There's a trick.. and I've tried them all. And I'm 99% sure it's gonna work this time. Nematodes. And air movement. The gnats do not like to be blown around.them runtz look super nice wow.

Rice hulls help me keep them away. Dries out the surface of the soil and kills the babies while keeping the soil deeper down moist and protecting the soil from the light as well. Love them all around. But your solution is reallyThere's a trick.. and I've tried them all. And I'm 99% sure it's gonna work this time. Nematodes. And air movement.

only had them a few times and mainly come from the soil, normally i get rid by usin fresh soil and dump my old. but lately i have been reusing soil so might after try some nematodes to. you ever tried a hydrogen peroxide wash at the soil, to run through the pot.There's a trick.. and I've tried them all.

No . and only because I rely on microorganisms to break down my organic inputs. If I was doing bottle feeds then yes, I think peroxide would kill them on contact. Unfortunately keeping the microorganisms alive requires the soil to stay moist all the time, which is the perfect environment for gnats. And.... nematodes. I already dosed the soil before moving it to their new pots and will dose them again in about 2 weeks or so for good measure. The use of peroxide would kill off the beneficial microorganisms in my soil.only had them a few times and mainly come from the soil, normally i get rid by usin fresh soil and dump my old. but lately i have been reusing soil so might after try some nematodes to. you ever tried a hydrogen peroxide wash at the soil, to run through the pot.
yeh i understand that when i reuse the soil, ill try wash it i dont want to wash them when plants are growing no way. just to get rid/ wash at the end of the cycle. if that makes sense.No . and only because I rely on microorganisms to break down my organic inputs.

I'll definitely give that a try if this doesn't work out, thanks.maybe wash at the end, then pre charge the soil if that makes sense. keep them at bay and keep soil clean, it probz will kill most beneficial stuff but you can all ways add it back and should keep it clean to.
