Something attacking my roots?

Notice my girls stressing, checked a few things, found thoses fxcker under my Rockwell. Tryed a high dosage of merit 75 but seems no effect. Root aphids or type mites, guessing not aphids because the merit 75 didn't work.
Tray flood and drain. With Rockwell

Sorry for the crappy pictures
Thanks for stoping by

Slightly better picture, anyone got some ideas ? Those f@@ker are killin my plant!

I think its a predatory mite probably eating the bad guys. Post a picture of the plant damage. Check out this link http://www.breedbay.co.uk/forums/cultivation/201364049-beneficial-predatory-insects.html

you may also (probably already are) post in a more scientific horticultural site... I have limited experience at that level myself... most gardeners Id say fit that desc... and maybe canna growers more so (just because there's so many, many of which are pretty new to gardening as a whole). I hope you get an answer and, if so, please share it with us

if its insects eating your roots then my advice is

Spinosad (ant stop uk or captain jacks usa)

Nematodes can take care of most root zone pests seen them explode out of spiders and yellow jackets like some kinda alien worms lol

Then I like a nice layer of rock or perlite in the bottom of the pot and on top

stuff like blue fly sticky traps works

I also spray the plants at least once during veg with a 6 week lasting fruit and veg spray

then once during flower I`ll normally nail them spraying with an organic bug killer (and some pgr`s and "halo") and or use a fogger too, (bed bug natural type)

There`s also some pills I get to put in the root ball sometimes from germany but I only use them if we`ve had thrips get out of hand I`ll use half a pill per plant in veg and I do veg for something like 6 to 12 weeks, so keeping the bugs away is key to getting nice buds by the end no one wants white or rusty chewed up leaf that`s for sure

Oh and lacewing grubs/larvae are pretty good but I don`t use them as I don`t like too many flying bugs have to clean the lights more, lol

Soybean aphid

aphid , must be a super aphid. I hit it with a high dosage of merit 75. I guess it some type of mite. Here are better pic. Stay ya updated. Thanks

Look at the link I posted and scroll down, it looks like a predator mite. It could be eating bad mites or thrips. I would be looking for other bugs. If you put up some pictures of the damage I might be able to tell you whats doing it.

Hey sorry, for the late reply. I try to see if there any other visible pest no luck. But my girls look really stressed. I did do a strong azaguard root Dench, here some pictures. I didn't even bother trim them yet, figure less stress

Thanks

Looks like mites to me also, onyx spider mite spray. Its all natural, the problem with a lot of other miticides is that they are bad for you and your buds. You don't want to turn your buds into cigarettes, which is basically what your doing if you spray them with a ton of chemicals. Get something you can use throughout harvest, also if its all natural and safe you can feel safe about give a throughout spray without having to wear a Hazmat suit.
