I use Microbelift BMC - it's just BTI but better than the damned mosquito dunks - some of that stuff always takes care of them for me.

I've heard a great way of getting rid of a ton of larvae right away is to cut up and skin a few potatoes and drop them ontop of the pots....and for whatever reason gnat larvae is supposed to love that stuff so they cover the potato to eat it and you just toss the potato chunks out - then continue treating soil however (like the BTI).

Also heard diatomaceous earth layer over the top of the pot kills them as they try to wiggle around it or get out to fly once matured.

Funny regarding the predator mites - I noticed one kind of bug I had recently and it scared me half to death seeing a couple crawling on my pots - thinking they could be mites (or even....RA ugh), but upon deeper investigation - they were hypoaspis miles. Boom....I somehow got predators without ever buying them.

Maybe they came in my soil since there's always fungus gnat larvae in bags... but cool surprise.

Yup, diatomaceous earth acts as microscopic razor blades to those fuckers. Used with a combination of a soil drench like azamax and you should be able to smoke them. Only pest problem I had was thrips and it was like 4 years back and wasn't to bad. I toasted them in veg with a few doses of azamax and they were gone.
Bugs are the arch enemy of growers. It's always in the back of our minds. I've seen them really do a number on a few friends grows. Best defense you can have is keeping a clean grow room. Washing floors and tools everyonce in a while. I even wash saucer pans just to make sure.

True that, russet mites are the absolute worst. When I was still living out in California we had to burn all of our mothers and clones and start from scratch, due to those fuckers. I wouldn’t wish those little bastards on my worst enemy. Avid wouldn’t even kill them, and I wouldn’t recommend using avid at all. Still don’t know for sure where they came from but I’m pretty sure they came from clones we had gotten from midnight farms or dark heart. The paranoia of getting clones after that damn near gave us PTSD, to the point where we wouldn’t buy any clones unless they let us look at them thoroughly with a scope.

It took me like 8 months to restart after I got hit with Root Aphids little devils.....my goodness.
I've got a carpeted room I never bothered to strip or cover with panda film x.x figured if I covered it - would just be extra protection for the little fuckers or molds or mildews getting trapped underneath and flourishing...
That's why I typically never ever take cuts in. Don't get them fuckers through seeds...

How do you keep the DE dry? I find DE works well until you water, then it basically congeals into a harmless cement. The only time I've had success with DE is bottom feeding coco. Stratiolaelaps scimitus and sticky traps is my must have for any notill LOS grows.

For drops we've got:
Elite613 - Not sure when
Lucious - More news Monday 18, sub to mailer
Treestars - 'early next week. Just waiting for it to arrive. Inwill make a post and send out a newsletter as well! '

Happy weekend.

Thank you I was just about to ask that
 
By the way definitely something fishy going on with the thug pug auctions on Neptune. If you click the guys auction profile you can see that every other pack he is selling is extremely hyped and has packaging that is getting faked these days... capulator, Seed Junky, aficionado, etc..
IDK its possible its legit but too many signs pointing to a scam

Their website is elite613genetics. They might be Canada only, I ordered some PBB and Garlic 2.0 from them on Wednesday.

When I asked them about the new drop he said "we might not even be getting it, its not looking good". So it might have gotten stopped at customs.

Bro follow your first mind. You're gonna drive yourself crazy paying attention to those seeds.
People are losing their shit about these seeds now, its crazy dude. You got to careful, when there's money to made, especially a decent amount-people are going to try and scam. It was being discussed a few pages back how well this all was timed out. There's definitely people that run banks making a shit ton of money on a last drop that seems to be lasting forever. You think thugpug figured out how to cross these strains with an opium poppy with how nuts things have gotten.
