i forgot to mention neem oil and mustard seed extract are also effective, but you want to be careful with that stuff and dont use these anymore. They are good to adress the problem early/in vegetative state. The other methods i mentioned earlier you could still use them all in flower though without issues.

Mosquito or fungus gnat looking motherfucker. Does not mater its not a pest of the buds, but pluck it out so it does not mold. Gnats will infect the soil but some nematodes or BTi will knock out their life cycle pretty quick. Good Luck!

Hello Mr_Heisenberg, This is a fungus gnat, they live in the soil and the larvea eat the roots. Not much you can and want to do about them in the last week. You plant does look great buddy and almost ready for harvest! Happy Harvest! 💚

looks like a fungus gnat, those like substrate which is always moist and they lay their eggs in it. their larvae can feed on your roots and they are annoying, so you want to handle them by using yellow sticky tape, sf nematodes, predator mites, mulching with thick layer of sand / letting substrate dry out on top, which is not always possible though...
