A little dawn soap in water, kills all bugs, smothers them. But I see plants that are overwatered. Let them dry an inch or 2 down between waterings. That's why there wilting your smothering your roots. Cheers

White specs but not Thrips?
Seeing white specs on the leaves, but no signs of bugs at all. Really looks like thrips but have looked at both plants top to down on 10x and couldnt find any. Could this be something besides bugs??

Infected Leaves. To remove part of the leaf or whole leaf?
I had had pests and disease issues my second grow of Autoflowers. I believe it was hemp russet mites which spread disease on parts of many of my leaves. Would it be alright to remove only the part of the leaf that was infected or to remove the entire leaf?

4/5 of my plants have been flowering for 2 weeks on a 20/4 cycle, while 1 remains in the vegetative state. Should I try and induce flowering by switching to a 12/12 cycle? If so will it effect my other plants?

Hello. This is my first grow. This is day 35 from clone transplant. I have a scrog built at 15" from the soil level. Do I need to reduce this for my current plant height as shown in the pictures? I don't fully understand the stretching I will get with Sativa-dominant?

Is my weed rotting? Please help and thank you in advance, I am starting to become a little paranoic
I am curing my weed and I found some small bugs on the buds (mostly flies), there were not a lot but I am a bit worried since also the color is starting to look a bit strange, or are maybe only the amberish trichomes? Also could bug go inside pistils? I found this strange thing

Centipedes? Good or bad? I’ve just spotted and lost one roaming the tent, I’ve heard they can be good as they don’t feed off the plant and can help with gnats thrips etc. What do you guys think? Anyone have any experience with this? Many thanks!
