HELP! Fungus Gnat Treatment

[duckman]

As my pirate friends would say, Aarrgh!

Don't sweat, duckman. Fungus gnats're annoying and tickle up the nose. That's about it. They won't hurt anything except a little pride for not growing the perfect crop.

Next time, you have a few heads up. The perlite layer sounds like a great way to treat an in utero infestation.

An ounce of circulation is worth a pound of cure. A pound of cured is priceless.

...that makes good sense, to me, Gingerbeard. thanks for all the help!

It can be a bigger problem with hydro setups...I've read that the dirty little phuckers can bring pythium into your rez.

The larva are quite damaging to roots. Can kill small plants.

Also weakens the plant and then bam pathogens or other pests tag along.
