Fish tank water really helps jump start it to.:DAnd if you really want to step up your game when your seasoning your biology outdoors with the strainer bags use a white clover or any decent cover crop and really keep that soil biology humming.
Made ur homemade cleaner today with (lemon mrs meyers and eucalyptus oil)Keeping your environment clean is also important. I put down horticultural plastic and I am now making sure not to leave bags open and try to clean organic matter off the floor immediately. I make up a solution of 1 TBS Mrs Meyers lavender hand soap 2 TBS 91% iso alcohol and a few drops of lemongrass oil and spray the plastic and wipe it down every other day. If it gets on your plants no big deal. It DIY green cleaner then some
Me too lol...I personally DONT like the ladybugs because they poop all over the plant...
Won't mosquito dunks harm the beneficial also?Crush mosquito dunks in a couple plastic bags to turn it to powder. Spread couple table spoons on top of your soil and hang a couple yellow sticky traps if you already have gnats. No need for traps if you don't.
Reapply at transplants. That's it. No gnats or other flyers.
On paper I'm not sure...but I've done what he is saying with no ill effects observed.Won't mosquito dunks harm the beneficial also?
Are you saying the mosquito dunks won't kill beneficial insects?Not at all. Their a beneficial. You could also layer Ditamacious but sometimes watering just mixes it in. I've ran dunks for more years than I can remember.

Nemotodes??No, it won't. Mosquito dunks are bti (bacillus thuringiensis israelensis), which is larvicide and it only affects larvae. One howhever still needs yellow stickies to catch the adults so they don't continue to lay eggs.
Nemotodes??
I meant will the dunks affect them? Sorry if that's redundant.What's with them? If you get the right type, they'll help eradicating FG.
