Fungus Gnat infestation

YoungGrower6789started grow question 4y ago

Fungus Gnats infestation - how to get rid of them quickly and forever? I am actually not 100% sure it's them, but hundreds of tiny white bugs are crawling on the surface and the result is that the plant just can't grow. I need help please, thank you in advance

Wayyyyy too much water my dude. It’s sitting in a puddle. You gotta get that drained and drying.

Mycorizzeah is a good way to kill them off, if they got on the leaves use Neemoil.

Hungry hungry caterpillars So here is a new fun one. So i thought the webbing on a couple of buds where spider mites….. turns out i was very wrong. Luckily im not squeamish so dove in and opened the bud cluster to clean off the webbing and low and behold little tiny caterpillar. Will a fine net stop this?

Eaten leafs by something?Hi, there's some sort of pest eating away at my leafs but it's just on a few and I can't seem to find the culprit! Anyone have any ideas? Could it be something else? It's my first grow so I'm not at all sure. Should I leave it or do something to treat? Cheers all!

Neem oil in coco 6-7 weeks into flower Growmies!... Is Neem oil OK to use in coco when 6 - 7 weeks into flower? Pests are in the medium, not the foliage. I read that the plant can absorb some taste/smell from the Neem.. Anybody have any experience with drenching medium with Neem this far into flower? And results?...

Thrip control?So I have a small case of thrips. At first I was thinking the white bite marks in the leaves was some sort of deficiency until I saw one of the little buggers! Luckily it doesn't look bad so I'm just going to Finnish the run. Are there any mid flower treatments? Thanks

She’s already showing pistils and hasn’t started to really grow yet. Should I avoid topping? I’m afraid she won’t recover and I’ll hurt the potential yields.
