I was doing everything wrong last week... (this is my first grow) in a concern of noise i had only used an outtake fan and passive intake. as temperatures went up I used an AC pointed directly at the plants which was a horrible idea as temperatures dramatically fluctuated and as so growth was pretty much halted. Now that I've fixed ventilation (active intake coming from outside fresh air, outtake directly outdoors) temperatures are still high since it's summer (around 28c at the canopy) but growth exploded again. Did a bit of defoliation on both and tried LST for the first time... Ok i've taken a good look at the plants and the gnats are back.. i thought i got rid of them but no! pretty sure thats the root issue im having. I think i now known when to water or not and with the neem oil spray and sticky traps i've gotten rid of the fungus gnats. They're now both looking great and healthy. I keep updating the LST every day to tie down the new growth

I've been watering my plants as long as i get a bit of runoff systematically. Is that a good thing to do every watering or should i just do that once in a while? the plants are in 5.7L pots and i've been watering about 1.5L each time which seems to saturate the soil & have runoff

that is a lot of water, i give that amount to 20 liter pots .. you have gnats because your soil is too wet, i had the same prob in my first grow .. it took more then 2 months to get rid of them .. also made neem spray and all but there is only one solution = don't give them wet soil to breed in .. when you watered your plants pick up the pot to feel how much it weighs so you can learn when to water, you should water when you feel that the pot is light, try to water every 2 days in stead, in the meantime you need to buy a lot of yellow sticky traps ;) later on you can cover your soil with clay balls or plastic or fly traps so you give them less of a chance to get to your soil.. at one moment i had like 15 sticky traps all over.. you gotta catch em all ! ;) good luck have fun

As long as letting the pots dry out a bit then how you're watering is fine.

I've seen two ways of using neem oil to get rid of gnats, foliar spray and soil drenching. I've done the foliar spray but was hesitant to drench the roots in neem oil.. I guess by only doing the foliar spray the larva are still eating the roots.. I just wanna make sure thanks ๐Ÿ™

Best to let soil dry out good between waterings to control the gnats, sticky strips and vacuum to suck up the majority of the flying buggers

Hey buddy, put your question out to the community and I'm sure you'll get your answer in no time!! I'm only a beginner myself so I'm not the right person to ask although this problem could easily be over watering or pot size!! She'll definitely benefit from having more roots space now........raise the humidity too 50-60% would be better ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Š
