Now as i look into my pots i no longer see any fungas gnats or any of the flyjng around. Instead i see these tiny milky colored grubs mites, they def not spider mits i kno what thoose look like. Maybe it is fungast gnats just in an earlier stge? Caus i did catch about 1000 adults last week. Ive been uskng a water peroxide mix cuz i read it will kill grubs on contqct and evetualy give more oxygen to the plant. Any suggestions?

Actualy would spider mites enjoy very organic rich soil? I didnt think they would
. I remember on my last plant i had them and input bloodmeal n the soil n they all died. Ive had bloomeal in this soil n they havent died so most likely its not spidrr mites i soppose

You probably have fungus gnats larvae and everyone likes organic soil...
easy to get rid of, put a slice of potato in there and it will attract the larvas and then throw it away in a few days and probably for any other insect larva. worked for me

Yeah... Cause spidermites cause damage you can see pretty fast. Never heard that about using a tater. I'll try it if I ever get them (gnats). So far.. So good! No mites either.:thumbsup:

Oh foreal? Well i honestly didnt kno pest like any soil i thought it dependex on the bug lol. I thot that the larvae had the black head on them? A bit ago i cut some patatoes up and put them in there, the bugs where attracted to it but when i flipped them over to throw out the wedges i dont believe i saw any black head larvaes. Also theyre not spidr mites forsure then caus there is no real noticable damage, leaves r green n sittn prety nicely

The larvae is feeding on the roots.. It will start showing damage if not taken care of. Eventually you will lose the plant if left.They will fill your room with little black flying bugs..Then starts the cycle again. Older plants have a better chance. Hydro and starts like seedlings and clones could die faster being they have less root structure.
