Found a lot of bugs in my soil. Quite a few jumping but then theres these that look like spiders. I'm growing indoor hps and using soil. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks heaps.
Is that in response to my pictures? If so that's great to hear thanks heaps everyone for your responseThose are beneficial predatory mites known as hypoaspis miles. They eat fungus gnat larvae and springtails along with other soil dwelling pests. Fox farms and other companies add them to their soil to combat fungus gnats.
You're good man. Now I will say their proliferation is an indicator that their prey is proliferating. Keep an eye out for fungus gnats just to be safe and adjust watering habits. I have Afghans that go 12 days no water. They actually grow more vigorously like that.Is that in response to my pictures? If so that's great to hear thanks heaps everyone for your response
