Root Knot Nematode? Larvae? I think it killed this seedling.
bSandersWitASteelChairstarted grow question 5y ago
I found some type of critter crawling around what was left of the root of a dead seedling. I'd love to know what it is, and what to do with the other 2 plants in the tent. I pulled this one and removed the bucket from the tent. Video in diary. Extremely hard to see in still photo

Can use a mixture of 1 to 1 of 3 percent hydrogen peroxide and water. Will kill anything like that in soil and also is good on root rot or overwatering. Do NOT get on leaves. Roots are ok. For critters on leaves the solution is much much more watered down. Good luck and happy growing

Looks like fungus knat larve would be my top guess :) Erm check all the soil for more and check all plants for little knats that would be my top guess :) they are attracted by high humidity or decompsoing vegatation if you have ph problems that can also attract them too. if you cant replace the soil then you need to wash it out as much as you can :) best of luck

Springtails in Waste water CoCoHi all, I have just watered my almost 3 week old plants, they are in coco, and I collect the waste water to measure my PH values. To my great surprise I saw something moving in my waste water (see photo).
I did some searching on the internet and found that they are springtails.

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
