Pmals suggestion there, should work. But you still gotta remove the ones already on your plant yourself.

Are these springtails "infecting" my DWC bucket? There's no smell and the plant is doing greatI might have a springtail "infection". Can I get some additional eyes on these? Sorry, I don't have a microscope. Tiny, white jumping specks. My googling tells me that they are "springtails" and supposedly harmless or even beneficial. Thoughts?Week 9

Hi, this is my first grow and I am trying to make it successfull. Unfortunately my plants are growing very slowly because I made a few mistakes in the first 3 and a half weeks. I think the crucial one was using CFL 250W Bloom light. Do you guys think I can save this grow?Week 4

Insects !?!? Help please first guerilla growI've noticed some burn-like spots on my baby. It starts from the top leaves. I had some issues with insects already so the plants didn't have the easiest life so far. Is it the nutrients or I've got some uninvited guests ? Many thanks ladies and gents !Other. Bugs

Spiders in the outdoor garden, good or bad?I was out in the garden tending to my ladies and came across a couple of spiders. I know spiders are supposed to eat other bugs, but that also involves a spider web. So, my question is should I leave the spiders alone? Or should I kill them as I find them, like other bugs?Week 7

What are these bugs?What are these bugs? I'm not sure if they're thrips or not. The plant is indoors in soil. They've just shown up in the last few days. They're not crawling all over the plants, mostly down at the soil level. I did see a couple on the stalk but they're not up in the leaves/buds.Other. Bugs

How to remove Mites before harvest, after final discharge, in some natural way so as not to harm the buds?I did a defoliation, but I saw that there are few mites still close to the buds. I'm going to harvest this week and I would like to know how to eliminate them so that I don't have problems drying them or smoking them in the end.Leaves. Too few
