IMG_20200119_170438_320.jpgi need help. So guys here attached is my week by week grow update so far day 29 to date. These seeds was from a Crystal cookies V2 batch that I brought off someone and ended up with hermie bud with 28 seeds from 3.5 grams.

So blah blah blah done some research and thought, eyy what the heck what have I got to lose...

So I made a grow setup in my cupboard. 600w led light, x2 pc fans one fast one slow and a loud of intake and exhaust fans.

Do far so good untill start of week 3..
I was having a look at the soil and boom. I spot white crawling fuckers. Only one or two I seen so I believe quiet early (I know they probs are hundreds) but the point is it took me 20 mins to spot 2 of them.

I'm 90% confident I have root aphids. The growth slowed if not completely stopped, leaves started to deform and wilt and the plants looks unhappy.

So I gave them a big feed of right fox farm (the brown stuff not green liquids) and lone and behold two days later they are clawing and yellow spotting and looking abit battered and bruised. The latest pics was taken yesterday.

Not all the baby's are as bad as others l, but I need help as it's getting worst and worst :(

Big feeding likely caused lockout of other stuff. N torched plants are usually very dark green.
Pretty in depth bug guide. Click the name of each bug to go to another page with more specific info on that bug. Might help you narrow it down some.

Thanks for your reply, I'm. Having trouble uploading images for some reason but I have some good or should I say bad pictures of the damage as I've checked them today. The soil was dryer than ever so I've gave them a very little light water just water.. I just need my girls to perch back up :(

I have sprayed nite nite spider mite solution twice a day every other day for the last week which seems to of controlled the bug issue fingers crossed. Just makes sense how I gave them a big feeding 2 days ago with nutes and now they are showing signs of burn. I just need to know are they too far gone and throw them out start again, or can they be saved :(

should still be savable.
Im a hydro grower, but I know you can flush your soil some. Wait for someone that can give you more specific help with soil though. Was probably a good move to feed just water though.
Pictures are because you are a new member. Browse the forum some and make some posts to get your post count up and youll be able to post pics soon.

IMO, toss the plants, soil and pots. Clean everything really well and try to figure out the source of the pests. Maybe it came in with your soil? Pets i your grow room? Do you do outdoor gardening and then tend your indoor plants? I have total respect for trying to fix the problem and saving the plants too. To me, a couple seeds and a bag of soil aren't worth the potential time and quality lost fighting pests. Whatever you do, I'd recommend starting low and slow on nutrients. 1/4 to 1/2 what the bottle says and make sure to let cannabis dry real well before watering. GL!

After reading this and looking at your situation again, I am inclined to agree if you cant find a quick for sure fix to the pests.
You arent trying to save a crop thats 8 weeks into flower, it may be best to just sanitize everything to eliminate the pest problem and start fresh.
