Yes! And I do think there's something in the rainwater. Altho' now that I think about it, the rain probably washed fertz. out of the potting soil. Well guess they gotta go in bigger pots or... the dirt! Yay!It makes them even stronger
(my aching back. LOL)

I believe in the rainwater.....I use rainwater from my rain barrels to water all my plants....I checked the Ph periodically after I add the nutes....good stuff.

How do you keep mosquitos from living in it?

I use rainwater simply collected in buckets off the barn roof. Mosquitoes sometimes are in it. If I have old bananas and peels I chop them up and let them “stew” in that water too. I mix my nutes directly into that bucket of rainwater collected, and water accordingly.
How long is a weed? Lol

I would think mosquito bits would work since it’s basically bt.
However I’m not crazyforums they may use another method if it’s a problem for them

A few drops of bleach on surface...I have a faucet a foot from bottom....I fill water buckets using that faucet. I also drop a pump in it to pump out the water when I drain and refill my ebb and flow resevoir. So you may ask....what do I do if it dont rain for awhile.....I will fill the barrel up with tap water and let it sit for at least 24 hours...I do test the ph

Thanks! I HATE mosquitos and will use any and all strategies to keep them away. I was looking at our garage yesterday, and noticed the downspout is right next to where I plan to grow my Autos. Think I'll look into it.

Okay, I'm officially outdoors, well, with some... 4. Afghan, Hindu Kush, Kalini Asia, and Sticky Beast from Zamnesia.
I know, more soon. Just wanted to start getting them out of those little pots. I'm sure those things are squeezing their little toes, ouch. LOL

I’m not far behind you. Probably get some in the ground after the weekend. Looking ahead at the forecast I see a lot of rain expected in my area. So possibly Monday?…

Which is why I'm trying to get them outside. I put my zinnia transplants in and it rained the next day. They look so happy I can't wait to see what the weed will do.
I need to get back out there. (had to take a lunch break)

These were given to us. We had to scrub them out and pressure wash the inside. Had mulch dye in five and wax in two of them.
Made goat huts out of a couple of the dye ones that we couldn’t get as clean. They didn’t care.

Checked the weather and it's not supposed to rain until tomorrow afternoon, so I put 4 more in the ground.
So far, Afghani, Kalini Asia, Hindu Kush, Sticky Beast, Northern Lightning, Death's Breath, Finnish Blueberry Pie, Pbb x Okie (clone). Only 4 more slots to fill, and I have so many choices!
Of course I haven't planned out the extras going into the dirt pile.

Well, I did report the sucker. LOL
On to more pleasant subjects, @ChairmanFester, the dutch babies love the great outdoors. 8 surviving out of 10 seeds is pretty good in my book.
