I have to leave them in the tub for a couple hours to let the water go thru. This watering I went a week a 1 day and was with regular ro water. I used bloom nutes last watering and will use them again next week. I am using fox farm big bloom and tiger bloom. This might be my last time using soil! I dont think I can put up with the mess or the pests again.
The humidity goes through the roof til a few days after watering and I worry about mildew and shit like that! I think I need to provide better airflow. I had to tie my up at the top corner of the tent instead of at the bottom sucking clean air in and I think that is my problem. I will purchase 1 or 2 more fans to improve airflow a bit. What do you guys think. These flies arw really pissing me off’ they are everywhere. Im going to hit up the nursery manana to get some spray or something. I am still using diomacious earth also
Sorry for all your problems. I already gave you my ideas on the gnats. (d.e., neem) The girls look nice and healthy so you must be handling the drawbacks like a champ. Good luck!
Good job tying them
Bugs are easy to deal with. The worst thing you can do is give up. Neem seed meal. Neem oil. Hemp oil. Jojoba oil. All amazing for IPM and irradication. Check out the gnat thread. I have gnats in my soil. But they are called food over hereXD food for my h.miles and plantsXD
Hey Danks, those are some gorgeous plants for such a young age. You definitely know what time it is. Happy 420 day.
Has anyone mentioned Gnatrol (Bti) for the gnats? It’s the only organic solution that actually works. I’d probably give up without it too. Ebay is the cheapest place to find it.
Use 2-3 teaspoons per gallon for a couple waterings and then 1-2 per gallon for 2 more weeks and they’re completely gone.
How about investing in some trays for under your containers. Then you won’t have to move them around. If you overwater, remove the extra from the trays with a sponge or turkey baster.
The plants looks super healthy to me. They look a tad small for the container size, you could veg longer next time and top them early to create more of a bush.
A.C. units are a true savior if you cannot vent your lights heat out sufficiently If you’ve got a central air system what I did was purchase a piece that fit over my A.C. vent nearest my tent then funnel it into whatever size ducting that the tent provides preferably a lower one then place a circulating fan next to the incoming cool air in the tent it works if you can afford the energy cost. A small portable unit is a good investment.
