JOE_S_GARDENstarted grow question 2 years ago
The fungus gnats problem weakens the plant, preventing it from taking the given fertilizers. Does anyone have any information on the subject?

All I know is they eat the decaying plant matter, and are more nussiance then anything.
Organomananswered grow question 2 years ago
Usually because the substrate is too wet, constantly.
Let it dry out, they will soon die.
If you go to the menu on the left side of this page and click on "journal", then scroll down a fair way, Grow Diaries have an article dedicated to everything you need to know about fungus gnats and even how to get rid of them.
Hope this helps, Organoman.

Wilting and yellowing leaves after vinegar water solutionI sprayed a mixture of 1/4 spirit vinegar + 3/4 water under the leaves to get rid of aphids (which may or may not have been the problem) earlier today. Now checking on her, I see yellowing of several leaves and wilting of others, which has me worried... normal, or a problem? 😳

Outdoor aphid removal suggestions?Looks like I may have aphids on this plant. Small holes nibbled through, spotted one tiny critter and knocked it off, and then sprayed 1/4 spirit vinegar + 3/4 water mixture on the underside of the leaves, hoping to be rid of the pests. Any further suggestions or thoughts? 😐

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?

Best way to get rid of aphids as a starter?Hi there!
So I recently started with my first grow and I'm really new to all of this.
I started out with a plant outside, The Aphids must have come with the plant once I've switched to indoor growing.
I ordered myself some Spinosad.
Any other suggestions or tips?

Guest ️Ciao a tutti! Sempre io con la domanda su i vermi neri, ho fatto delle foto migliori, e da vicino si capisce che sono larve di qualche insetto... Sul letto del mio impianto trovo morti moscerini e zanzare e una strana falena bianca
Googleando non ho trovato riscontri, idee?? 🐛☠️

Brown spots and holesHad snails and aphids earlier, but knocked them out. I'm these brown spots / holes in my girl. Don't think they're the snails and don't see any bugs.... been rainy and fairly cool, 60-70F. PH is currently high at 6.9. Any thoughts or recommendations for a mostly clueless newbie?

Is my weed rotting? Please help and thank you in advance, I am starting to become a little paranoicI am curing my weed and I found some small bugs on the buds (mostly flies), there were not a lot but I am a bit worried since also the color is starting to look a bit strange, or are maybe only the amberish trichomes? Also could bug go inside pistils? I found this strange thing
