# I have a trandescantia fluminensis albovittata and the soil is always…

I have a trandescantia fluminensis albovittata and the soil is always either moldy or has gnats. I have tried repotting and changing the soil but they keep coming back. I have also moved it to different lighting and changed the pot. I don’t have a picture because I already removed the mold again. What should I do? Reference of plant attached.

About the mold, do you have good air circulation in the surrounding area?

Sounds like you might be overwatering if circulation isn't the issue.

What type of soil are you using? If it's innoculated you'll just keep getting white, and its supposed to happen.But increasing circulation in the area will help. You can also spray with 1:3 peroxide, or sprinkle with ceylon cinnamon. You can also sanitize the soil first to kill any spores or eggs/larvae. If you have adult gnats in the house, you're going to keep getting gnats unless you start using a BTi or some kind of pesticide to stop the cycle in all your plant pots.
