So I bought two sets (8/6) of clones from an online breeder. I tried to research them and didn't find anything bad. Now everything is crashing from root aphid infestation and I'm close to killing it all. I'm $600 in on clones and about $200 in on solutions that have done little to stop these...

Thanks..I've seen that too. I'm concerned about seedlings in FFOF showing stress almost immediately. Have you switched to anything you like more?

Hey Driver. I use FFOF and understand what you're saying. How do you determine when you have a cold batch that early in your grow?

Looking for something right now and see it's aluminum and plastic. Any idea which parts are plastic?

Noticed any fliers hanging around your lights?

Just to get some pics out there. This looked like several kind of nute deficiencies as it got worse. FE, K, CA looking symptoms. Early blistering and very obvious bite marks under magnification. Shiny and disfigured leaves with burnt tips and edges were there throughout. I call them black plague.

thanks, nematodes OTW and I'll look into the rest

I'm in veg until I win this war. I'm using FFOF. I've used soap insecticide and neem oil in a mister and spinosad and BTI so far on the roots. Numbers are way down above ground but who knows what's going on down under

Curious why transporting to plastic is helpful...battling an invasion right now

With root aphids you get lots of these crawlers in addition to the winged fukers. The bodies of both are short and round. They are evil at every stage.

Thanks Kushash. I didn't question the soil ph result because I've read that FFOF is supposed to be 6.2-6.4, but I will retest. My wife's miracle grow ps also tested at about 6.2 with my vivosun ph probe

thanks boatguy. that's an easy one to fix

Used a pool test kit and a digital probe to verify the water ph. Tap here is lower, but still close to 7. Would you switch to that? My rain water is collected from a new concrete tile roof so maybe that's affecting it.

thanks simpleaf. would you spray or add when watering?

Looking for the cause of this yellowing of veins on upper leaves. Three weeks since potting clones and seeing similar symptoms on most of the plants. Using FFOF with Cali hot soil in the bottom third of 5 gal fabric pots. LED 400w fixture at 50% (recently lowered to 25% after seeing some...
