Hey all. I am in the middle of my first grow. I have a few autos inside and a few outside trying to get a feel for what I want to continue doing after this first one.
With that said, I have been fighting fungus gnats, but I have managed to significantly reduce the numbers, so Im less worried about them at the moment. But really, it seems there is always 'something' on my plants outside. I come out to half eaten leaves, tiny holes in leaves, etc. But there doesnt appear to be a huge number of any critter when I shake the plants or whatever.
How seriously do I need to take these pests if there is no infestation? Im curious if I even need to worry so much about them if there doesnt seem to be any major impact on the plants.
Anyone have any thoughts on this? Am I being paranoid?
