if you go on youtube and look up subcool he has about 3 videos about getting rid of gnats. yes they are coming from your soil my guess is you are using roots or FF cause those two have put out posts on their respective sites explaining the problem. There is a soil drench that Sub uses and it seems to work great. get some sticky traps to help with the ones that are flying around and put them at the base of your plant. heres the link if you dont have it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KE-d3YhjMuM

I have a small problem with tiny small flys i think there coming out of the soil? then they fly around and get stuck in the buds trichomes and its fucking annoying i dont want to be smoking tiny flys when i harvest this bud. is it true that by applying sand on top of the pots will stop them from coming out or the adults laing eggs? i need them gone ones and for all, i have sticky strips all over and i cach alot but the keep coming back!

Damn 250 club it's been a long minute lol.

Nice to see this thread is still alive, even if none of the oldies/originals are poppin' up anymore, most have moved to greener pastures you could say..

Seems like all of you newer members of the club having been holding this thread down, the way the thread should be.

Good job guys and gals, keep it up.

Wretched would probably be real happy about how this thread has lasted =].

Yeah you came in before Mind chopped his WB grow down I believe, I think I remember helping you out with flushing advice.

Then again I could be wrong but I think I'm pretty sure I'm right, hell I don't know there's been a lot of toking since then lol.

I do remember your name and the PPP grow though for sure.

Anyhow, hope everything's been smooth sailing since then and hope your grows have flourished well.

Thanks Doob, yes you did give me some flushing advice, may be doing a flush again real soon because this Blue Mystic (recommended by Nirvana for it's low odor) is really starting to reek. Have ventilation, carbon scrubber and deodorizing going and it still seems to come through. Here they are at 6 1/2 weeks.

Looking nice!! You have definitely kept up on your game, great job Grazz.

Hmm well if it's an issue with the odor still coming through (I'd imagine it would be an issue lol).

There are a couple of things that can be causing it, like the fan being at too high of CFM's for the carbon filter, ducting past the carbon filter having holes in it, etc.

How is your ventilation set up?

Passive intake and pulling through the CB versus pushing through?

CFM's you're using for your space and how big is the space?

Just trying to help out, as always lol.

Well.. I have 2 DIY's with new carbon and I have gone back and forth on pushing and pulling, I should have something new early next week. I ordered an [FONT=&quot]Odor-Sok Air Filter 6 inch X 16 inch 380 cfm and hope it will do the trick. I also have a bucket of soil-moist with Odo-Ban trying to kill the smell outside of my room.
The room is part of my basement work area, it was a paint booth area for the previous owner and I'd guess it's 5x5 but it's partially open to the work room. There is a largish exhaust fan in the booth area that I run on a timer for 30 mins every other hour (day time) and I have that drawing through a bucket of poly fiber and carbon (just did this today). I was [/FONT][FONT=&quot]outside[/FONT][FONT=&quot] for a while and it seems much better but still get an occasional whiff..

Oh yeah that 380 should be good for how big your grow area is. I do pull rather than push personally but to each is their own, if it isn't broken don't fix it lol. That's pretty bad ass that you pretty much had a grow room included with the house. Looks like you've got your setup pretty locked down, it's really great to see peeps still doing great if not better =].

I'm getting ready to fire up again, just got the climate control/ventilation/filtering done and stable yesterday. Still waiting on my soil, should be germinating tomorrow or the day after I'm thinking. White Berry and Kush Berry under a 250 MH for veg and 250 HPS for bloom. I may start a journal here, still debating on it though.

Arrgh Seed pods!!

Well I had to start flushing today, looks like my Blue Mystic grow will end at just over 7 weeks flowering. I took a close look because the bud growth was looking strange, I pulled a chunk from one of the buds and did a dissection.. damn seeds!! Immature seeds but definitely seeds going on. I flushed with Flora Kleen and will run that in the rez until later this week and just hope that I didn't notice too late. One of the three plants must have hermied and since the foliage is so thick I never noticed any pollen sacks. I think I will just germ one seed next time and let it stretch a little more during veg so that I can see whats going on.
