very interesting ....I've read and know this already, but it's nice to hear again.... like stink.... i'm having a problem with gnats.. I've never let my medium get this dry during a grow.
so what's the happy medium?? I have a moisture meter, I can see when my moisture levels are dropping. Due to the pests i can't keep it moist constantly, or should i say it would be a swarm by now. .... funny three people here are using the same practice that's frowned upon. I also water as theWOZ was saying... i try and focus on the center of the root system but i do not foliar feed.
fucking gnats ... fucked up my whole routine.

nope i haven't done the sand yet .... you know what??? I haven't done anything besides sticky traps and using the tanglefoot from the sticky traps at the rims of the pots ... i even went as far as to smear that sticky shit on my floor. now i have gnat lined planters. I'm thinking i'll do an organic mix ... it seemed to help the last time. My hydro guy kinda discouraged me out of any solutions. When i asked what he would suggest for gnats he said " well you have a better chance getting rid of mites than you do gnats" ... then went on to try and sell me some gnatrol and foggers .. my space isn't that big and the gnats weren't that bad at the time.
I've had the problem before and simple steps helped it out ....just vacuuming the tent everyday and some kung fu helped with them the last time. I'll get it under control but at this point i would say it's not a mild problem any more with these things ... I'd say moderate. another thing
I've been told gnats just pests more than anything and do not affect much if anything during the grow. I've also read how they fuck up yield and vitality to plants .... I'm not sure. I just know that i'm not really interested in giving my plants a soil drench of bt a month into flower. 3 weeks technically. so sand will be coming ... hot pepper, garlic, and tobacco topsoil spray is also looking to be the route

I have used coffee grinds either fresh or used in my garden several times and it is suppose to deter all bugs. I know its good to use under tomato plants because they like the acidity that it gives off. although im not sure it would be a good idea to use in with your soil/substrate. It might not hurt to try putting some around the floor though to help keep them away from the room. Also a couple people suggested amonia or lemon scented spray works really well and a few other people suggested cinnamon and apple cider vinegar. Heres the link :http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf949883.tip.html. Hope it helps.

Azamax is a great neem oil concentrate which you feed to your plants. From there it protects the soil
as well as be absorbed by the plant and used systemically throughout the plant to protect from pests and
Fungi. I love Azamax and swear by it.

i'm sure there are different opinions ....but don't you think that would change the taste of the final product???? since it has neem in it? I've heard Azamax works great though.

It stays in the plant system for 30 days.. Don't use it within 4 weeks of harvest. I've never had a problem with flavor changing.

OMRI certified Organic... As high quality as it gets.

:-P O'k all my faithful peeps, this is the deal for the next week or so..My landlord is coming to drop off the keys to our new home or (apt) i say new becouse we dicided to take the offer they gave us to not just move out for the rentovation but move out for good to a new location that has already been renovated..I had to take this deal for two reasons one- the new place does not have on sight management a huge plus and there is only 8 units and they are spaced apart more like town houses for more privacy..The last reason is they offered us 1,200.00 u.s hard cash to volunteer to move on short notice to help with moving etc..The place is beautiful and lots more space..So we will have to be out of here by friday so this friday will be my last update for a while until slow ass ATT gets my shit hooked up and rolling at the new spot which is on the 19th i know thats sucks but its the fastest they could do it..But i will never leave you all without something to think about while im not here:clap:.. Pic's taken tonight hope you enjoy and holla back before i get out of here..Peace:leaf:

Hey whats up Ataxia? the BUKU or burmese Kush is from TH Seeds, from all the reports or most they have a pretty good rep and some that have grown this strain before really like it so, you know me i'll try anything once..lol I've seen some online pic's of other grows and the shit looks amazing just like the pictures on attitude..
