If you pass your finger along the soil, do they jump all over? If they do they are springtails, quite harmless, but a symptom of soggy soil. Less water is what you need.

When to water outsideIn an outside grow once she has Germinated ill be removing the propagator to allow sufficient air and growth. Although its summer we do still experience the odd patch of rain so don't want to set a watering schedule rather figure out methods of how to know when to water, cheersWeek 1

Shes bushy and harder to LST for air flow/light to the lower sites. The larger leaves are laying on the top of the bucket, and there's moisture when lifted. I'm using a larger fan to keep air moving. Do you recommend trimming some leaves during veg? Also which leaves would I cut?Week 4

Help identify pestsNeed help identifying these bugs. I found them under rockwool cubes in the cloner
They seem to like the moisture and were not bothering the vegetation at all. I even found them under a few cubes with no cuts in them. Is it possible that they are fungus nat larvae?Other. Bugs
