ok i looked around a bit and couldnt find what im looking for so here is a thread about it.. i have gnats in my dirt and cant figure out how to get rid of them, i have used neem oil without any sucess and dont know what to try next. when i take a new clone out of the cup there are damn gnats burrowing around thru the dirt, any ideas? thanks all
rippin-tubes.. the best thing u can do is put sand(local beach sand is fine if u dont want to spend money) on top of your soil that should stop them. i have used this method before and it worked great.hope this helps.
thats a really good idea man, thanks alot!! this is why i love it here haha its been a year since my last visit but im glad to be back, have some rep dude.
you need perlite or more of it at least in your soil and make sure no water is pooling.. fly sticky paper and put sand on top like he said.. the fly paper alone will take the ones in the air and above and the sand kills the ones in the soil from coming back
Do this....this will get rid of them for sure.... add sand to top of soil, gnats dont like to lay eggs in sand put fly paper around pot.... allow plant to dry out more than the others before watering.... also get a dish add water and dishwasher soap or vinager, leave it in the grow room, the ghants will kill themselves.... this should fix it in 4 days... if it is bad, i would get gonats or something stronger..... if this works you owe me buds
