White vinegar on plants
Ladysgrow2started grow question 3 years ago
I used 1/3 of a spray bottle of white vinegar and water to kill what I assume is an aphid infestation in my soil ( neem wasn’t working) extremely tiny white bugs. I poured it around the roots. Did I just kill my plants?

As The8th said - I'd go for nematodes straiight away, theyd be with you before the weekend but do take a few days to kick into action, should be cleared up by next weekend, make sure you buy the right species, I had fungus gnats that nematodes got rid of in a few days.
You could try hydrogen peroxide root drench (opinions vary regarding % solution) but vinegar is very acidic so best to check your soil pH quick to make sure you havent just gone scorched earth on your plants and if its way too low get it flushed.

Vinegar is pretty acidic. I would water with 7.0 water a couple times to rinse it out. Find out exactly what's in your soil. Somethings aren't damaging and can be killed just by underwatering for a few days. That's normally in coco.
For root aphids you'll need to bomb the soil with an insecticide. I've heard of people trying nematodes also. You can probably buy em online.

My Girl's Gone Rogue with 10cm of Frosty Goodness!My lady decided to shatter the whole "week 10 harvest" and instead shoot 10cm, packing new flowers whiter than a yeti's behind in a blizzard!
This genetic curveball beats me.
Do I let her keep this frosty stretch, or do I harvest and let this mutant masterpiece become a solo act

Day 49 autoflower huge and not yet flowering. Help!Day 49 autoflower not flowering? She's huge and I'm running out of room in the tent (58" and my tent is only 6 ft). Should I flip the tent to 12/12? Do I then keep it 12/12 the rest of the grow? How will that affect the Day 30 plant? Should I add 2nd light for smaller plant?
