not 100% sure, they kind of look like root aphids? https://www.maximumyield.com/roothless/2/1019 Could try some BT to kill em - will want a positive ID though. Bacillus Thuringiensis(Bt) Biopesticide Best Of Luck!

Root loss shock?
Can I do anything?! I had her in with another seedling for the 1st 14 days and when I went to transplant them into their own pots their roots were completely entwined around each other. I tried to separate them but a good chunk of roots came away. They have both wilted badly!

Indoor companions in the same container? I already use the CO2 mushroom bags. But what about in with the plants container an in an indoor grow?
I am using coco coir and perlite as the medium. I would assume it would only make a difference if it was in the same container as the plants to interact. Or be a fungus, I think most produce at least some amount of CO2. Can I use companion fungus/plants in the same pot?

White mold?
My smart pot is turning white at the bottom. There also appears to be roots trying to pop through. I put rocks between the pot and plate for air. I have one blade of grass and a tiny weed popping up, so conditions at the top of the pot are okay. Should be worried?

Wood chips or spent mushroom straw?
So, woodchips, I know starve the soil of nitrogen, at first. From my understanding in the long run it would be more beneficial? I'm moving to full organic in the next run and from there on so any references would be very helpful!

Mykos - blackleg?
Can Mykos cause blackleg on my stalk? I have a bunch of seedlings, and I have some Mykos applied to the roots, and added some during a watering. I see a bunch of the fungus growing right where the soil meets the stalk... and its getting bigger. Today I noticed the area is black?
