hey guys, just transplanted into the ground with 50/50 happy frog and ocean forest, and some lime. while pulling out one of the plants from its pot, ants throughout the entire rootball, carrying eggs and such... is this a bad thing?? like will the ants do any damage to the root system, and do you think they will go away since I transplanted them into the ground? any experience??

I always get ants in my pots.. I was just observing some yesterday. They dont do any real harm, especially because they arent interested in eating any parts of the plant. They are more of an aesthetic pest, I hate seeing all those little ants scurry about.

yea I was just hoping they weren't eating the roots, cuz it looked like they had a pretty big colony going on cuz I saw a lot of eggs and such

Nah they arent eating the roots.. just using em as highways to traverse their little city. If you flush your pots really good you will collapse their tunnels.

You may want to test the ph of your water source. Could be causing your problems. Also, 2x2' holes are fine in decent soil and you can always go bigger, but the more well amended potting soil you have the bigger your plants will be.

Good luck this season :weed:

sorry its just that everyone on this website refers to ph for every problem, and i recently stated my ph is stabilized and no i didn't spray anything and they're in about 9 hours direct sunlight so they shouldn't be getting burnt

hey guys should I be doing full strength nutes with the new soil the plants are in? my plants are just about 6 weeks old, and would prefer not to burn them.. I'm using fox farm and have been giving half strength nutes for the past 2 weeks

Try giving them a weeks worth of full dose and see how that goes,If your worried about burn ease them into full strength,
Just keep adding more each watering till your at full.
