Morning all.
Damn Giggy that Suckes. I've been fighting Fungus Gnats. I've slowed them down but can't seem to win.

Keep up the good fight.

mine are outdoors, but if your indoors i like the yellow sticky fly strips, they work great. also if you pour some play sand about 1/4" deep on top of your soil it helps kill the larva.

Another way is to water from the bottom only. This will leave the top 2" or so of your soil dry, which in turn stops the gnats. This is my usual way.

Thanks guys.
I run dip to waste in rock wool. But I could try eb and flo.
Thats a hell of an idea yooper. I likey I'll give this some thought.
I really have neglected my grow diary. I think I'll get my ass back there and log all that I've done about these gnats.

wake and bake folks and happy sunday to all. yoop my great grand mother watered from the bottom. i'm just lazy and water from the top most of the time. when they are outdoors i just let it run through and never use a catch pan. indoors is a different story.

My "wake and bake" consisted of coffee and a vaped bowl of Ghost Train Haze. Great way to start the day. Good morning to all, peace and great growin` is the order of the day.

just went out and checked my last blue dream and it didn't make it. these seeds must have been older then i thought. two out of four where sickly looking and the bugs liked the other two. i tried to pop a cross of blue moon shine x buddhas sister it cracked and started a tap root then quit. i threw 5 more white widow (old) and 6 white elephant to germ yesterday but no signs of life yet. so here's hoping.

i got some more beans from a bank that is now gone but heard tells of herms and another buddy that grew them out with no problems, so not sure i want to mess with them or not. i want to save my fems for my indoor grows but i did pop a purple pine berry fem and it is doing great. the ghost train haze are starting to take off now so i'm looking forward to a good breeding season.

Kinda disconcerted... Used my bubble hash buckets with all my shake, after everything dried I put it in my press and wanted to add a drop of ISO to keep it all together, well one drop became three.... Anyway, pressed it.. Then it was all stuck inside the press, hard as a rock...

It just didn't go as planned... Oh well! ;-)

I`m sure you did not let it go to waste. Lesson learned, one drop at a time.
