ive had nats in coco before, but never in call balls. So i have some spinosad, but never used it before, theres no pics as its to depressing to show , So imagine two net pots with a colony of nats growing on the root ball and crawling up the main stem, :weed:

First i just tried a white oil spray, it slowed them own a bit but the next day more, nats just grew out of the medium, its strawberry eclair week 7 i want to save her
should i try to dunk the root balls in spinosad solution, or spray it on, not sure, whats the go, do i need gloves or mask for it or its cool to touch it accidentally

1 oz Monterey Spinosad per 1 gallon water (I add it to my nutrient) and water with that every third day. They should be gone with that root drench pretty quickly if the Spinosad will take them out.

If they aren't affected by Spinosad I move up to Permethrin https://diypestcontrol.com/best-sellers-google-feed/permethrin-sfr-insecticide-qt

I don't spray anything on a flowering plant, I just use root drenches, good luck with this.

Is 6 days between foliar and 14 days not the recommended rates?

Permethryn or pymethryn?

Pics would help. I'm kinda confused how you're growing and have never hear of call balls. Microbe Lift BMC is good shit for fungus gnats, but I don't know what you're looking for. And you're sure they're fungus gnats and not root aphids or something right?

Padawans right about the bmc microbe lift I've used a bunch of times and it always works. 2-3 drops to a gallon of water.

Full metal jacket? The movie. That's what that gif was from. That's Animal saying 'better you then me'. The quote I reference is from that movie. Nothing do do with your balls.
