    Best COB (CXB3590) color temperature for flowering?

    Hi All, Curious to what color temperature COBs everyone is using for for flowering. I'm making a CXB3590 array and not sure which color to use. It seems like a good portion of people here use 3000k while others use 3500k (some even 4000k). Any suggestions for the optimal flowering color temp...

    Are these thrips? Silver looking spots on leaves. Will imidacloprid knock them out?

    Are these spots caused by thrips? Here's a few pictures of the afflicted leaves. If so, or if not, tips on combating whatever it is? Will imidacloprid work? I've heard spinosad works great but IMID is what I have on hand.

    Is this a spider or a spider mite?

    I saw this little bugger crawling on the top perlite layer of my new seedlings. Should I have concern that this is a spider mite or just a spider? On a side note: a few spiders always seemed to get into the cloning tray area and made a home out of the empty cells in there, this doesn't bother...

    Flying bugs from clones! Picture's!

    Bad new bears! I know I did a big no-no and got some clones from someone. Turns out the clones had bugs in them, flying bugs. Couldn't get too close of a look to identify, I think it may have been thrips. I got some sns 203 from the local hydro store and soaked the leaves/soil with them...
