I own a WildLife & Pest Control business, and you can't really tell by the markings, just like you can't differentiate between an Africanized "killer" bee from a regular European bee just by looking. The Asian Beetle and the North American LadyBug have produced hybrids over the past 30 yrs, so don't be surprised if you get bit by something that doesn't have the "M" marking that they are referring too. Both are beneficial and the bite is only mildly annoying....
Yeah, they really kept down the fruit flies.

Post your current soil mix, as well as a little info about your set up. Specifically your water source.

All I can say based off that is do not top dress any more high P inputs. You don't need much at all really for P.

What "water soluble fertilizers"? And in what amounts?
Can't offer much advice if we don't know what you're working with man

Ok I ask about your water because if your not getting all the chlorine out, or worse yet if you have chloramine in your water you could be killing your microbes that are supposed to be feeding your plant.
Clean water is key, I buy distilled for mine. It does add up but when I move I'm going to get an ro system

Can anyone help me find a ORMI Liquid fertilizer for veg and for bloom. I just found advanced nutrients Iguana juice. That seems legit, anyone use it ? I know all about making teas, but I just don’t have time with my work schedule to do all that right now . Wish I could but I can’t. I’ve read a lot of all the previous posts and I’m not seeing anyone discuss it. If there is anything I could buy that I could just mix up and feed the girls I’d love to hear some suggestions. I’m going to be growing in coco and I water/feed every single day as if it’s hydro, so whatever I use it must fit into that. I don’t want to get started on the debate about watering/feeding every day, just want to hear some advice on some ORMI listed liquid or powder food, that is easy to mix up or is already in liquid form and easy to mix with water. I thought about mixing all the stuff up I need in the coco before growing, but with my style of keeping the coco wet all the time I don’t think it would last long. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Happy growing everyone

If I wanted to benefit from stinging nettles..what's the best way of me doing it?

Shall I pick some, leave them to die and dump them onto the top of my soil?
If so, how do I ensure I don't introduce pests into my environment?

What about steeping them in water and applying it as a feed? Again..how would I ensure I eliminated all pests?

Thanks in advance.
