Hi @Rojif Eggs, larvae, and pupa, will all live in the top inches of the soil. They will need moisture and fungal spores to survive. By simply allowing the top 2 inches of your medium to dry out between waterings, you will make it harder for the fungus gnats to live there.
At the very least, this will massively reduce the amount of bugs in the grow room. Most cases of bugs and pests can be put down to bad waterting practise. It is vital, especially when growing with soil or organically, to allow the medium to dry out a little between waterings. Good luck mate 🙏👍

Well hopefully that is the case! Fungus gnats can be a pain in the ass! That’s why now we only use good soils to prevent fungus problems! We’ve been there lol! But if the white powder keeps up then that means it powder mildew which is very common for indoor growing! Watch your humidity! Don’t let it get much over 50 rh that will help! If it continues then you can get some bushwhacker or something like that’s from your local grow store to control the mildew! Good luck 👍🍀

Help the HermyMy worst nightmare has become reality, my Pineapple Chunck (Week 7 of Flower) has developed male pollen sacs. What is your advice for me now? Remove the whole plant? Cut off branches? Harvest the plant now? The other plants are showing no signs, but I'm afraid it will be seedy 😵

What are your best experiences for treating white powdery mildew? (4th week of flower)I carefully removed all the leaves with WM on it, but i want to spray the leaves to hinder further development of the mildew. What are your best experiences? I've read about milk solution, maybe citric acid solution with a ph of 9? Can i spray the buds too? Thanks for your help!

Is this powdery mildew? How can we know for sure?Could these white spots be mildew? We could easily just basically shake them off, without any residue remaining. Currently only discovered in those two spots seen on the picture.
In pics I find from mildew, it usually starts more dusty.. I also made one picture under the micro.

White Spots on top of LeavesI have discovered white spots on my plants. I think it is white mildew. From what I have read, the spores cannot be killed. You can only stop them a with pesticides or, if you are lucky, with a milk/water mixture, but you cannot remove them completely. What should i do?

I have noticed small powdery mildew spots on my pineapple express plant. The soil usually feels pretty dry so i don't think it is due to overwatering. I put them inside at night due to humidity outside. Should I separate this plant from the rest?Week 7

On my other grows I've had some issues with pests. The worst was white powdery mold, but I've also seen leaf miners, aphids etc.
I want to treat this plant pre-emptively with something like BioNeem. Is it safe to do that at this stage of bloom? Can you recommend safe alternativeWeek 6

Best treatment for combating white powdery mildew at first sign of it? I used a non toxic sulfur spray with some defoliation of the more prominent leaves, especially any close to a bud site. It helped keep it at bay but had to be reapplied weekly and still fighting it daily.Week 11
