I realize you may want to rush down to the local store for Gnatrol to put a hurt on these buggers ASAP....
but for those reading along who, like seamaiden and myself....use these products regularly and may want to keep some on hand, I personally think this product is far cheaper to use/goes farther than the gnatrol. with this you use DROPS...not frickin (1-8) teaspons per gallon.

The sand will migrate through the coco depending on how pithy the coco is (how much space it allows for stuff like sand to filter through).To those who have the sand on top of their coco:
I top water my plants by hand sometimes other have feeder tubes..
My question is, how do I water? do I just water on top of the sand? the sand doesn't travel down into the coco if I don't agitate it??
Any information would be great!!!
I love this forum! and you Cali growers know whats up?!?!?! I have learned sooo much and have been having such an excellent time in California!
I use the diatomaceous earth stuff on top of the Coco if I see a problem. What it does it basically is razor blades for those little fuckers. I also use the dry Gnatrol. If you use the Gnatrol you need to use it for a few feedings.
You need to kill the eggs, which what the Gnatrol does, also kills the adults flying around. That is why you need a few applications of the stuff.
This is why I always do what Seamaden does with the yellow sticky traps to monitor things. If you see one of them, then there are more.

I tried sand on top of my coco, as well as DE, it just didn't work well and compacts.
With the fungus gnats, I stopped worrying about it unless I saw they were actually creating a problem. I do occasionally find their poor little dead bodies stuck in the buds, so that bit gets snipped out, but it's rarely very often.
But if it's not fungus gnats and is instead root aphids, you must either wage WAR, or give up growing. First time I've encountered something that's brought me to such a conclusion.
You know what the DE does to bugs hard shell, what do you think it is doing to your tender lungs? JK
