Wow 2 post"s  LOL Thanks Dieabetic and scott and welcome
A few things i forgot to mention in my 1st post.
The light is a experiment just to see what it can do. I got a double flo light that will prob be going over that plant for veg.
When i get this plant to flower its going under a 200 watt enviro light.
The dirt is bio mix allmix with a handful of perlite mixed in.
Nutes for veg got none at the moment. There in the soil for now i hope.
Nutes for flower bio canna 100% organic bio bloom.
Any questions post it if i can answer i will. cheers dave |

Those little bastards are a sign of over watering...Their larvae will eat your roots...try adjusting your watering schedule to keep them in check.
I wish you luck and hope to see some bud shots soon

OK quick update went out check on the little one this morning and the spider is still there. It"s made webbs around my plant and it was hanging on a webb hanging off one of the floro tubes. It was eating a small fly that it"s caught in it"s webb i was stood watching it for a while then i had to go to work.
It was good to see that this little spider is looking after my plant and i have made a nice clean,warm place for it to live.
So the question is do i leave the spider that is catching small flies in it"s webbs in my grow area ??
Or do i get rid of it and put the sticky fly paper back in there ??

and leave the grow area , into your bed O.o
