Thanks for the kind words! I hate those pesky fungus gnats. Your plants are looking good, wouldn’t be surprised if the weaker looking ones have a little root damage form larvae, but they will heal up quick if remedied.
& I agree 100% on getting others to grow their own, there is no substitute for putting the work in with your own hands & having the patience to wait to smoke it. That is the number #1 reason I post!
Pretty much everything I do was learned from people sharing information, glad to pay it forward
IM not sure about those weak ones. They just took longer to root and where already shitty looking. but maybe larve got in rapid rooter? Ill probably just throw them away anyways. All i need is one of those. Thanks for the resteem, but yeah a shout out to your grow was long over due.
I have a fungus gnat problem as well as ants feeding off the honeydew. I bought food grade Diatomaceous Earth off eBay, apparently it kills the insects by piercing their exoskeleton because the powder is like rolling around on glass shards to the gnats. It does allow them to land and lay eggs into the soil. It will also kill the larva if they go up to the surface.
They are persistent little buggers, keep your eyes 👀 I was lazy about dealing with them & now their overstaying a little bit, but my vegging plants are coming back
I just read that i can water with 3% hydrogen peroxide 👍 and I’ll keep the vinegar in the room too.
Gonna set up a vinegar Pyrex & see how many I get
One thing I’m going to do is look in soil after i harvest the tahoo to look for larve. I don’t have gnats in flower room but it’s just possible i never notice since i have more fans on.
For me, if the gnat numbers are looking strong still after this weekend I will buy nematodes for my bed that has no nematodes. They do the trick if you’re reusing dirt. Too expensive to buy every round unless you have a cheap place close by
It’s great because i don’t have anybody in person to talk about this stuff. I’m in my own little world with my family and work. Lol
I never get tired of talking about growing weed or economics, preferably while high 🤠
I usually do my best talking while I’m buzzed on the coffee 😂😂
Man I’m really learning a lot on steem. This is what’s it’s all about!
