Oh yes lol iv got a tea brewing atm...Iv never done hydro. I considered it but then I found I can't afford a chiller for my res water.
I had a weird experience this grow. Early on I washed a single caterpillar put of my seedlings. Had no more since. I shat myself too lol.
I grow in soil mainly as iv found it a smoother smoke. I have asthma so it counts a lot.
only thing about soil is things take longer to turn around if there's a prob and flushing is just hard work in soil.
How far along along ate the ones u wanna chuck? Bloody website went down earlier. Did u lose service to

The one on the leaf earwig like and off white sounds like a thrip but they leave distinctive marks? But the wigglers in the roots maybe something else? I wonder if it's 2 different bugs. I hope it's not! Can u get a pic?

Yellow ones,sorry,I dive in half way through k.i missed ya say u got hooking down also.Are they folding down the centre as well a bit?like a taco.ive been getting similar to this.trying everything.less N was my first bet.found a solitary bug on leaf,sprayed em down.5 days later find one more.sprayed again.now some roots come away in my hand.looked under scope and I'm sure there's a tiny worm,grub thing on there.tiny.going to get something to plunge roots into and stronger spray.cant afford to lose no more.hope its nothing serious with yours.hopefully it is just cut out some N maybe?

I just realised you says something on thel leaf aswell as the roots.kbellfoy i think it was says thrips.that would be my first guess.

So what the hell am I doing wrong. I have a tub...A air pump and stone...A water heater set at 75. I have tried a few things. Compost and molasses. Compost molasses fulvic acid and myco. Molasses and myco. Molasses myco and compost. Idk I just keep fuckin it up. Iv been on you tube and seen the end results. Mine don't look frothy or bubbly. Just flat. No bad smell. This last one has like chunks of stuff growing in it.
Iv always used a heater. But then I heat my water just for watering lol. I never use cold water. It must be like being in a hot bath and someone chucking cold water on em lol. How's it going with the bugs?
