Hey buddy For the roots , get some mykorrhiza. For the leaves get some cannacure and neemoil. Spray 1- 2 times a week with neemoil to prevent. Stop when the buds are visible. You should be good friend

Using Marigolds to deter bugs
Has anyone here used marigolds to deter bugs? I’ve germinated about 50 marigolds with my girls so they can all grow together(separate pots for the marigolds) are the marigolds worth the extra work?

Bugs or no?
Do new cannabis leaves sometimes have defects or missing pieces? Mine seem to have a few missing spots and I’m wondering if it’s bugs or something to keep an eye on?

What could be causing this? Should I be concerned?
Found a weird black little worm-like bug inside one of the baby leaves... Kind of looked like a silverfish. Only one... Started inspecting my other plants and they don't seem to have them. Any ideas to what it is?

My plants started flowering (they are autoflower). How long does flowering take? They seem too small? (16l pots) 80x80cm space - for size reference. As you see i did a lot of LST, so they created a lot of branches, do i have ti tie them down more, or should i leave them?

What are these bugs?
What are these bugs? I'm not sure if they're thrips or not. The plant is indoors in soil. They've just shown up in the last few days. They're not crawling all over the plants, mostly down at the soil level. I did see a couple on the stalk but they're not up in the leaves/buds.

Thrip in a bud?!
So, today arrived my microscope to check trichomes and as I was looking them suddenly appeared a thrip on the lens. I´ve been dealing with them in my grow for about 2 weeks now. It´s not that bad but a thrip in the bud is enough for me. What do you do to anihilate these things?

So I changed out my led lights to high bay full spectrum LEDs. I'm getting a lux of 12000 when lights are about 2 feet above canopy. Is that a good thing? These high bay lights are pretty much cob led...how do I convert lex to ppfd? And what is the best lux or ppfd for my plants?

Do you guys know any tricks to get my plant to grow taller? Goal is to increase space in between nodes. I've tried raising the LEDs to 30 inches for a few days. Also tried leaving it in complete darkness for 24 hours.

Do I just hose it off and proceed as normal? Or hose it off and give to my most leechy smoking friend?
Looks like mould, but I'm guessing spider mites. I tried the 3 days of dark, pulled it out of the cupboard and it had this big clump on it. There was the odd spider mite before the cupboard. Basically just wondering if I'll die sooner if I try and clean it up and smoke it???

Natural insect repellant
More of a comment then a question. I’ve had a lot a luck using cedar sawdust as mulch for plants. I grow a lot of veg and other Plants and it works really well to repel insects. All natural and smells great in the Garden.
