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

Anonymous Caller
A caller sent this pic of a bug. His girlfriend went to huge harvest party 200 plants. She came home and had over a dozen of these bugs on her. The caller caught it before she went into their room.

creepy crawlies
I 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?

Insects in soil
I have been noticing that there are some insects living in the soil, I have seen two types, little white bugs and a small brown ´caterpillar’. I have done some research, andsome people suggest to keep the caterpillar since it will eat the bugs. Any ideas on how to deal with this?

Anyone knows if these bugs are doing any harm to the plant?
I have not seen this type of bugs in my garden before and they are only on the two CBG Autos. Also some ants are active across the plant. Does anyone know if these bugs are harming the plants or what they are? 😏

Bugs or no
Do new cannabis leaves sometimes have defects or missing pieces? Mine seem to have a few missing spots and I’m wondering if it’s bugs or something to keep an eye on?
