answered grow question 5y ago
Likely came out of your soil to begin with, just like the gnats. Yellow sticky strips are a must for indoor grows. Cheers

Help! Stem borer problem?
Help! I just found a couple holes in my banana blaze stems with some small egg-like stuff coming out of them , it looks like my first grow (outdoor) and I think it was some sort of stem borer/moth . Anybody has some advice how to get rid of them? Is it actually a stem borer?

Organic/Natural Bug Control Outdoors
Bugs have been nibbling on my outdoor ladies. I'm looking for tips/suggestions for controlling bugs organically/naturally. I am growing Basil, Chives, Oregano and Spearmint around the ladies in an effort to help deter bugs. But that's not working as well as I had hoped.

Silverfish
I found a silverfish (is this the correct name?) in the soil of a plant; obviously I immediately threw it out and checked if there were others by moving the ground a little, but how do I make sure I make them disappear? or do you know if they can be harmful to the plant? 😭

Mold or spiders?
Is this mold? Is the whole harvest ruined or just the buds that show mold? This is the main cola on an untrained plant.

Possible Pest Problem (All white worms.)
Hello everyone. I found two tiny worms in the runoff of one of my plants in coco coir. My first thought was gnats, but there’s no dark end. I also read it could be springtails. EC levels in runoff are a little high, but pH is good and the plants looks better than ever. Thanks!

Hundreds of tiny bugs on top layer of soil what are they?
Was just feeding them and noticed hundreds of tiny seed looking things float to the top of each plant, watched the soil for a while and they was moving 😪 They look like fungus knats maybe but I don't know for sure will upload a video I got of one. How do I get rid of them?

When an auto still hasn't shown pre-flowers at week 5 or 6, does that mean the entire growth cycle will be longer - or will it simply have that much less time for flowering once it starts doing that?
