Good help thank you. Fly paper seems to be working pretty well......today i gave em all a bottom up haircut so the fans hit the top of the pots with a nice breeze. Guilty as charged re: over watering! here's a couple pics from today I hadda germinate ONE White Widow so she's a bit dwarfed by the rest of them.......Gnats are usually caused by too wet soil Yellow traps at the grow shop help , But Capulators bennies sold on here got rid of mine use in the soil. they run around on top then get big enough to fly so the sticky traps help . anytime u over water they come back I have been out of caps bennies and they are returning so that shows it works.Hope this helped:)
Thanks cat. So far the only think I have given the kids foliar wise is water alone. I give em a good douche about an hour before I turn on the lites. I have been reading up and taking a lotta notes on foliar applications of just about everything from soup to nuts. They love my chicken soup fyi! :confused: Thanks again! I am now focused on pH and have tested my run off with the BlueLab and have a range of 5.8 to 6.3. I have this soil "probe" that tells me the soil is 7.0 but it's a P.O.S. I think. My resevoir water is 5.8 buffered with aquarium water buffer. I have removed a few fans that were kinda dark and crispy in the middle.......another mystery and just in one pot. I am seeing the wisdom of growing ONE STRAIN and that'll be my strategy after I survive (IF I survive) this bag seed test kitchen run!!Meduse is right about Caps bennies, they are great, but it does not get rid of adult fungus gnats only larvae. you could just let your soil dry out a little a more between waterings along with sticky traps to get rid of them.
speaking of Caps bennies, i highly suggest to pick them up when you can. they work wonders on a plant just in general (preventive, control and general plant health), you don't have to wait until something negative goes wrong in your grow area to use them.
plants looks good and hope the best on the rest of the grow.
also forgot to mention, there is no such thing as overwatering, only water logging. i had the same issue and it came from pots not properly draining, so what i do now is get a bucket after the watering and leave the pots on a tilt to drain the excess water from of the pots. hope that helps.
Call it beginners luck. I dont really do much to them, a little food a little water LOTS a light, mixed 2 HPS 400s, two 250 MH and a couple VHO actinic blue tubes (Hamilton Electronics Aquarium hood) from my old reef aquarium and I stare at them a lot. Not sure why I do that but I open the door and just stare at them blowing in the breezeo_O ........oh and I play them opera (Andrea Bocelli mostly) and Gregorain Chant!!hey those are looking real good for some bag seeds.
I'm glad to hear this. I was thinking maybe I was losing it or something. Thanks for the frankness, Haggard!Man I stared at mine so much that the plans for my old grow room I compensated for space to put a seat its almost hypnotic I can get lost in my thoughts and ideas in my grow room then before you know it that 2 hour movie I got up from during commercials to pre is over and I completely missed it haha I think the growing aspect of marijuana is just as relaxing as the smoking part in my case.
