those bugs contribute to the tacoing of the leaves. those leaves really tell you what's going on - removing damaged leaves early is easy way to ignore a bigger problem!Well I just fed them and there are lil white bugs are moving around in my coco after I water they started moving around. I think they are springtails but could also be soil mites or root aphids... This sucks.
I tried to capture them on my phone but it's hard to see.
Do you know how to treat them? Pretty sure I got root aphids.those bugs contribute to the tacoing of the leaves. those leaves really tell you what's going on - removing damaged leaves early is easy way to ignore a bigger problem!
neem oil, i don't like pyrethrum ( which is now not legal in grow ops) , i know a user here had used baby power, you can spray the undersides with soapy water (just a few drops of soap) every couple weeks.Do you know how to treat them? Pretty sure I got root aphids.
You can identify Rice Root Aphids by their stove pipes on their ass. It is Rice Root Aphids that attack cannabis. If you go on google and look up an image of them you will see what they look like. They are difficult to kill. UC Roots or Athena Clense both have Hypocloris acid at the main ingredient to make the media sterile. You can use this to kill them off but it does take a week or two. Neem Oil is not really going to do too much because you have to get it well down into the root zone.Well I just fed them and there are lil white bugs are moving around in my coco after I water they started moving around.

@Anthem would a root drench in hydrogen peroxide/water kill them? The reason I ask is I have a shit load and it's cheap.You can identify Rice Root Aphids by their stove pipes on their ass.

Some pest we can deal with root aphids are way worse that spider mites in my opinion - eggs can lie dormant for months - and hard to diagnose they show all kinds of symptomsI’m sure he will be back and much more knowledgeable but no timid they are root aphids you will need to sterile your grow area imo - sorry for the bad news
Not rice root aphids thank goodness it's a fuck load of springtails. I overwatered the shit out of my plants and created a breeding ground for the fuckers..Some pest we can deal with root aphids are way worse that spider mites in my opinion - eggs can lie dormant for months - and hard to diagnose they show all kinds of symptoms
