Ya I think if they were spidermites then they would be on the plant. That would be cool if they are preditory mites. So should I let them be?

dude I think you are seeing or talking about the same thing as me. Mine are 3 weeks into veg. Check out the pics I just posted and let me know of they look the same. I don't think they are spidermites. My research so far has led me to believe they are either soil lice or springtails. my...

oh and they just crawled around really fast and more would start to come up when I turned the fan off. I never saw one jump or anything and I tried blowing on them and they would just stop for a sec and then keep crawling around. I can see quite a few running around the rims of the pots and in...

ok i was able to get a magnifying glass and take some pictures with a 12mb camera. they look white with round bodies and six legs with antenna. Here are some pics of them. Do you think they are soil lice or springtails or what? Should I do something about them or leave them alone? Thanks...

Well, after looking at them real good again I am starting to think they are not spidermites. I looked at all the leaves and there was nothing. Them I looked at the soil and saw them crawling around the edge of the soil and inside of the pot. They are tiny and white and look like they have antena...

how do I get a good pic though that up close? I have a sony 12mp digital camera with macro mode and 5x zoom but not sure if that would turn out or not... guess I could try with that.. until I have time to pick up some neem oil, could I use the baby oil instead like someone else mentioned in...

It's hard to see them for sure, i need to get a magnifying glass. They look all white but hard to tell. The two that I saw were so small that they looked even smaller than those things do in the pic. Could they be baby spidermites or possibly something else? I really hope they arent...

I have 10 plants in a 5'x5'x6' closet and I'm almost 3 weeks into veg since sprouted. My plants look very healthy and I've been trying to keep clean so far and haven't even thought to check for bugs yet. It is dry and hot though like 20 - 30% humidity and 78 - 83 degrees. Well, I topped some...

Do you mix the baby oil with water and then mist spray it on the plant or use 100% baby oil or what? Whats the ratios? Should I rinse the plant afterward with plain water? Thanks.

what about if the top 3 inches of soil is dry but everything below that is moist/wet still? Should I water anyways or wait for the bottom stuff to dry out too? That's what im concerned about.

subscribed... I have 4 Nirvana AK48 plants at about 17 days old and hoping for more females than males. I also have 6 other plants (3 different strains) and these AK48's are growing the fastest out of all of them. Please keep updating this with pics of progress. Thanks :D

i am also interested in info about topping this strain. I have 4 Nirvana AK48's that are 3 weeks old as well as 6 other plants of 3 different strains (2 of each.) Out of the 4 strains, the AK48's are growing the fastest and look the healthiest! I am about ready to top some though and...

so how do you tell if your plants are ready to drink? a good explanation would be appreciated.

I am on day 17 since my seeds sprouted and some of my plants have 3 - 4 nodes or sets of leaves and some have 4-5. They are in Foxfarm Ocean Forest soil and I just transplanted them to 3 gallon pots 5 days ago. Technically, when does the veg cycle start? Is it when the maximum number of leafs...

Thanks T.H. Cammo for the in depth explanation of that. I've been looking for something like that for a while. I just went to 3 gallon pots with my little plants and was having concerns with watering them. I never heard of the dish soap stuff until I read this thread. It's been 5 days since...

This is just my opinion so take it as you wish. If you aren't concerned about the elec bill and your ventilation is good with current temps not too high, then I would def turn on the HPS. The red spectrum of light will not overpower or overtake the blue or anything it will just add to it...

hey man this is my first grow too and I went with FFOF in 3 gallon pots with a 400watt mh/hps system. I'm on day 16 of veg since seeds sprouted and things are going great. I think you will be pleasantly surprised with FFOF. I haven't put a drop of fert in yet and my plants look really good so...

I agree with you on that the seeds from start are either male or female. What I don't understand is all this stuff I've been reading that says overstressing plants causes more males. Also that some females can become hermies, etc etc. It makes me think that just maybe during the seedling...

Like others have said, I would think that the HPS would do better than the 2 20w fluros but I would make sure that HPS has some blue light spectrum in it too. Find the HPS bulbs that state they have additional coverage in the blue spectrum compared to standard HPS. I've also read that without...

+rep, thanks. I will try moving them wide first and if they start stretching real bad ill put in the HPS. Thanks.
