daddy long legs...

do daddy long legs spiders harm plants..ive heard they just eat other possibly harmfull insects

Yes, just other bugs, probably a good critter to have in a growroom. Unless you don't like spiderwebs in your face at night.

Daddy Long Legs don't produce silk, so you don't have to worry about webs.

They may be ok for a grow room but they annoy the crap outta me! they always seem to fly straight into your face the little bastards! Supposed to be one of the most poisonous insects on earth too, lucky they can't sting you!!

oh wait i'm talking about cranefly's. doh!

actuall, they lay eggs which become botts, which are evil, they eat roots. wether they eat marijuana roots i dont know, but i wouldnt wana chance it.
