TL:DR - 2 autos 1 week into flowering. Small white worms on the lower/mid sides of my fabric pots in coco. Plant is healthy. Frequent feeding / wet pots. Springtails spotted. No problems with plants (so far). Should I be concerned?
Hey guys,
This is my first grow in coco under LED's. I've previously grown in soil and a soil / coco mix.
My plants are just in their first week of flowering and the roots have started poking out of the 3 gal fabric pots they're in. I saw some of the roots moving and had to check twice to see they were very thin completely white worms sticking out of the pots as well (along with the roots). They're kinda just wiggling around on the outside.
I've got 2 plants with the same. Just 3 "worms" total that I've seen moving around. One of my plants is completely healthy and doing well whilst the other one has been having weird and twisted growth from its first set of leaves and I feel like it's just a bad pheno type. (Both auto flowers if that helps).
I did notice a spring tail or 2 on the top but these worms / larvae are on the lower / mid sides of the pot. Other than that, no other insects spotted.
I've also been feeding quite vigorously and the plants have been responding well in terms of growth speed (with no signs of overwatering) but that has also been keeping my coco consistently wet.
Do any of you think it's a problem? Maybe just springtails?
Any input would be great! Thanks
PS. If you have any advice for a new coco grower that'd be appreciated too!
