Guys and gals I have an outdoors grow that has an ant colony right in the middle of it... will this be a problem for my plants?

I would be concerned about them harming the roots ... but I'm not sure if they will or not ... perhaps someone else my have a better idea ... you may have to find a way to get rid of them without harming the roots ...

yes they are a problem

i have had a great time picking dead ants out of my bud after
they decided to climb up the plant for a closer look, then
got so stoned they died!

they will eat all the leafs with in days, you will see 100s of them carrying pieces down to their nest. get some ant killer and mix it in the soil and a good sprinkle around the base of the plant.

I am just going transplant. The sight does not get much light. I have just the right place to move them with lots of pricker bushes and light. :mrgreen:
