first grow ever, have knats, need them gone

I had gnats also I sprayed the soil with mighty bomb, Hydrofarm sells the stuff. It killed all the larva in the soil and drastically reduced my problem. Stuff worked . You can even spray the adult gnats and watch them die., I guarantee your problem is in your root zone. The gnats need to land in wet soil to lay their eggs. The larva eat your roots. Look at the soil closely when you water you will see the larva come to the surface for air. Very small white looking . You will see them flipping around. Kill them and solve your gnat problem. The mighty bomb comes inna ready to use 32 Oz sprayer. 1 is all you will need. Google Hydrofarm mighty bomb!

diatomaceous earth is actually made up of the very tiny shells of diatoms which are a form of aquatic life and the way they function is the shells are very tiny and very sharp so crawlies basically cut themselves to pieces crawling around on it.

...the problem though is the same as it is with sand, it works it's way into your media when you water so you'll need to reapply, with the hydroton or lava-rock, or gravel, as i suggested earlier in the thread, you eliminate the environment the larva need to live and if the larva can't live, no more fungus gnats, it really is that easy.

it's vital to understand the life cycle of each pest you encounter so you'll be able to plan effective strategies.
