Hi guys I am absolutely panicking here, I've been plagued with problems for months and I'm starting to think it has been these gnats all along, it seems I have a severe fungus gnat infestation that is about to put the last nail in my coffin. I am growing in coco coir in fabric pots. Recently I noticed my top leaves showing what I thought was a deficiency however it seems much more likely it is disease or severe fungus gnat issue, root rot or both. If the only cause of root rot in coco is sitting in there own runoff I don't think it could be that as all of my plants are experiencing this and only some ended up sitting close to their own runoff (broken waste system, water overflowed into grow tent, don't know how long its been like that but I've cleaned up now) I had leaves on top of the sand layer I placed on top of my coco to prevent gnats from laying. Don't know how well this worked. I started with gnat infested reused coco on this grow and I will never do this again, fresh coco every time from now on, extra cleanliness from now on and I will never make this mistake again. Have a look at the leaves, I've googled fungus gnat damage and it looks similar, but it could be root rot or something else, the damage began about 1 week ago at the canopy I started noticing it come on gradually and thought it was a deficiency but it looks worse I don't know, if this continues for 3.5 more weeks I think they will die by the looks of things. It also could be root rot as the environment under my canopy has not been very clean due to the big spill of my waste system that I missed for who knows how long, it could have been weeks of swamp conditions, I have 3.5 weeks left of flowering and I need to save what I can from this crop, will multiple applications of nematodes stop this progressing, H2O2 flush? Am I completely doomed if this isn't stopped in its tracks? I guess I need to know for sure what it is before deciding the fix as im not enyitepy sure its the gnats. Could be pyth or root rot or somethig else. If I don't fix this I am in big trouble, please guys, if you have any ideas let me know, if you need more pics or info let me know. Thanks for your help.
