Natural insect repellant
Sabre17started grow question 4 years ago
More of a comment then a question. I’ve had a lot a luck using cedar sawdust as mulch for plants. I grow a lot of veg and other Plants and it works really well to repel insects. All natural and smells great in the Garden.

Fresh sawdust consumes nitrogen. It should be left to cure, outdoors for at least a year, you can accelerate the process with moisture and some fertilizer with a lot of nitrogen to burn the carbon, close and wait at least 2 months.

Be careful, It can deplete the soil of nitrogen,
It can discourage beneficial bugs from residing in your garden,
It can make the soil more acidic

Pest attack. What can I use to eradicate?3 weeks of flowering, and the pests are still here. Can I play Beauveria Bassiana? Or just neem oil?
- The temperatures were very high here, exceeding 30°C, this week it will decrease.
- I have other plants to harvest and I'm going to take advantage and clean the grow.

What are they? Pinhead size, many, soiltopWhole bunch of these guys living on my soil (BuildaSoil 3.0, second run - re-amended).
They aren't messing with the stalk or plants, can't see the roots obviously though.
I hope and assume some kind of predator mite but there are a metric buttload of these little bastards.

Growth is twisted. Is it because of Fungus gnats ?I have fungus gnats (black flies) for less than a week. Temp 29°c, water Ph was at 7 (now 6.5). I didn't think there were so many flies but look at those twisted leaves on 2 plants ! I've put some Diatomaceous Earth yesterday.
