Tiny white insects in my soil
ObserverInterest
started grow question 2y ago
When I take off a layer of soil there is a whole world of tiny white insects in my soil. What is this? Is this normal? Good? Bad? I’m using coco and perlite mix. They jump around very quickly when I expose them

Springtails and they are harmless. I had them underpot . If bothered treat them. I put some pesticide of some sort on them and they did jump then lol
