    What are these little F##kers?!!!!

    lww, you got it. I would personally choose to sequester that plant entirely as you are correct, they will travel & any pot/medium is choice for them. There are apparently people who keep super moist bathrooms, wet basements, or the like, & have springtails take hold & grow into massive...

    temperature problems

    How cold? What is the temp? I know of the problems associated with elevated rez temps, but unless you are dropping below 60F, I doubt there will be a "problem". In theory, higher solution temps (within reason... high 60's to low 70's) will accelerate growth, but only with proper levels of...

    When LEO' Come In, How Exactly

    They only knock to let me know when I've left the neon "GROW SHOW" light on at night... it flashes & disturbs the elderly neighbors to my right...?

    My Light set up will it worke?

    From my experience, wrong choice in lights. The t8's are not very efficient, go with t5's as much, much better lumen output. Regardless of which type, flouro's in a closet produce heat, and none of them are truly appropriate for flowering... just not enough total lumen output. They might...

    Please help diagnose this issue

    There are nute issues, but my guess is that it has to do with nute lockout vs a particular deficiency. I see Fe, several micros, along with the macros. Number one reason for this is predominately an improper soil pH & chemistry. The plants don't look burnt/over nuted. They are deficient...

    What are these little F##kers?!!!!

    This is the tough part... they don't need light of any sort, & even seem to dislike it, though hate the water/solution more. So, they go deep. Usually, once the populations get large enough, they will wash out the bottom of your pots with the run-off. You can spray these with pyrethrin as...

    Wilting after Nute Burn

    Sorry to jump. Cool that you pH test- this is really one of the biggest reasons nute problems come about. One of my pet peaves. Sorry brother, hope you can understand was coming from a good place. Don't cut the leaves, none of them if at all possible. They likely won't get infected if you...

    4 weeks not much yeild

    BTW @ wk 4 I too would use a light bloom booster, but a very, very small amount with this strain. Also, one reason it looks so sparse is because it is a sativa. You are likely looking at 10-12+ weeks til mature & it will be a month before they start to fill out. They will never be thick &...

    4 weeks not much yeild

    CAUTION!!! You have a predominately (if not entirely) sativa strain. These are super, super sensitive to overfertilization- require a very narrow band to grow in healthily (referring to tds/ec here). If at 1/2 tsp now, they look good. I would wager good money that if you double the dose they...

    What are these little F##kers?!!!!

    Thanks DD. Anything I know is from personal failure & mistakes. Best.

    What are these little F##kers?!!!!

    They are likely collembola, or commonly as springtails. These tend to be white, elongated/slender & less than 1-1.5mm in length. They also have a very small "arm" on their belly which they actually use a means to hop & travel. They will tend to stay near/in the soil unless watered, when they...

    Wilting after Nute Burn

    Trust me, i'm not being combative here. In earnest, I am trying to help. Unless you check your pH, how can you know that your water is pH'd? The brita filter removes solids/salts/etc, but it does nothing to buffer pH, in fact, removing salts from water decreases it's pH stability. Unless you...

    Nitrogen nutrients or heat stress problem?

    BTW, the first & last pics look the worst- draw the most concern for me. You have several brand new growing tips that are dieing. The middle two don't look as bad, though not great. So, didn't mean to be too melodramatic, which it seems upon reread. Best.

    Nitrogen nutrients or heat stress problem?

    I see a lot of things going on. First & foremost, the severe burning of your leaves at the edges (to the point of drying to a light brown & turning crisp) is a major sign that the plants cannot transpire enough water. Think heat exhaustion for us in the middle of the desert, but that we don't...

    BUGS!!! Green Caterpillars. HELP!!!

    Almost any pesticide designated for vegetables/fruits is fine. You could just pick all them off, no? Maybe spray to kill the eggs, if there are any, but would wait on that til the ctg's get bigger/healthier. Just pick em 4 now. Best.

    Growing Question: Plant under stress?

    Again, not a soil grower. A lot like Fox Farm, so you could do much worse. Some claim issues with them as not top-o-line, e.g., pH consistency, full availability, etc. Everyone has an a-hole though, right, including me... Pure-blend-pro is a very solid organic fert program you can use...

    Wilting after Nute Burn

    Agree with above, but would recommend feeding them a super-light solution of appx 250ppm. Use your RO, base nutes & 1ml/gal of LKarma, pH adjust. Don't go higher than the 250. This all depends, however... What did you flush with/how much vs volume of pots/how long ago/what is the medium...

    Growing Question: Plant under stress?

    Doesn't look bad. Yes, they grow real slow at first, though your's r ready to take off. There are a few nute deficiency issues going on that I can see... the lower leaves browning & yellowing- likely your macros beginning to show. Also, some minor leaf twisting which is likely a Ca issue-...

    Solve the Mystery.. I'm stumped

    Without pics, real tough to say. However, with the proximity of your treating the plants with a miticide a big reg flag is a wavin. Almost any foliar product, e.g., a fungicide, miticide, virucide, nutrient spray, will burn plant tissue if the conditions are correct. The primary reason is...
