Alright I am not sure what to do. The breeder suggests 60 days in flower and she is ready for harvest. But because of the thrips infestation I had, 1 girl seems to be stunted. Should I just wait longer than 60 days and hopefully they recover and fully mature?

Why is my plant growing upward so slowly? Temp, light & water are fine. My last auto in a Solo cup was 3x this size by Week 3. I'm not transplanting & will be growing in this container (18 oz) the whole time. No nutes yet--only doing natural (urine fert later this week).

Hi guys. Today i found a problem in my room, i found this insects on the photos. I dont know which insects are they. I already killed like 5 of them, and i cant figure out from where they come, probably from outside, because i have a window opened in V, but the tent is isolated

You think topping my plants to early stunted the growth of my plants. I gave my dad(lol he has 40 years of grower cannabis experience) the same seeds mine nearly grew to 3 feet while hes is growing over 8 feet tall.

Weird eggs
Hi! I found these weird but kinda beautiful eggs on my baby. No infestation or anything, just this one leaf that I threw out, but it got me curious, does anyone know what kind of bug lays eggs like that? Maybe a stink bug? Thanks!

Does anyone know what this is?
Does anyone know what this is? Noticed first as little white dots on 1 leaf, about a week ago then these little patches on about 3 leaves now. First outdoor grow so not really used to pests.

Tiny bug on plant, anyone know?
Hey all you wonderful people. Just curious as to what type of bug this is. Very tiny. Have seen even smaller bright orange larvae on a few leaves but only one larvae per leaf when found.. North America.

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.

Partial Harvesting and flushing the medium.
Can I do partial harvesting of the flowers that are ready and leave the other to ripe on the plants for longer? If yes, how should I proceed with flushing the substrate with plain water? I need to get rid of the salts before harvesting, even if harvesting partially. Please help.

Aphids I think?!
Being hit with a lot of learning curves this week! Just discovered a small Aphid I think. Green/clear very small with no wings. Ive been using biobizz leaf coat twice in the last week to try help them outdoors. Had caterpillars and today aphids. Get spray or predators?

Just being cautious. I had a friend visit today. Long story short, before visiting me she went to a nursery notorious for spider mites. I did not know this
How much should I be worried? She did not touch any plants directly. I cannot be certain that she had any mites on her. I am just being cautious. What is the best course of action? If my current flowering plants get mites, can I wash the mites off and still use the flowers

creepy crawlies
I got creepy crawlies. Clipped the entire leaf, mixed abt 3 drops of neem oil in 100-150ml tap water and sprayed the f*ck out of it. Then I checked the rest of my plants, found nothing but decided to spray them anyway. When should I re-apply? Any adverse effects of neem oil?

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?
