Impale the body of the fallen on toothpicks to serve as a warning! (You're outdoors, there's really not much you can do that won't affect the plant as well. Infest it with good bugs like ladybugs, but that won't stop caterpillars).

not inexperienced but my first scrog and indr photo grow. Only problem is lower temps (nothing I can do to fix this) which may be slowing growth. Any thoughts on defo, training to advance to flower? Been a long veg. and wondering if I’m doing something wrong or just impatient?

The extremely strong sativa phenotype of this plant leads me to believe that flowering should take much more than 12 weeks. Also the environmental conditions didn't help at all. Nitrogen toxicity is another thought... What do you guys think?

Neem oil in coco 6-7 weeks into flower
Growmies!... Is Neem oil OK to use in coco when 6 - 7 weeks into flower? Pests are in the medium, not the foliage. I read that the plant can absorb some taste/smell from the Neem.. Anybody have any experience with drenching medium with Neem this far into flower? And results?...

Is this Fungus Gnat Larvae?
Found these little suckers in the DWC roots, sprayed some 1:4 peroxide/water solution all around, and tried to flush the roots too. Now I'm letting the roots soak in just water & hydro guard for now (ran out of peroxide). Thoughts

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.

This lady had a mag. deficiency I believe so I added the cal-mag back to her diet but I feel she is still growing slower than my AK-49 Auto , is this because she is recovering and will catch up or is it something else

Difficulty identifying leaf problem - maybe it's insects?
I'm having trouble figuring out what's going on with my plant. The cotyledons and lower fan leaves are getting irregular shiny patches varying in size underneath, with yellow spots directly above them on the top side. It's really hard to photograph the shiny patches. Thrips?

Pests
Spider mites? Aphids? What would be causing these bites? Is it too late to continue using neem oil since they’re already starting to flower? Should I use BT spray instead? Thanks.

As I said in the comments. Growth Seems pretty slow to me for day 23. Might just be me though. Any insight into this would be helpful and appreciated. 😊
