they have just finished week 4 of flower, and i have a perpetual setup planned, would not want to delay harvest by a month... i have seen and killed larvae about a month ago, this is when i thought i won the war, but no! about 3-4 weeks later i have lost the larvae completely, and am struggling with the adults. How can i treat the roots???

Also, if pushing harvest back is the only option, how would this affect yield?

I feel this should be in another thread, or maybe the thread title changed...i need as much professional help as possible. thank you, slunt for guiding me through this....

My leaves keep yellowing, more and more....the yellowing and dying off will soon get to my buds, in the name of cannabis everywhere, I'm begging you, Save My Stash!
