i know it's not ph related, because according to my meter, the ph has always been between 6.5-6.8 and they're fed purified water. the bugs that i've found i believe are fungus gnats. i made up some of that wonderful smelling garlic and soap pesticide and sprayed them last night. i'll have to check today when the lights go on. if that stuff doesn't work, off to the hydro shop for some chemicals.

after some research, i've found that they are not fungus gnats, although i don't know what they are, they're not that. the little fuckers jump just like fleas do. i'm thinking they're thrips, but i'm gonna get one under my 'scope and see what it looks like up close and personal. any other ideas, guys?
