Hello Farmers,
I've recently cleared my grow of Gnats also known as harbingers of death, filthy tiny shit flies. I've dealt with mites, moles, mice, rabits, deer, groundhogs and voles but have never seen the amount of damage that these little shit flies created.
I'm growing in soil, COM and using Advanced. I water every forth day or when bag is light. I tend to stay on the dry side and am perplexed at how I obtained these death flies. I was in week 7 veg when they hit and it took me a couple weeks to rectify the problem. I waited for 5 days of strong growth before flipping to 12/12. I'm noticing explosive stretch and there are some hairs in the crooks but they dont seem to be throwing pistols at the bud sites. Tomorrow will be day 11. Am I just being impatient?
I'm under 335 LED in a 9x9x70" which has never had a problem flowering. The strain is Pebble Punch, a first for me. Perhaps it a slow strain?
I guess Im just wondering if anybody has dealt with Devil Gnat that close to flip?
Final Note, I transplanted into new bags, removing a good portion of the infected soil from Air Pots. Transplanted into fabric. Gnats where able to attack in 3D Due to the Airpots. Will the fresh COM soil effect my flower cycle?
Sorry for length of post but I'd appreciate any responses. Hopefully I'm just being impatient.
