Anyways I think I finally won the root aphid fight.

I got some azamax, sprayed all over my grow space with it and did a root drench. I think the Spinosad and BT i was using before put a dent in their population.

I'm anticipating to wake up tomorrow and survey the graveyard.

Immediately after the treatment I didnt see a single one moving anywhere

Also started up a killer compost tea that will be ready for the next watering to undo any harm I did to the benis, gonna add some Great White right before I irrigate as well.

I throw up some pics tomorrow to prove that I actually have plants other than that dead male lmao

Edit: Fuck it. i'll throw up a few pics I took this morning before the treatment:

Thanks again for all the replies guys. Like SKy Rocket said, it's got to be the temps. I took the temp 3 1/2 hours after changing and it was back up to 27c....the room is sitting at around 25c at the moment due to outside temps here being in the high 20s and 30s. Not that this is an issue 99% of the year, lol...but of course it is just as I start with the bloody clone thing, lol. And to run a chiller through it just isn't worth the cost or hassle. I think I'll go for the smaller pump, then try the timer thing with it going off and on. Perhaps it would also be a good idea to run a water stone in their at night instead of the pump constantly going.......

Did you not see any of my million posts basically screaming pool shock ;) (I am assuming this is an aero cloner issue¿) it works, it's hotter than hell, literally, where I live and I don't change my water at all, ever never nope, won't do it :) running 90+ for a month (water temps) - this one's at 7 days since cut. So fucking use pool shock even if you don't have problems, because they happen!!! Lol jk, but seriously, use it.

Hang on, I lied :( it's only 83 right now, but it's night time, I actually haven't checked in day time but I think it's 90ish, gotta be. All these are Day 6 and 7. It really works and everyone should use it! I am NOT a pool shock rep BTW lol. It's only 7$ and lasts at least 5 years (unless your cloner holds like 100 gallons or something, then it'll last like 3 years) heh

You'll be very happy you did :) it needs to be this kind (it's calcium hypochlorite), hth shock n swim. Best investment for clones ever. I bought this about a year ago, I have about 4 years left in there 8-)

Timers aren't meant for aerocloners, they're meant to be run 24/7. I use a 300ish gph pump and my cloner is 5 gallon (but ONLY 2.5 gallons of water in it). Aero is meant to be high pressure to work properly (and higher power means more oxygen which equates to less bacteria). Check pump gph and adjust if needed. Some cloners don't even come with a good enough water pump which can lead to failure of clones (bacteria).

I've run my cloner without cleaning it (using the shock) since last November I believe. 100% success, backed up by my journal :) I never, ever, lose a clone and following this, no one else will either :hump:

Another edit because I can never produce what I'd like to say in one post - 1gr of pool shock per one gallon of water. This makes a solution. From this solution you use 30ml or 1 tbs per 5 gallons of water.. Every 2-3 days. I set an alarm on my phone for 3x a week. Mon-wed-fri
