Help root aphids..
Phillipipstarted grow question 2 years ago
Help.!! I have just noticed tiny little bugs crawling in my soil when I watered, I'm guessing they are root aphids? About 1 or 2mm light in colour. Made my girl very yellow and she's only got 4 weeks left! Gutted... Any ideas for the fasted remedy??? Thanks peeps 😁

Well here are three sources backing up my claim, besides that I speak from experience:
- https://www.tipsbulletin.com/how-to-use-neem-oil-for-fungus-gnats/#does-neem-oil-kill-fungus-gnats
- https://plantcaretoday.com/neem-oil-fungus-gnats.html :
"Azadirachtin is a powerful systemic insecticide, killing grubs beneath the soil and being absorbed by the roots."
- growdiaries.com/journal/neem-oil-organic-pesticide-for-cannabis :
"The neem tree has its own defence mechanism which protects it from being attacked by insects. The sap produced by the tree contains azadirachtin, which acts a natural insecticide and has shown to repel hundreds of different types of pests."
Cheers, mate. All the best with your grow!

Get yourself some Mosquito Bits and use as directed... you just have to soak a certain amount of granules in a certain amount of water and then,, after straining out the granules, use the water for your plant... it will kill adult/eggs/larvae of the fungus gnats that are enjoying your too-wet soil....

Good luck...

Drench the soil with a 1:100 (max) solution of neem oil (with emulsifier included or add hand dish washing detergent). I prepare the soil in this fashion when I need to use the Home Depo soil; nothing has ever crawled out of it afterwards.
1:100 ratio: For 1 litre of solution, mix 10 ml of neem oil (with included emulsifier) with 990 ml of water.
1:200 ration: For 1 litre of solution, mix 5 ml of neem oil (with included emulsifier) with 995 ml of water.
Start a grow diary, mate - it's hard to help if you don't have any pictures of the plants. Join the community, if you wish! ✊
Cheers!

Minor damage to a few leaves found today - what is it?I am trying to determine the cause of damage to a few leaves that was observed this week. It may be two different problems. On a few leaves, I see brown spots which may have originally been white. On another 2 leaves, I see a burn hole through the leaves with brown edges.

Need input on the growth so far. My node/internode spacing is very tight which has resulted in short and bushy/dense plants. I understand there are several contributing factors to this but how does it impact yield? What to do if my spacing too tight? Should I even be concerned?Week 5
