First time seeing bugs on plant

The picture is kind of blurry, everything is mixed in, and the black spots look like mold, if it’s in flower, 1 of the reasons I slack off watering during the flowering stage, the beginning is the plant’s necessity at that stage, the picture has to be clear, otherwise you won’t get an answer only an opinion, those who are starting use forums as a crutch but learn from the books, not from a forum

What are you referring to bro?

@Tdh3712 what is the picture of the bug in the bottom left picture, what kind of bug is that??

@Jayjay504 This one?

Thats a fungus gnat

@Tdh3712 that’s what I thought I got them little f****** going around. I put a brand new no pest strip in the room this morning and sealed the room off. I wonder if the no pest strips work on fungus gnats

Keep your soil dryer than normal. Fungas Gnats thrive around moist soil.

Sticky traps will catch them as they fly about.

But to kill the larvae.

Are you in flower or veg?

If in veg you can use neem oil solution to kill the larvae in the soil.
If you’re in flower you may need to go a different route.

@Tdh3712 they are beginning flowering now, about a week. Do you know if the no pest strips kill them or not?

You can put traps out but they will only catch the ones flying.

The larve in the soil is your real target. Otherwise they will just keep reproducing.

So keep your soil dryer.

And look for either something you can use during flower to kill them.

diatomaceous earth will help. Also the adults lay eggs in the top inch of soil. Allowing the first inches of soil to dry out will detour the adults from laying eggs. The sticky traps will work for the flyers. Give it a week or two and the numbers will reduce dramatically amd eventually cease. Gotta disrupt the breeding cycle. Capt Jacks dead bug is also safe to use in flower.

For the last 30 years since I started growing indoors but never had these problems but you do, I use everything restricted for indoors only, so maybe you guys are prone to this issue, where in the midwest we don’t
