Hey guys, pretty sure I have fungas gnats, doesnt seem like a huge infestations ( I have been able to find about 6 total over my 2 plants) I am not taking chances and picked up some gognat today, I have a feeding tommarrow and will introduct it into my nutrient solution. the one thing I am curious about is if in fact they are gnats....they have wings, there small, and they are black....however they dont really have the elogated body I have heard about.

..................................................scrape an inch of soil from the top of your pots and replace with an inch of sand this will stop them burrying down and stop the layed eggs from reaching the surface
