i just planted my outdoor grow and one of the sprous is coming long nicely the other, however had fucking ants on it!? The sprout was small it had JUST come through the soil and was yellow with ants biting it? i took the sprout and put it in another pot where theres no way ants could get to it so will it survive or not? and why would fucking ants attack a marijuana sprout?:fire:

Ant do that sometimes. Usually they aren't a big problem. There are a lot of sprays and traps for ants. Becareful though, sprays might hit the plant and hurt it, and traps are usually okay, but for me I have a lot of chipmunks in my area and they steal them. There was a gel from Raid that I used before that worked really well. Just let your plant keep growing, it should be okay. Sometimes ants chew leaves and sometimes they use plants to collect apihds on. Either way ants are not usually a problem, but this year they have been really bad. They have destroyed a lot of my grass, so I have no choice since, squirels like to steal my trap, but to spray for them.
 
next time take all that stuff into mind when you are preping your outdoor spot. make sure you can eat off that forest floor

Hey, u should be fine.. I know of people who planted on a cut block in 5 gallon bags with ants all over the place!! I didn't even want to stop walking! Their shit looked as good as any bodies but prob better lol. Anyways, the ants left shit alone, hopefully they will in your case and to me, it sounds like u had a few dumb ants just bitting shit- just like fish would... Your fine!
