If after I chop the plant I top dress with leaves and mpb and water how do I keep from getting gnats or rot? Sent from my SM-G930V using Grasscity Forum mobile app
if you dont have gnats there is no reason top dressing leaves and mbp should bring them about. still, if you ever do have gnats they are easily controlled with a thick dry mulch layer (leaves, straw, bark...). a fan blowing air across the soil also helps and makes it hard for them to look for a place to land. yellow sticky traps can also help but usually the mulch and wind should do the trick. as for rot, the only rot you should be concerned about is root rot from over watering. dont over water and you shouldnt need to worry.
Ok I'm going to thicken up my mulch layer I used cocoa shell for my mulch it smells amazing I have lots of wind in the room already Sent from my SM-G930V using Grasscity Forum mobile app
