My advice. It sounds like a heavy infestation. Try to kill as many by hand first to get ride of the adults , add sticky traps to catch what ever is airborne, add more circulation around plants to make it harder for the fly to actually fly . Apply more neem oil To kill eggs , keep a dry medium most importantly with out a food source they will want to leave . Black flys

You have to discover where they are coming from. Do you have leaves on the floor that are spoiling? Is the room outside the tent dirty? Unfortunately, strains like strawberry cough do attract more pests. If your environment is clean, all you can really do is continue treating with neem oil and trapping. I also recommend looking into bud washing once you harvest. Seems counterintuitive, but it will make sure you're not smoking bugs and fecal matter. Trichomes dont dissolve in water, so it shouldnt hurt your final product. The 3 bucket method for bud washing is best. Good luck friend!

Fungus GnatsI've been battling a fungus gnat infestation for about 3 months now. Pretty sure they came from a bag of dirt I purchased online. I've tried DE and Monterey Garden Spray. Not sure what effect they are having on my grows, but they are annoying as hell.Other. Bugs

best leaf insects repellentI have found a few bad insects on my plants past weeks. Does anyone have experience with neem oil? Is it worth a try or would I be better of buying something else?
White vinegar with dishsoap didn't help much.
The bugs are: grasshoppers, stinkbugs, spidermites & fungus gnats.

Pulgón justo antes de cosecharEstuve fuera de casa 1 semana, tras hacer lavado de raíces de estas plantas que pensaba cosechar en 2 días. Al volver las he encontrado infectadas de pulgón. He cortado las hojas grandes que estaban llenas de esta plaga, pero todavía queda alguno cerca de los cogollos…solución?

BUGS what are these? How did my plant get them? Where do they come from? How do I get rid of them? They have not been outside of the house: tent, garage, and tub only. The other plants do not show these, but I have separated them until I harvest just in case.
