Bug problems
crimsonechoanswered grow question 2 years ago
i saw this video while i was replying to your other question and gotta say you need a macro lens to take photos of the critters you see there. its impossible to identify by this video.
however i dont see thrips damage on your plants, do you?
do they jump up and down when you disturb them?
do they have antenna like bunny ears?
since you cant take a close up photo of the creatures youre seeing i suggest you google springtails and try to identify yourself using your sight. theyre 99.9% springtails imo.

Springtails can come with some soils but usually come with compost, worms or sometimes worm castings depending on the source. They're fine as long as they have compost/mulch to eat, and help decompose organic materials. Keep your soil nutrient rich with organic matter and you'll be fine, but if you starve them, they have been known to eat living plant roots. My living soil is full of soil mites, worms and springtails=)

Looks like springtails to me which means you have some good soil there. They don't harm the plant.

you have to really focus to see the antenna theyre tiny but visible if you keep watching them.
you know what get a spoonful of your soil and drop it in a bowl filled with some water, that way you can see the ripples they make when they jump. their jumps are hard to see since they are very small but theyll cause ripples on standing water when they do.

I can’t seem to get a clear shot
They don’t seem to have any antenna but they do seem to slightly jump when disturbed.
I don’t see any damage to the plant also. Seem to be like a white pill shaped bug which I know doesn’t help too much.

Mites?Hi. What are these? Slow crawling, not fast or jumpy, about the size of this period . They swarm by the thousands after I water. Plants are doing great. I hit them with CannControl and Lost Coast, population has reduced a bit. I’m leaning towards soil mites. What do y’all think?

First grow mid-flower pest?Help! Is this pest damage and what kind? I have about 100-200 ladybugs in the grow tent, and have for about a month now so I would be surprised if it were aphids. The damage is not extensive but there is a little here and there. Cant find anything under leaves.

I was going to dunk my plants into a soap and water mix and then rinse them off, is that a bad idea 5 weeks into flower?I saw some aphids here and there the other day, so I was thinking I was going to rinse my plants again today, but I sprayed some neem oil around the pots yesterday and today I can’t find any... Is it okay to rinse my plants 5 weeks into flower, will it mess up the trichomes?Other. Bugs

Spider Mite ProblemSpider Mite Problem at week 8.
I just realized this problem, a severe spider mite infestation on one plant. I defoliated the plant to get rid of most of them as I thought I can get away with this until the end of the flowering. Any other suggestions are more than welcome!Other. Bugs
