i started stem strength yesterday. all bucket with 2gallon pot in them. are proped up with ping pong balls, away from the light. i spin plant pot a couple times a day, once plant is leaning to the light again. it gets good lighting to the inside of the plant. i will be adding some 18" and 24" floros when plants get bigger for side lighting.

the yellow cards are fly tape from hydro shop, i tare them in half and spread them out. i seen flys in my ma's plants. so i bought neem oil and fly tape. i know its a little over kill but thats kinda how i am when it comes to bugs in my garden. the only good bug is a dead bug. o and i cant wait for the rest of your smoke report ;) looks good from all the pix i seen. from the sounds of it, its alot better then the NL going around here. the NL around here sucks, i think they did a shity job growing it more then anything else. looks good, smells ok, high sucks.

ya i know. kinda pissed their are any kinds of bugs in my house. perventing them im very big on. most of the flys are in the kitchen not my room. and their not from my house plants either. if they are gnats i will take care of them also, hopefuly before flowering. but if not i'll deal with them between grows. i think im going to grow 4 white widow and 4 skunk haze next for a seeds production. closet split in 2 once in flowering. well thats what im thinking as of now.

lol alot of time, neem oil, and fly tape. gnats are the hardest thing to get rid of. i just looked up gnats in ed rosenthals new book. says let soil dry a little more or add a cover to your soil, like plastic, cloth, sand, cardboard. fungus gnats lay larva on the top inch of your soil. and neem oil renders the fly unable to breed also if my memory is correct. and make sure there is NO kind of food out in the open for the gnats to use for food.

i havent seen shit for gnats today sense i sprayed them yesterday with neem oil twice. didnt hurt my cannabis plants at all. but it did kill the lower leafs on my mimosa pudica's tho. and there is a bunch of gnats on the fly tape also. if you dont have any neem oil, i would buy some asap it works like a charm. atleast for me and other people ive talked with that use it.

i only recommend neem for plants, i have never had it kill a thing xept pest. but the gnas always come bak. i even use it as a soil drench. they come bak after a few weeks always. so i gave up on em. like i said theyre more of a nuisance than anything.

i used to be a outdoor grower. this is the first indoor grow in about 3 year. never had a real problem with then till now, and they didnt come from my plants which makes it even worse. i hope they go away, they piss me off.
