Hello Here's some tricks you can try. For fungus gnats water infected plants with 1 once of 35% Hydrogen Peroxide to 5 gallons of water. The extra oxygen drowns the maggots of the gnats. For spider mites mix, Isopropanol alcohol 1 once to 1 quart of water, and a few drops of dish soap in a spray bottle. Tilt the plant please. The plant can get drunk, and look all wilty for a day or so if you get too much alcohol on their roots. The alcohol dries them out, and the soap gets in their lungs and drowns them. Good Luck. Chuck.

Which pests do this?Exactly what pest does this kinda damage? I have my guess, but wanna get other growers' opinion on this type of yellowing of leaves and brown spots. 6 weeks into veg. It started very early on at bottom leaves, once I trimmed them this brown spots appeared on top growth.

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?

Root Knot Nematode? Larvae? I think it killed this seedling.I found some type of critter crawling around what was left of the root of a dead seedling. I'd love to know what it is, and what to do with the other 2 plants in the tent. I pulled this one and removed the bucket from the tent. Video in diary.

What are these tiny things on the stems? Looks like some sort of pest.I can't match them with any of the common pests for Cannabis plants. I thought maybe juvenile Aphids or mealybugs at first, but I'm just a noob. I've only found 3 of these near the uppermost growth, attached to the base of fan leaf/stem. Plucked them with tweezers and they crunch
