translucent pest in soil
AlpAge_Cino
started grow question 3y 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.

Rats on the farm
I live on a farm and there are rats that run around in the night. Atm I'm moving my girl outside in the day 6am - 5pm, then inside for 4hrs of darkness, then under lights from 9pm - 6am. Repeat. The plan is to leave her outside 24hrs when flowering. Will the rats get her?

IPM Advice for outdoor
I'm looking for advice on IPM for my outdoor plants. They've not kicked into flower yet, and I want to be well-prepped beforehand to deal with any bugs that may attack my girls. Here we have thrips, spider mites, aphids and caterpillars mainly. Any input is helpful, thanks! :)

What are these tiny things on the stems? Looks like some sort of pest.
I can't match them with any of the common pests for Cannabis plants. I thought maybe juvenile Aphids or mealybugs at first, but I'm just a noob. I've only found 3 of these near the uppermost growth, attached to the base of fan leaf/stem. Plucked them with tweezers and they crunch

Bug control info needed for outdoors
Could you please suggest some safe bug killer powders or solutions for Cannabis plants growing outdoors. I have not found the bugs that are making little round holes in the leaves. No aphids or spider mites visible. I live on east coast of Canada, if that information is helpful.

Hello_Jeff
Mites appeared... 2 weeks left
I started noticing a few mites , which I mistook for orange fruit flies or something. Also there were 3-4 green ones but I could not find any kind of colony and thoroughly blew air through all the leaves. Should I take any more measures at this point of flower?
