Don't start your seedlings in a "hot" mix, just normal soil. When staging your final pot, use your hot mix in the bottom third of your pot with a lighter blend up top. The plant's taproot will go digging when she gets hungry.

Soil Amount Heavily DecreasedHello everyone, I'm almost at the end of my first grow and I've noticed that the amount of soil in my pots compacted pretty heavily. How do I avoid this problem in my next grow? (Pictures show the beginning and the current state of the soil; ~ -7cm soil height)

PH-Problems in SoilBefore repotting, the pH value in the soil has always fallen to below 5.5. The plants always have an iron deficiency. I then repotted the plants and that worked well for 14 days. Now they are showing PH deficits again. The soil has PH 5,4 -4,8. What could be the reason?

Mold on soilI used BioBizz LightMix with Monsterbud Mix from Amnesia and some mycorrhiza in the hole of the seed. 3 seeds after 3 days still not germinated in soil. Had foil on top of the pots for humidity. Probably watered a bit too much. What should I do and will my seeds still germinate?

What and why?What are these and do I need to address it?
I'm a couple of weeks in to my grow and just spotted these little critters when I was cleaning my run off saucers. I'm guessing there's more inside the soil are they harmful to my plants?
