Its autoflower Blue Mystic at about week 5. Started with one 125W CFL a little too far away, then about a week ago I added two 40-ish watt soft white CFLs about 2 inches from the sides. 24-0 entire grow. So I know there is stretching and it is kinda underdeveloped. My problem, though, is the leaves. When i first added the extra lights, I think I burnt a leaf tip, so I dismissed that discoloration as a burn. Then I go away for the weekend and come back to find the burn spots arent any bigger, maybe smaller, but on the new leaves it is brown and dry and sticky to the touch. The green leaves arent sticky tho. I am growing with Roots Organic soil and have added nothing to it except some garden lime earlier today as I am hoping the plant just needs the PH to be right, and I do NOT have a meter. Also, in the soil, there are these bugs. At first i thought fungus gnats and put up a sticky trap thing. I only caught a few and each one looks different. I have a cat that likes to chill in the light wit the plants for some reason so I'm positive one or two are fleas. The rest just look like gnats. Though I always thought if it was fungus gnats would be alot more. I dont really see any flying around. But in the soil. I see very very very tiny bugs, from white, to greyish, and they just crawl around then vanish. I'm sure the "vanishing" is hopping away. Making me further think fleas are living in the soil. Do fleas cause harm? Can they even live in soil? Or do i actually have fungus gnats? Ive bought and sprayed neem oil yesterday. Now just waiting to see what happens but any help would also be appreciated. Here is a picture or few:
