That's most likely a thrip.... depending on how close you are to harvest, grab yourself some Spinosad or Dr. Zymes Eliminator - both are organic, both can be applied right up to harvest whereas neem oil cannot... Good luck!

Should I switch to larger pots for flower?
Should I switch these girls to bigger pots for flower? They are in 5 gallons. I have 30’s I could put them in or will it be a waste because they aren’t so big yet? I’m assuming we start flower in about 10 days (not scientific lol just best guess)😎

Move to exterior
Im planning on giving 2 plants to a friend (exterior) and keeping 2. Currently they are on 18/6. I’ve read June is the best time to take them out. And that I should “sync” my lights with the exterior sunlight. Can I reduce to 16/8 and not have my plants start flowering?

Planting directly into soil with full of other roots? (Outdoor Guerilla Autoflower)
The site is full of brambles with dense rootzones. I have dug a hole but its full of roots. Is it OK if I cut down every single root from my hole? Could my plant catch bacteria and etc from the brambles roots? Won't the brambles roots suck away all my nutrient from my plant?

Outdoor UK cold frame
Just wondering if anyone has any experience growing in a cold frame in the UK? I'm wanting to try some autos in the garden using a cold frame similar to the one shown, maybe a bit taller. Obviously I will be doing a lot of training to keep them low.

Crecimiento lento
After experiencing a stem break from the storm, treating it like a cutting for 5 days, the plant is growing at a very slow pace. What do you recommend, using outdoor light or putting it in the indoor tent? Out here we have about 16 hours of light.

Just wondering if adding sunlight could improve it or makes no difference?
Do you still need to give plants sunlight if they have a tent fan and ac plus led grow lights? I really need to know if after 53 days of 6hours of sunlight daily the plant might be used to the sunlight , although I know led grow lights are like a mini sun inside tent but still?

Growing outside?
I’m New to growing. I am on my second indoor grow. I am looking forward to growing some outside this summer. Being in Alberta, summer isn’t all that long. Should I go with a quick auto or start them inside then put out after last frost?

Lamp to Plant distance - Outdoor.
If growing outside, what is the best way to calculate lamp (star) to plant distance for the journal each week based on time of year and rotation of our lovely planet? I am being facetious, of course! It's just a fun question for you all. Hope everyone out there good!
