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

I noticed recently that a few of my leaves have these white spots on them with a little damage on them as well. Would this be linked to my slug problem? Or is it something completely different? I have been applying neem oil every few days but it doesn't seem to get rid of pests.

creepy crawliesI got creepy crawlies. Clipped the entire leaf, mixed abt 3 drops of neem oil in 100-150ml tap water and sprayed the f*ck out of it. Then I checked the rest of my plants, found nothing but decided to spray them anyway. When should I re-apply? Any adverse effects of neem oil?

First grow mid-flower pest?Help! Is this pest damage and what kind? I have about 100-200 ladybugs in the grow tent, and have for about a month now so I would be surprised if it were aphids. The damage is not extensive but there is a little here and there. Cant find anything under leaves.

2 part, first I found a few black dots (picture added to this week) which I thought might be pests but didn't move - research says it could be catapiller droppings but can't find any of those - what else could they be? Second I did find a spider chilling assume he's good?

best leaf insects repellentI have found a few bad insects on my plants past weeks. Does anyone have experience with neem oil? Is it worth a try or would I be better of buying something else?
White vinegar with dishsoap didn't help much.
The bugs are: grasshoppers, stinkbugs, spidermites & fungus gnats.

My plant is short and wide and the center is pretty crowded with leaves but they are all starting to produce trichomes. Is it an issue to have leaves touching each other in this state or do I have to remove some? I don't really want to mess with her in this stage.Week 8
