Just had a fungus gnat issue. Diatomaceous earth sprinkled on the soil killed 90% of them. Good luck!

Not sure how this will help you know. But I’m using a supersoil, and put a 1/4” layer of sand on the bottom. No gnat issue so far

Throw in a Hot Shot pest strip overnight and wake up to dead gnats. 🤘😤

hi, i use to leave 1 inch perlite layer on the top of the soil. this will prevent new gnats to get out and go to reproduce. you can also put a potato slice in each pot and change it every 2.3 days. gnats will go to reproduce in it cheers

How are my plants looking? The photo with the biggest leaves is day 7. Am I under-watering or over watering? Should I be adding nutes soon? Is this comparable growth to other successful NLA grows?

Alright I am not sure what to do. The breeder suggests 60 days in flower and she is ready for harvest. But because of the thrips infestation I had, 1 girl seems to be stunted. Should I just wait longer than 60 days and hopefully they recover and fully mature?

So, many questions here. Today (07/05) the smell started, I don't know if it's the flowering phase starting, can you tell by the last photos? What about her height? Isn't it too small, even for an auto plant? Why is it? Can I do something to improve yields? No LST so far...
