Can you safely add neem oil to water/nutrient reservoir in addition to using as a foliar spray? (Growing in Coco Coir using Mills Nutrients)

No... neem oil is an organic foliar spray used for pest control. I wouldn’t use it at all unless you’re having some pest issue.

Unless you are having pest issues you don’t need it. If you are then follow the directions closely on how much to add to your water.

Huge Slug Problem
Having a huge slug problem at the moment. I looked up the species on the internet and they are known as the Hutt. I have tried using the Force but it won’t work on him. Does anyone have some (creative) ideas on how to get rid of a giant slug. (Just a bit of fun)

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?

First grow mid-flower pest?
Help! Is this pest damage and what kind? I have about 100-200 ladybugs in the grow tent, and have for about a month now so I would be surprised if it were aphids. The damage is not extensive but there is a little here and there. Cant find anything under leaves.

Does this look good to you? Any help is appreciated because it is my first grow. I also think that this is growing pretty slow. If you look at the picture is my plant small or not? I planted the seed 14 days ago

What are these bugs and what to do about them?
Hi, I spotted these on one of my balcony plants today. Somekind of mites? They were around the sugar to middle sized leaves on new growth. It's around early to mid flower. I removed the leaves that had the most on them and tried to get rid of those who were left. What else to do?

Some leaves are showing small burnt spots and slight curling. what could be? I'm currently dealing with Fungus Gnats in the grow. I applied Beauveria and covered the soil with burnt rice husk. I’ll wait for the soil to dry and then use hydrogen peroxide to try eliminate the eggs.

Bug problem aftermath
So I got rid of my whitefly problem with the amazing dr zymes eliminator. Now I am wondering if I should spray the plants with water to try to get rid of residue perhaps Now rather than doing a wash after harvest ? BTW they should be done within 2 weeks.

This morning I found a huge slug resting on one of my buds😠. I also see a trial where he was on some other sites near by. Surprisingly, I can't find any noticeable damage other than the buds he was on are full of slime. Will this harm the development of my buds in the future?

Leaf miners
I spotted leaf miners' damage on a couple of leaves and an adult fly. What can I do to prevent them to spread and get rid of them at this stage of flowering? For now I'm trying to low the humidity a bit more to make the environment less ideal for them.
