Hi Bro the most of springtail's family are considered a minor pest as the mostly feed on organic material as molds, fungi and algae and actively partecipate to humus build up. Both diatomaceous earth and neem are effective to control them. Cheers

How to treat spider mites in flower?
Best spider mite treatment while in early flower? I want to completely knock these things out, but I'm losing the battle. There are no webs, but they're still present and you can see all the white marks on the fan leaves. Please help!

Will neem oil in bloom ruin grow??
Yesterday 2 days before week 5 bloom I spotted spider mites on some leaves with my telescope. I have only been growing for a year now. Question is did I ruin the grow. I did a light spray and tried to only spray leaves but it is impossible to not get nugs as well.

I'm under attack!
I think I have a solo predator here guys! The damage is localised to the left main branch in 2 places and the top of the main cola and just below. I have made up some washing up liquid pesticide and drenched the whole plant and vegetation around. Could it be something else?

4/5 of my plants have been flowering for 2 weeks on a 20/4 cycle, while 1 remains in the vegetative state. Should I try and induce flowering by switching to a 12/12 cycle? If so will it effect my other plants?

Spider mites?
My partner just cut some clones off of a pre-flowering plant & put them in a root rain spray cloned. Been 2 days since he cut the clones. No roots yet but he’s wondering if he has spider mites & if so what he should do. Do you all notice anything wrong?
