Hi SirGrowMedical,
Best way to beat those little buggers is with beautiful smelly plants.
Leaving a list of plants you can have in your grow that will make every mosquito run to the sun. xD
Basil
Catnip
Citronella
Lavander
Rosemary

Yes fungus gnats are a common problems with seedlings, you shouldn't water too much, wait for the soil to dry to water again and you shouldnt have too much problems with them, they love a humid environment ! Good luck

If you go to my page and check out my recent grow diaries, you'll notice the perilite/sand layer on every plant I have in my tent, it's the only way I have ever got rid of them fully.

I think you may have fungus gnats, they are very common I get them every grow. They lay eggs in the top layer of soil. If you cover it with rice holes, sand, perilite.. they won't be able to penetrate it.
I use sand or perilite. Put enough down that it will cover the top of your pot and then let your media dry up a bit for a few days and that should take care of them

Pest attack. What can I use to eradicate?3 weeks of flowering, and the pests are still here. Can I play Beauveria Bassiana? Or just neem oil?
- The temperatures were very high here, exceeding 30°C, this week it will decrease.
- I have other plants to harvest and I'm going to take advantage and clean the grow.

What are these bugs and what to do about them?Hi,
I spotted these on one of my balcony plants today. Somekind of mites?
They were around the sugar to middle sized leaves on new growth. It's around early to mid flower.
I removed the leaves that had the most on them and tried to get rid of those who were left. What else to do?

Bug problem aftermathSo I got rid of my whitefly problem with the amazing dr zymes eliminator. Now I am wondering if I should spray the plants with water to try to get rid of residue perhaps Now rather than doing a wash after harvest ? BTW they should be done within 2 weeks.

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
