    How long is it?
    Wild guess... Black Winged Fungus Gnat. They like wet greenhouse soils.

    It’s tiny maybe a mum at best had to zoom right in hard to get pics of the bugs! I grow in coco can I still get Gnats?

    If so what is best way to get rid? I have some bug clear and will soak the plants tomorrow and daily until buds appear

    I've seen BW Fungus Gnats before but never had a problem. As with any beasties crawling or flying around you will need to find a way to control an infestation.

    Yeah all sprayed with Bug clear and added a peroxide/water mix to the soil meant to be harmeless plants but kills gnats on contact so see if it works

    Cover the top of your pot to stop them getting into the coco.
    Some Sharp sand if possible.
    It cuts their legs an wings so they don't bother trying to get back into the root ball.
