    Default Creepy crawlies in coco and in bottom of tray.

    Anyone got any ideas what these little critters are??

    They are bouncing round the coco and I've just seen them in the bottom of the trays swimming about...

    Gnat larvae.... or thrips?

    Im 2 week away from flush... is neem oil worth it?

    Thanks

    Think they might be springtails, if so they only eat decaying stuff

    From behind the bushes

    So that's what springtails look like. With my old fart eyes, they look like animated bits of cotton thread.

    As the saying goes, Life will out. Early days algae grows on the top of the pots, (media dependent,) The canopy grows and the algae dies from lack of light. Then the springtails get busy and eat the dead algae.
