Should I Harvest Early?? (Root Aphids)

Accidently sprayed my plants with neem oil with lights on and they took some serious burns to nearly every leaf. under a 1000 and 600 watt hps about 5 weeks into flowering. the ones under the 600 seem to be doing much better and less burnt. the plants under the 1k are a lot smaller and they have root aphids i believe or some bug in the soil eating the roots i had the same problem last cycle. Trichs are about 1/3 clear and 2/3 milky no amber. i think ima get some sand and put it on top of the soil. most of the pots have very poor drainage and it seems like the water just pours out not absorbing any of the water.

seems like you're almost there and might as well try and let the buds ripen as much as possible. just my opinion, i'm no expert, but that's what i'd do :peace:

yea i was thinking the same thing and just hope that root rot wont ruin my buds. anyone know how to kill these suckers besides putting sand on the soil? or how to prevent them because this is the 2nd time around and i cleaned the room completely when i finished my 1st cycle and i think my clones were infected too. also do you think my clones/seedlings will be big enough to be put into flower in about 4-5 weeks? im going to go buy more clones/teenagers from a clinic even though i hate doing it but just because i dont have enough time/resources to clone myself.

Id let em finish up I had root aphids too last time and they finished just stressful. Your probably getting em from where you get your clones or it seems soil bags have em to start with.

Starting from seed, treating your soil with nematodes or i had real good luck with green lacewings could help.

Many treat clones brought into theyre grow area by quarantining em and going nuclear on em regardless if theyre showing signs of infection or not. Im very weary of clones and bags of soil.
