 please help, these things are in the soil they are tiny 0.5mm, they are not on the plants. plants look fine. but there has to be 1000,s of them in the soil, "gross" plants are 1 month old .im trying to get pics but it is difficult. how might i get rid of them? ive searched for hours on these things for help. they are not spider mites, there is nothing flying around or jumping. i can see them thoughout the soil because ive got my plants in clear plastic bags with many air holes. i used miracle grow poting soil from walmart, seems to drain well .

 This particular seed has been dormant for a while, slightly opened, but yesterday I saw this grey crap around it. It's starting to spread to the neighboring seed too, is it normal or do I need to do something? On an unrelated note, another seed was slightly germinated but facing the wrong way. I used a pair of tweezers to turn it over but accidentally damaged the sprout sap a little, will it still grow out? (germinating period - about 9 days so far) Last reply by 420 HELI,

 I just noticed this morn some tiny little sandfly like bug emerge from my netpot. I think it may be a fungus gnat but im not sure. Maybe 1mm long, black to grayish with wings. I think theyre in the medium. There also seems to be another tiny little ant thing. Heaps smaller than a standard ant though. None of them can be too bad yet as the sticky traps I always use dont have shit on em. I know a foto would help but no can do and even if i could theyre too small. Can you guys have some guesses as to what they may be so I can have a search and try to figure out what these are? I'll tell you what theyre not - not white fly, dont think theyre thrips, not aphids, not…  Last reply by bufo marinus, Last reply by bufo marinus,

 *** Why not to use bug bombs *** Bug bombs are some times used by cannabis growers to get rid of various infestations. They should not be - full stop Why? Even if you believe with all your heart and mind that chemical companies never lie to us and that they are safe when used as directed (check on how Michael J Fox got his parkensons disease) they are not intended for use on anything that is to be put into the human body. Spraying bug bomb poisons on your cannabis and then smoking it is very very bad for you. People should not inhale burning pesticide or eat it either. In point of fact, the instructions on bug bombs (and other pesticides) say very plainly not to … Last reply by yields,

 I'm talking about growing via dirt, not hydro. I need a product for damping off. I'd like a suggestion of something systemic and I can't afford Banrot and other professional products. I need something "hobby grower" priced. Please don't tell me how to prevent damping off because I already know the whole sterilizing, air circulating, not crowding seedlings, etc, etc, etc. I know it all. And I'm not interested in home cures because hydrogen peroxide, chamomile tea, cinnamon and all the other junk you'd find in a kitchen did not work for me. I need a commercial product that I can order. I don't need advice on how to prevent it or what home remedies you swear by. I kn… Last reply by nobodyknew,

				Hey guys, need some help with a positive ID of a little infestation I've got going on in my soil mix. From reading here and checking out pictures via google I think I've got GNATS. I just need a second opinion before I sort the little buggers out. They're tiny "nearly microscopic" white bugs that have been crawling around the soil for a day or so. When I checked up on the girls today there were literally hundreds of them and they were jumping (maybe attempting to fly) from the soil to the sides of the tub. When you look closely it actually looks like the fizz off a fresh glass of soda water if that makes any sense. I also noticed a few larger versions of the sa… Last reply by yields,

 hey, im a first time grower. and i have little tiny bugs crawling around in my soil. i have done some research and i could almost say they are spider mites. but they arent nescesarily on the plant. its a baby seedling and i see one or two of the suckers on the plant crawling around but most are just running around in the soil and on the rim of my pot. the temps in my growbox are about 32- 35. they are whiteish yellow and they look closest to spider mites. yeh so any help would be appreciated Last reply by Radic,
