just found this if it any good to ya tess :48:
Generally harmless to cannabis unless they are found in large numbers, grasshoppers are insects from the Acrididae family with legs designed for jumping long distances. The males make a high pitch clicking sound

Grasshoppers are treated as tourists in small numbers.They stay around only for a short period of time and move on. Grasshoppers are best hand picked from your plants if you wish to control them. Birds also eat grasshoppers.

I Just looked at my plants closely and can see little white mites on the soil "Think they may be spider mites" Holy **** Im gonna have to go and get something for them anyone reccomend anything Im in the uk????

 

[tess]

Any ideas?

..if they're in the soil, 'probably' not mites. Mites predominately live and die on the undersides of your begetation.
ANY pests in the soil can be controled, if not totally eliminated by useing "diatomaceous earth".
