I swear now most grow shops and the trucks that ship in pallets is infested with em, they probably fly out of the organic soil bags nearby and crawl into the little holes in the packaging of every other medium around including bricks. but then again who knows maybe the main suppliers of soil\coco let the gnats swarm and have a contract with the pesticide manufacturers so they all stay in business!
It all usually ends up stored in the same dirty warehouses/hydro shops, sometimes more than a year after delivery until someone buys it too, and could have been exposed anytime since it was made...
They need to vacuum seal coco bricks if they are gonna be shipped to a warehouse or store.. If they really do have eggs in it when it gets compressed that's crazy.
I just today finally seen flyers crawling/jumping out of my coco pots, I knew better than to bring that shit into my nothin' but 3.75 net pots with a handful of hydroton per plant (even huge plants) bare root R/DWC only garden that hasn't had any gnats ever until I expanded that brick just over a month ago.
Maybe just a coincidence but I didn't even see them though until I added floralicious+ so can't blame really botanicare, .. Either way they seem to be loving it all the sudden. I just sprayed green cleaner on all the plants and didn't see a single one not even 2 days ago, even misted the top of the pots as I rotated it and banged it around.. didn't see a single one..crazy!
