    Wtf are these bugs

    You're going to catch all sorts of bugs with one of those. Accept bugs are a part of life outside. Sticky traps won't be of much use. Since they're young and in veg, If you really are concerned, I'd opt for neem oil spray. Spray late afternoon when the sun's going down. Neem works as an...

    Lower leaves got worse overnight starting to spread

    I would have removed them myself before spraying. Just how I roll. Physical removal is a good first step and effective prevention tool. Good IPM practice. Really doesn't matter at this point, it's up to you.

    Lower leaves got worse overnight starting to spread

    Generally, physical removal is good IPM practice and a best first step. I would remove them. Then spray.

    Well, that’s embarrassing!

    Dunno. Takes a while to reveg a plant though. Have a feeling you'll be OK. Little bump in the road maybe. Only time will tell. More concerning is the overfert. Plain water with good run off, if you haven't already. Or res change if water culture. Then carry on with the same you were feeding them...

    Looks like mg or potas deficiency but hitting top growth first?

    You'd be seeing symptoms on older growth, not new growth, were it Potassium or Magnesium deficiency. Personally I don't see anything to worry about. Looks fine. If it got worse, I'd suspect overwatering. If you're watering often. Or lockout, if you haven't been watering until some runoff. At...

    Yellowing leaves

    I think so. They should snap out of it. Recommend getting one. Handy to have.

    Yellowing leaves

    Yes. I'd be raising my input EC with good runoff. I think they're just hungry. You've been feeding on the lighter side, with two waters between. Should be pretty safe to do so in my opinion.

    Yellowing leaves

    Roughly...thereabouts. (10% of 5gallons)

    Yellowing leaves

    That maybe true. But you're not seeing half a gallon runoff from a 5 gallon pot, when they're getting 2 litres each per watering. Should be seeing about 2 litres in runoff per 5 gallon pot.

    Yellowing leaves

    You're not watering nearly enough when you do. I bet that's what's causing any yellowing, if you're following the feed chart correctly. Should be aiming to see 10% runoff or waste in pot volume, per watering. Don't stray from the chart. Adding more nitrogen shouldn't be necessary. Mucking...

    Possible lockout in soil? Need advice

    Every third may still be a little often. But in all you'll be the best to judge or tell.

    Possible lockout in soil? Need advice

    Not much you can really do. More so for next-time. I'd personally just keep watering until runoff and get a good all-rounder for npk. Organic or otherwise. GL.

    Possible lockout in soil? Need advice

    Great! That's the right watering habit to practice and form. Careful you don't overwater. 2 days isn't much of a stretch. Not for a 5 gallon pot and plants that size. Another day or two wouldn't hurt, until they get a bit larger. Regardless of when you flip or how you water, you will need to...

    Overfeeding or underfeeding or lockout?

    Plant deficiencies and lockouts look the same. If not identical. I would suggest if you're using a reputable nutrient and correctly following the feed chart, it's unlikely you'll ever experience "deficiency". There should be everything the plant needs already in sufficient amounts. Which does...

    Yellowing of my leaf tips

    Agree with above, it's likely hot soil. I'm going to suggest always adding extra aeration to your potting mix or soil before potting, regardless of brand or type. Helps the roots breathe / aids in drainage. Add aeration always. Careful you're not overwatering. Will make a hot soil worse. And...

    How accurate is checking run off EC?

    @dejay123 Situational / depends. Someone might find it useful to check whilst growing in inert media. It'll be closest to true. Someone probably won't find it useful in media like soil. Because of soils own inherent nutrient properties and generally high water holding capacity. Stab in the...

    Help diagnosing deficiency

    That's a fair bit you've added already to try and rectify. And you've been regularly supplementing 4-4-4. I doubt it's a deficiency if you haven't seen any improvement, and you've been adding more. Sometimes less is more. I'd be using caution at this point. Could get a lot worse if it isn't a...

    Mycorrhiza Fungi...why you should get to know them...

    Fascinating video I just watched the other day, to anyone who maybe interested. It's worth a watch.

    Concerning - potassium deficiency?

    Concerning - potassium deficiency?

    I mean no offence or claim to know it all, when I say you can get it from any general gardening information. Any information on basic gardening fundamentals. And any information on soil will be helpful. Steer away from cannabis specific stuff. Or plant specific stuff. Look more for information...
