Yeah growmie those are springtail harmless lil cleanup crew.
Means your soil is alive and doing fine. No need to panic or spray stuff.
I leave them be every time, they never touch the plant.
Question though, I don't see any soil, where did you take that photo?

There is a couple apps that can identify insects if you need to make sure, generally very accurate. Should find them easily on app store.

Hey there i like to side with cation.
I’m not a pro bug person so if I see any bugs in my grow indoors good or bad buds I immediately try and find where the buds are coming and how to get rid of them
If I’m growing outdoors and I see buds I know it’s time for me to increase PM

translucent pest in soilHi, 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 ? TIAWeek 7

F44: dozens of gnats stucked on buds & sugar leavesHey,
I noticed dozens of gnats stucked on sugar leaves and buds trichomes/resin... I tried to pick them by hand but there are too many.
I saw articles about bud washing which seems to be a good thing except for higher mold risk.
Would it be the only way to smoke bug free weed?Other. Bugs
