Hello. Please help me to know what problem you have my plants. They are in bloom. When I water, a cloud of flies comes out of the substrate. I have watered with neem powder and put diatomaceous earth. They are outdoors with temperatures of 40 ° C.
English is not my language. I use a translator.
Thanks for the helps.

Sounds like fungus gnats. The flying critters are harmless. It’s their larvae around the roots that’s your concern. Get yellow sticky traps and hang near the plants and buy diatomaceous earth and sprinkle liberally onto the soil. You’re likely overwatering. Let the medium dry a bit between feedings or waterings.

Thanks for your reply. I thought that was the problem.
The sickest plant is the one that I applied a layer of humus that possibly already had the larvae.
One question: can the larvae stay alive with completely dry humus?
Thanks my friend!
