greenthumbartisanstarted grow question 3 years ago
Gnats come out in full force this time of year in my area. It’s a matter of time before they find their way into the room. What do you guys use as a pest preventative measure?

I've noticed a lack of insects around any of my plants since I started growing basil next to them. I dunno if its fact, but I've read and tried and seems to work. I grow alot of other plants besides marijuana.

Additional Note: Had gnats a few weeks ago, but a quick foliar spray and some mosquito dunks in the res for a week did the job. Haven’t seen them in the room since. I usually use Organicide once a month during veg as a preventative measure. Currently in the first week of flower and want to do give final treatment before can no longer do any spraying. Not a big fan of Organicide just due to smell and residue.

What and why?What are these and do I need to address it?
I'm a couple of weeks in to my grow and just spotted these little critters when I was cleaning my run off saucers. I'm guessing there's more inside the soil are they harmful to my plants?

First Grow 4 weeks into Veg - Let my humidity get too high for 1 night. Need help with mold/septoria/?Last 3 days I've pruned diseased leaves every morning, foliar sprayed peroxide leaves & topsoil, & added some to watering solution. Is only affecting one plant in tent. Humidity no longer issue (was waiting 4 inline fan). If I keep pulling off leaves it's going to die anyway.

translucent pest in soilHi, last watering I've seen tiny translucent insects (about 1 mm) emerging from the soil. They are fast and can jump like a flea. I assume they live in soil. What are these little monsters, should I worry about them and what should I do ? TIA

Preflower and Fungal Gnats, can I use Neem Oil?I just top dressed some Gaia Green into my soil. While mixing it in, I noticed several small flies fly out of the soil, I'm guessing they are fungal gnats. My plant is in preflower and showing pistals. Can I use neem oil in this situation to get rid of them?Week 3

HelpppppI just realized I started getting these pests after I top dressed with wiggle worm worm castings. They say on the bag it’s a natural insect repellant, could these have possibly been disturbed in the topsoil and decided to make their way up my plants and hangout?

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.
