Just had a fungus gnat issue. Diatomaceous earth sprinkled on the soil killed 90% of them. Good luck!

Not sure how this will help you know. But I’m using a supersoil, and put a 1/4” layer of sand on the bottom. No gnat issue so far

Throw in a Hot Shot pest strip overnight and wake up to dead gnats. 🤘😤

hi,
i use to leave 1 inch perlite layer on the top of the soil. this will prevent new gnats to get out and go to reproduce. you can also put a potato slice in each pot and change it every 2.3 days. gnats will go to reproduce in it
cheers

Hi, this is my first grow and I am trying to make it successfull. Unfortunately my plants are growing very slowly because I made a few mistakes in the first 3 and a half weeks. I think the crucial one was using CFL 250W Bloom light. Do you guys think I can save this grow?Week 4

2 part, first I found a few black dots (picture added to this week) which I thought might be pests but didn't move - research says it could be catapiller droppings but can't find any of those - what else could they be? Second I did find a spider chilling assume he's good?Week 13

Spider Mite ProblemSpider Mite Problem at week 8.
I just realized this problem, a severe spider mite infestation on one plant. I defoliated the plant to get rid of most of them as I thought I can get away with this until the end of the flowering. Any other suggestions are more than welcome!Other. Bugs

Huge Slug ProblemHaving a huge slug problem at the moment. I looked up the species on the internet and they are known as the Hutt. I have tried using the Force but it won’t work on him. Does anyone have some (creative) ideas on how to get rid of a giant slug.

Aphids found late in floweringLooking closely at the week 11 photo, you can see aphids on one of the upper leaves. I removed all leaves that had them and gave the plant a light garlic concentrate to discourage further bugs. Should I just harvest now given that Im close to the end anyway? alternative ideas?Week 11
