HELP ! I think I have fungal gnats
nards__420started grow question 4 years ago
Hey guys ,
I’ve noticed my plants start wilting and a few little yellow spots and lots of gnats flying around the grow room :(((
I’ve ordered some yellow sticky pads to hang around and also will cease to water for a few days ! Any advice would be greatly appreciated !

Hello
Fungus gnats are a pain!
The best most effective treatment I've found is the granular "mosquito bites" they sell them everywhere, garden stores, home depot..Walmart. sprinkle it on soil, in any saucers under pots and most importantly soak some in a gallon of water overnight and water the soil thoroughly. It'll kill most of the larvae in there.
You can also do neem meal or cake and similar thing soak overnight and stir and then soak the soil.👍 problem should be solved or manageable. Keep the yellow sticky cards though right above the soil and that way it can catch any flying adults.

You probably do have fungus gnats, but I do not think that's causing the wilting. I think you are over-watering her. Water in BTI its an organic biological.

Sounds like you are moving in the right direction! Would recommend what you are doing and some diatomaceous earth powder to sprinkle on the soil—- it’s like shards of glass for the bugs. And maybe a pest management spray—- Amazing Dr Zymes is good to spray on the soil and plants... good luck!

Curled leaves and brown spotsPlease help! My Acapulco Gold suddenly showed leaf symptoms today. Shouldnt be a lock out, I always water with drain and use lower doses than the BioBizz chart recommends. Used Molasses two days ago, could that be the cause? Its the only plant that shows this signs.

Yellowing, wilting, stunted growthCan anyone please help me identify whats wrong with them. I've done a flush, adjusted the lights, reduced the nutrient strength, I've pretty much done everything and still stunted growth and they are still looking weak and frail. I'm lost and I don't even know what's wrong.

Damaged leavesThe first two images are both the same strain with similar problems. The leaves are not developing to their full length, almost like they are cut in half. Also the smaller leaves are curling downwards and are completely stiff, almost crispy. Any idea what that might be?

So I noticed on day 6 she started to stretch, she was the leggiest out of all 4. I swapped out the cup as it had a surround on it for jug to improve light.
I think this has helped.
BUT her cotyledons are very dark green and curling down and under, and her top is smaller+darker??
