Hello all, I have an infestation of Symphilids and was hoping if someone could tell me what would be better to get rid of them Neem Oil or Fungus Gnat Off. Any help would be much appreciated.

I've just found a double sided tape thats got a heat resistance of up to 93oC, It's the 3M 9088FL High Performance Double Coated Tape, Not a bad price at £10 for 19mm x 50m. Going get some and put the mylar up with that, Just like to say thanks for all your help and info, Cheers

I like the sound of using velcro, A bit unsure about staples as I don't know if they would hold that well in the walls, and I'll worry about the mylar coming off and hitting the light. Thanks alot for your replys, Cheers

Could someone please tell me the best way to attach mylar to the inside of my grow cuboard which has been plastered and painted, I'm unsure about double sided tape as all the ones I can find have a heat resistant of up to only 70F, I like the sound of the spray adhesive's but am a bit wary on...

Hello me again, I think what i'm going to do is put them upto 20 hours of light & 4 hours off & hope this will stop the flowering and start them growing a bit more.

Hello All, I'm growing 2 Afghan Kush which are about 6 weeks old and on 18 hours of light a day. When i checked on them this morning it looks like they have started to flower ! How do i stop this ? should i put them on 20 hours ? I want them to grow a bit bigger b4 i put them into flower.

Thanks for the reply and information norcalkronic, I will get a different brand soil PH meter before trying the aluminum sulfate & sulpher. Thanks again & Happy Growing !

Using a little Vinegar to lower the PH of the water has worked for me. I'm sure you have some of that around the house.

Hello Fellow Growers, This is my second grow, and i'm still having trouble lowering the PH of my soil, which I am sure is what is causing the yellowing of the oldest leaves then them dropping off. On my first grow I asked for advice on which soil to use for growing and was told John Innes No 1...

Hello, don't worry found a thread by Amber999 called Bugs that don't die. Think I've definately got the same bugs as what they've got and they don't seem to do any harm. Found a few good tips, so all is well. Thanxs for replying kuhdoffi.

There too small to get a picture of and I don't think they are white fly. Could they be knats ?

Can anybody help me, As I went to water my plants today I saw these very small white bugs crawling in and out of the compost ! The big ones are about 1mm long and move very quick and I'm sure they jump ! My plants look healthy and these little bugs don't seem to be on any of the plants, What are...
