answered grow question 6y ago
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

Thrips after that all the aphids are gone, Orius bugs are enough to eliminate them?
I've got some Thrips, The aphids plague that I had before is totally gone. But it's not a good idea to spray everything in with neem oil since the buds are being formed. I ordered myself 100 Orius bugs. Any other tip?

How would grafting an indica auto on to a sativa photo plant affect the flowering process? Would it slow down?

Bug problem aftermath
So I got rid of my whitefly problem with the amazing dr zymes eliminator. Now I am wondering if I should spray the plants with water to try to get rid of residue perhaps Now rather than doing a wash after harvest ? BTW they should be done within 2 weeks.

Beneficial mites? (Hypoaspis miles)
So I was fixing a problem and found what seem to be beneficial mites? This is my first organic grow and have never dealt with these before. I haven’t notice a overload of them but are they dangerous and will they get worse? Any advice with experience will be much appreciated

Smoked 'pillars
If I accidentally mull up and smoke a caterpillar that's been eating weed it's whole life, is that like eating the worm in the bottom of a tequila bottle?

Hi - newbie here. I noticed that my Autoflower grow has been going OK, Leave development is OK. But my concern is height of the plants. They seem to be growing out and not up! Not sure if this is normal at this stage? Two weeks in thus far.

Scribs
I lucked out, it's female of a landrace wild-collected Sativa from West Africa. The plant has entered the pre-flowering stage on a 13/11 but is still somewhat small due to stress inflicted by my beginner's mistakes in earlier phases. Will she grow more? Should I just clone her?

Huge Slug Problem
Having a huge slug problem at the moment. I looked up the species on the internet and they are known as the Hutt. I have tried using the Force but it won’t work on him. Does anyone have some (creative) ideas on how to get rid of a giant slug. (Just a bit of fun)

Silverfish
I found a silverfish (is this the correct name?) in the soil of a plant; obviously I immediately threw it out and checked if there were others by moving the ground a little, but how do I make sure I make them disappear? or do you know if they can be harmful to the plant? 😭

White specs but not Thrips?
Seeing white specs on the leaves, but no signs of bugs at all. Really looks like thrips but have looked at both plants top to down on 10x and couldnt find any. Could this be something besides bugs??

Wish my issue had a category lol. All my buds have been seeded to some extent and therefore will effect how the buds ripen. I want to know how much seeding alters my harvest timeline, and can I still look at trich's for bud ripeness as the pistils are orange with clear trich's.
