Just rread the whole thing. subbed.
right on .. thanks for droppin in Askeezy .. grab a seat and stick around.
Update:
So I have been lucky with bugs ( I haven't had any major problems). Well I have seen this little fucker crawling on my pots when watering this last week. I only saw one, but you know if you see one...there are more. So I only saw it for a second, but it looked kind of like a light brown centipede, had long antenae on its head, and is fast as shit. So this is what I think I found.
What are Symphilids?
Small pests which look like tiny 1-2 millimeter, cream or white colored centipedes.
But unlike centipedes (harmless to plants), they destroy small roots and burrow into the larger ones, where corky patches indicate areas that these pests have gnawed.
Your plant will begin to show signs of necrosis and leaves will start to die off.
It does not take long for the whole plant to become affected with no recovery from the damage.
Symphilids are not normally found in sterilized potting mixtures. They most commonly occur when using manure or compost based mixtures which have not been sterilized.
If infestation is suspected here's a way to determine if you have them:
When you water your plant they will rise to the surface of the soil and you can plainly see them crawling on the top of the soil.
If you do find an infestation, than the soil will need to be treated with an appropriate pesticide.

I am not sure that this is my bug, but am not taking any chances. So tonight I added 10ml per gal of azatrol to my res before feeding. I gave each plant ~2 gals per plant.
Then I drenched the canopy ( from the bottom up) with Safer spray. I only saw two gnats while I was crawling all around under and through the canopy. I should have knocked them down too with this treatment.
The other issue that has developed the last two days is some yellowing of a few of the top fans..particularly on one plant. This may be from the bugs..it is strange that it is mainly on one plant. It could be manganese deficiency which I understand is common in soil-less mediums.
And here are a couple more bud shots I took while I was at it.
