GreenCasperstarted grow question 5y ago
Do new cannabis leaves sometimes have defects or missing pieces? Mine seem to have a few missing spots and I’m wondering if it’s bugs or something to keep an eye on?

This looks like wear & tear, not bugs. It can happen when they are small and you're handling them.

Spider mitesSo it turns out the Thrips were not Thrips at all they are bloody spider mites. Noticed them feeding on nematodes after spraying. Predator mites on there way and sprayed with an 1-8 iso mix. Now should i rinse the plant with just water before adding the predators?Week 9

Hole in stemI found a hole in the stem. I’m not sure if it was a burrow worm or from a tie down I had there. I injected it with a liquid that kills them. (Rosemary extract because everywhere is out of BT local to me). I also sprayed it on the leaves and in the soil. Looks better now?Other. Bugs

Root aphids in flowering?What I initially thought was a nutrient issue I am now convinced is a root aphid issue. Noticed a few small white bugs crawling on top of the soil and I don’t know how to get rid of them without harming my plant. She’s in 5th week of flowering so I don’t think neem is ideal.Other. Bugs

Other than being autoflower & transplanting couple times, which I won't do next time, are there any other reasons for stunted growth during veg phase? Or are my logs normal & I'm just impatient? I've put every detail I can think of in my diary.Week 3

started off in a 1ltr pot, I want to transplant into a bigger container but the only ones I have are 5gallon/19liter smart pots. I'm only growing this auto flower for medical use and I'm happy to use the 5gallon pot. Anyone think this is a bad idea? Is it too big? Thanks!Week 1
