  1. they look just fine. Might be a symptom of the extra water too, might be genetic even. Don't sweat it too much, just keep an eye out for dramatic changes.

  2. Just let the soil dry out a couple inches deep. If she perks up, then it was overwatering which is what it looks like to me. You don't need to wet the whole top surface; just the base. You'll water less focusing on that area.

  12. Don't know how I missed this earlier but thank you. I started them on the tray of perlite, it seems to work a lot better. I'd be just fine if I never saw another gnat...the little bastards, lol

  13. Here's my question for the day: Our lights were off for about 3 hrs mid day while I was out. The lights had already come back on before I returned. My plants had been on a steady routine of 20/4, is that 3ish hours likely to cause problems or was more like very cloudy afternoon?
     
  14. thats ok! i love my sip and so will you. gives you the best growth rates and helps with keeping perfect moisture. just turn them twice a week so the roots will air prune and not go down into the reservoir. i had gnats too but the mulch i have on there keeps them out. a neem cake meal tea will help and a bti like gnatrol. i put down four inches of straw on my big containers and the 3 gallons have about two inches. having the straw on there keeps the top layer of straw dry so gnats are discouraged while the soil stays wet. also, have a fan occilating on your plants keeps flyers out because they can't fight the wind easily and it discourages them. one of the best IPM practices is environmental changes by keeping an environment that discourages them from flourishing.


    your plants look great Mona! i just gave mine a neem kelp tea a while back. heres what i did:


    1/4 cup of neem and kelp meal per gallon of water. bubble it 4 hours or let it sit for a couple days. i bubble mine in my bath tub because sometimes it bubbles over and i can just spray it down. you could even put down a MBG ground into flour as well on the topsoil.


    just apply something like the tea or bti, then add lots of straw super thick. if you feel like that is enough, add more. lol


    my gnats were so bad once that i got them all over my buds. i had my first 100 gallon bed and trying to not overwater a container that size is a challenge and something i had to learn and still am. those sips really did save my ass.

  15. LLB, I failed to turn the Short Rider so you can imagine the roots that are now occupying its' sip tray, lol.
    Aside from that mishap, I had no qualms whatsoever! The gnats were no longer an issue. I wanted to do a dance every time i went into a critter free tent😀. I appreciate all the info you share.
    Btw, I cannot even imagine the gnat infestation in a 100 gal bed 😰😨😡!

  16. Here's a partial update. After 102 days total, I started hacking shorty. Guess what? Everyone was right, after the first 15 min with the very first plant...trimming ceases to be fun! Anyway, I got about half the chop and wet trim done.
    The first two pictures are most of what is drying...ran out of time. The last two are what's left for later.
    Okay:
