translucent pest in soil
AlpAge_Cino
started grow question 2y ago
Hi, last watering I've seen tiny translucent insects (about 1 mm) emerging from the soil. They are fast and can jump like a flea. I assume they live in soil. What are these little monsters, should I worry about them and what should I do ? TIA

Either Springtails or White mites imho, kinda need a better pic but from the color that seems most likely.

Probably some type of soil mite, wouldn't worry about it.

How to remove Mites before harvest, after final discharge, in some natural way so as not to harm the buds?
I did a defoliation, but I saw that there are few mites still close to the buds. I'm going to harvest this week and I would like to know how to eliminate them so that I don't have problems drying them or smoking them in the end.

Root Knot Nematode? Larvae? I think it killed this seedling.
I found some type of critter crawling around what was left of the root of a dead seedling. I'd love to know what it is, and what to do with the other 2 plants in the tent. I pulled this one and removed the bucket from the tent. Video in diary. Extremely hard to see in still photo

Dodgy grub?
I think these guys are living in my soil. I'm assuming they eat vegetable matter. So are they bad? Is there a way to get rid of them or just start again with new soil?

What are these bugs and what to do about them?
Hi, I spotted these on one of my balcony plants today. Somekind of mites? They were around the sugar to middle sized leaves on new growth. It's around early to mid flower. I removed the leaves that had the most on them and tried to get rid of those who were left. What else to do?

Pruning to minimize aphids during flower, yes or no?
I think I have aphids on one of my plants, and lots of vegetative growth so I’m thinking of doing a little pruning.Is this a good idea during flower? Any tips on HOW I should prune? I was generally scared of pruning throughout the grow, I don’t know what to leave and what to clip

White bugs
I have started finding these little white bugs under the leaves. More lower to the ground.Not sure what they are. I have been spraying with neem oil but it seems like they just hide until it dries up and then come back. Are these harmful to my plant? Can I get rid of them?

Las hojas de mis plantas se han curvado hacia abajo luego de haberla regado hace 3 días
The soil is still quite moist, I've seen insects like thrips and fungus gnats, I've used potassium soap and neem oil. I've turned off the humidifier, leaving 47% humidity at 28°C. I've also raised the reflector to about 70cm above the plant. What else can I do??
