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

Tiny white hairy bugs?
Hi! Does anybody know what those little white hairy bugs are? They're driving me crazy! They jump but don't fly and the plant is not damaged at all. They left a sort of thick cobweb under a leaf... What can I do?

Can someone look at the most recent photos and tell me if this is normal (the close up of the pistils) ? The last two days I haven't see any changes in the plants: no height gain, flowering seems to go slowest. Is this okay?

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.

Why is my plant growing upward so slowly? Temp, light & water are fine. My last auto in a Solo cup was 3x this size by Week 3. I'm not transplanting & will be growing in this container (18 oz) the whole time. No nutes yet--only doing natural (urine fert later this week).

Is my light too close since my plants dont grow vertical that much? They are more bushy right now and Lst is hard to do with them because of their height. Will it effect my yield and im already beginning to see small white pistils, isnt that too early? Thanks

Into week 4 now and looking at other blue mystic journals, she seems kind of stubby and slow. Im guessing this is down to pot size and other novice parts I've played. Any advice or comments would be great.

What do you think is the best time to transfer them to the 12/12 regime because I am limited by a tent height(160x80x80cm) and temp. is going very hot? Also, which feeding schedule you recommend given that they grow in the soil? (AN"Jungle Juice","Sensizim","CarboLoad","BigBud")

White critters
Found these little fuckers on two clone cuttings taken from Glenda. Immediately bagged and tossed both of them. They were on a leaf stem on both, one leaf had turned yellow. Careful inspection of all plants in the same space found no more. What are they and how fucked am I?
