Yea I'll try the sand thing but they are on my buds, and I water once a week

Gnats don't eat buds. Gnats (larva) eat dead/decomposting organic material (eg. green algae), and require a wet environment.
Like the others said, cover your soil...and try watering from the bottom.
Good luck.

Well, for starters don't water as often, then u can try masquito dunks, or u can buy epic shield leave guard bug spray. im not sure where u live. but some grow shops have it. or gonats wrks pretty good. but the main thing is to stop over watering. and u should see an improvement in a week or so. other than that checkm out bigbuds.com they have answers for all!!!! ur ?s

Also, get a bunch of yellow sticky pads and that will get a lot of adults, u have to put them down at the base of the stalk.

I had them so bad my first grow that they stuck all over my buds too. youll figure it out. no big deal, at least they are not mites.

Let ur plants dry completely out till they even strt wilting. it wont hurt the plant. but it will piss off and kill the nat larvy in top of soil

some ppl put a half inch of perlite on top of the soil. it gets messy but it works
