So I am pretty sure I have Aphids. Has anyone else ever dealt with them? If so, what is the best way to get rid of them. I am 53 days into flowering. I was reading in the FAQ that I using detergent or soap to rid bugs is not good during flowering. What are some other methods..PLEASE HELP

Hey, I just switched my setup from CFL's to a 400watt hps. Depending on the size of the plant they are between 12-18" away from the light. I just noticed yesterday that the very end of the leaves are changing color and curling downward (very tiny part fo the end of leaf). Could this be heat...
