no think of your drowning your other beneficial organisms too.

I'll bet you a million internets your bugs are not root aphids, are not causing damage and are part of the soil web helping to finish your plant. water when dry, use organic fertilizers, dont harvest early. put some sticky traps around to monitor pests. take a picture of your pest and post it here for positive id.
 
They are root aphids so you owe me a million internets. Second what are organic ferilizers? I would never harvest early... Im treating with Caps Bennies (because Im not a newbie) and some azamax its too late to go nuclear and merit them. So now I have another problem because I thought it was something else. Anyone know how to reverse too much P without flushing.... Should I give them chelated iron? I dont use Cal Mag, but I believe its in my base nutes which are Advance Conniseur should I just up my dose of base, I currently use only a 1/2 strength

Other things I use are as follows
Soil Sunshine 4 mixed with Worm Castings and OG Biowar Foilar and Root Bennies Fabric pots

Sea Green by Primordial
AN Products
Conniseur BASE
Big Bud
Nirvana 1/2 strength
Canna Boost 1/2 Strength
Bud Factor X
Hyrgrozyme
Botanicare Sweet
B52
I mixed is some bud blood 1st week and some pk 13/14 4th week
