BrokenCPUstarted grow question 3y ago

I found a Pholcus phalangioides spider or (daddy long leg) hanging under a 5 Gal plant pot. Not that I'm concerned I'm just curious what its eating. Every plant I have grown has ben from seed or a clone I have personally cut.

Hello. Spiders are helpers. Don't kill them. This species is known as harvesters. They eat what they come across. Like the old nomads they have to roam around till they find something good to eat and when it gone they have to roam around again. I would suggest leave it alone and you will probably find it dead in the corner in a week or so, or you could trap it and put it outside on the ground, they don't climb so well. Hope that helped. Chuck.

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

Is it normal for my seedling to be at only one inch height after 8 days? Technically it did take about 2 days to sprout after planting. So I suppose it's really only been 4 days since sprouting. Slight yellowing on the leaves as well. My last auto was a huge fail.

Any tips for watering during the seedling stage right after germination? I keep either overwatering or underwatering. I'm scared to start in a solo cup as I'm doing mainly Autos and they might stunt the growth when transplanting. Grateful for as many details as possible.
