Springtails. Not necessarily bad as long as you have a balanced soil ecosystem. They eat mulch, decaying matter and whatnot, however when they run out of food they will eat living roots. Predator mites will annihilate them.

After a bit of looking, I am thinking spring tails as well. I don't have a microscope, but I'm sure under deeper inspection they would be a match. Thanks for the help!

The BD stayed short and I also think it produces the buds slowly. The big plant is still on veg but if not an auto like the other ones then it surely is female. How much should I water them and should I use the nutrients again? Also what lamp height(125W CLF)? Am I close to flush

Spider mites So it turns out the Thrips were not Thrips at all they are bloody spider mites. Noticed them feeding on nematodes after spraying. Predator mites on there way and sprayed with an 1-8 iso mix. Now should i rinse the plant with just water before adding the predators?

Thrips infestation and chemical pesticide, help!I've bugs, probably thrips. I'll not be able to obtain organic pesticide (neem oil based) before one week! Is the 7th day from germination, the white bastards are developing and spreading ultrafast. Would be safe to use a chemical pesticide made for roses at this stage?

Soil bugs The bugs are only in the soil, not on the leaves, so how can I fight them? They are very small, grey and jump.

Black flies dark-winged fungus gnats detected. I immediately treated her with cinnamon water and covered the earth with sand so that they no longer nest. Is this enough to kill them or does she need more treatment?

Fungus gnats ruined my last grow and I just found one in my tent. I mixed food grade diatomaceous Earth in my soil just in case, but it looks like it didn’t work. I topped the soil with more and have a moving fan. Is there anything else I can do? I’m scared of another infestation

I have looked on internet and I think that its fungus gnats. In my case I must spray pots with neem oil, soap and water mix? And I must spray all pots even in holes if understand right.

White bugs I have started finding these little white bugs under the leaves. More lower to the ground.Not sure what they are. I have been spraying with neem oil but it seems like they just hide until it dries up and then come back. Are these harmful to my plant? Can I get rid of them?
