I do appreciate everyone’s help whether the idea is an issue or not it’s all on my mind and makes me question my self. Cause even though I am pretty hard headed on it not being over watered I’ve still been questioning it in my head. So what I’m trying to say is no advice is unnoticed
Why do you insist on killing beneficial insects? Have you seen any actual damage to the plants before intervention? Insecticidal soaps should be rinsed off the plant after 15-30 minutes otherwise you risk damage to the leaves. I think this is what is going on with the twisty leaves. Even if rinsing is not in the instructions this is a practice I have followed for many years outdoors. You had a Phosphorous problem at one time based on the yellow leaves with brown patches, most likely too much Ca or too much P? But PH problems can cause it also.That’s a good fricken question I wish I knew. They are always the same thing. Pretty sure MOG identified them as compost mites but I haven’t been running soil for a minute. The plants are in coco and I see the bugs in the plants. I originally assumed there wasn’t anything they wanted in the coco which is why they were looking on the plants.
I really don’t know about to quit growing and fumigate the house they are always around just don’t always see them on the plants. So I don’t know if they are the issue or not.
I was gonna say this but as I haven’t ever used coco figured i would let someone with experience chime in!You cannot over fertigate coco! you can under fertigate and cause hydrophobic pockets. The rules are simple No Fertigation until transpiration that is 2 hours after lights on, stop fertigation 2 hours prior to lights out. 20% run-off every day that you fertigate.

Fumigating after the grow is not a bad idea. You might try an ozone generator in the basement, it kills everything including you if not used correctly.
