? I'm watering with 5.5 PH using half strength Nutes, Root booster & Calmag. I don't think it relates to spiders mites since I can't see any with my 30x magnifier. Thank you so much in advance.
