You can try repotting the plants with sterilized potting soil. Fungus Gnats are real buggers to get rid of.

Thats a bit too extreme for me i think I'll just keep on fighting them fuckers now...... and prey they dont get worse
 
Re: "Sour-Bubba" OG Growing under some CFL's:

Heard diatomaceous earth works sometimes if you spread a layer anywhere the larvae will try and surface.

If the DE gets wet though it won't work well, it works on the basis that dry it sucks all the protective coating from the larvae and they dry out. Also heard for really soft bodied larvae it like a torture chamber for them to climb through.

Anyway good luck with your gnats and your girl looks great! :cheertwo: +rep
 
Re: "Sour-Bubba" OG Growing under some CFL's:

I would also suggest discontinuing the molasses until you get the gnats under control - just a feeling, no science to back this up. The DE is the best, tho.

edit to say that's the molasses i use, too.

Yeah i stopped using the molasses till them fuckers die off
 
Re: "Sour-Bubba" OG Growing under some CFL's:

Great job stopping the mollasses. One thing that would help the gnats as well is if you get a cover for the soil. I mean cut a peice of cardboard or plastic to make a cover for the soil. this will keep the soil from drying out fast as well as kill the light so it wont warm up and create the enviorment that is right for breeding of gnats. I do this when I place soil potted plants in my open areas of my hydro area. It always works for me. Just a thought. But trust me it helps.

Good thinking butcher I'll just make a cover out of some cardboard and foil. That should work.... I hope

I think tactical nuke then sombody with a brain shows up " just cover em up"
So if I make my covers out plastic can I at least cover em with sticky so I can see the dead ones............ Make's me feel better:cheertwo:

Re: "Sour-Bubba" OG Growing under some CFL's:

Heyhey, just got caught up on yer grow here. Doing a real nice job. Love the LST, I am using that technique on my plants as well. Sorry to hear about your gnat issue. I know Joe Coffee had a hell of a battle with them little suckers. I think he did end up using DE to help kill off the larvae. Anyways, just wanted to say what up, good job and I will be watching. Stay green brother.
