Introduce lady bugs they are carnivores so they love any bug that loves your plants and they won't eat your plant

I personally would stay away from anything artificial to keep them away just to make sure none of it ends up in the bud. It's a bit annoying but I see it as a trade-off for growing outside. If you don't like them aesthetically I would recommend just snipping them away and let the plant focus it's growing on the proper leaves. If it starts happening on more than 2-3 more leaves I would look around your grow site for a possible source (an ant hill, etc.) and then dealing with it away from the plant! Hope this helps!

Companion planting works great! I grow basil near my plants and that seems to keep most flying insects away. There is other plants like mint, marigolds, lavender. There is more you can google.

Big difference in first true leaves' sizeBig difference in first true leaves' size
Its almost day 5 after emergence. Is this normal? Should I be concerned?
ALSO: It's still a seedling but, I maybe think the cup in which i'm growing it in is too small, or rather I put too little soil (9cm diameter , 4cm tall dirt).

3 days in, only cotydelons with no sign of the first true leaves. Have you seen this and has it recovered?This plant was stunted at the start after he couldn't get his hat off, but now looks pretty healthy however it's been 3 days of just cotydelons and absolutely no sign of the first true leaves. Have you had this before and did it recover to eventually grow true leaves?

First Grow 4 weeks into Veg - Let my humidity get too high for 1 night. Need help with mold/septoria/?Last 3 days I've pruned diseased leaves every morning, foliar sprayed peroxide leaves & topsoil, & added some to watering solution. Is only affecting one plant in tent. Humidity no longer issue (was waiting 4 inline fan). If I keep pulling off leaves it's going to die anyway.

Brown spots on bud site leaves?!halfway through flower and now in week 6 flower one of my plants is showing some large brown spots on only the upper leaves. I’m not sure if it’s a light or ph issue as the light is close. I stopped cal mag and some nitrogen this week but spots were showing up before.

Does yellow leaves with red tips mean my plants need more nutrients or less? Jacks 3 2 1 on AutoWeek 8 (flower) top leaf tips are reddish and the leaves are more yellow than green. Does this mean that my plants need more nutrition?
I am using Jacks 3 2 1 for two autos and using it at 65% strength (650PPM / 1.2EC). Should I goto 100% at 990PPM / 1.9EC or 50% to 550PPM/1EC
