Yeah fair enough man.
Sad day. His passing feels like the end of an era.
Now we got guys like burner or micro closet pollen chuckers to replace him...... seems fucked to me

It is very sad and it feels like the passing of an era.

i'm sure he would want people to celebrate his life and his views and to carry on the good fight and to get growing if you aren't already.....I smoked a nice haze spliff in his honour.

He lives on in the strains he helped bring to Europe and to smokers everywhere and in the fact in some places it can be smoked and grown without fear of persecution.

Hi there can you let me know how effective this product was for you please. Had a few gnat problems in recent years and the only thing i've found to be effective so far are nematodes.. which are expensive and need keeping in the fridge.
thanks

the best product so far has been the rapeseed , soap , and pyrethrum combination . it just becomes expensive if it is constant .

fabric weed barrier protection over the pots , and once a week , a treatment of the said product and you have zero gnats ....

i use clove and mint oil too as a room deterrent . i also put filters on my intakes , and neem oil smeared over it too

i have not been growing properly as i'm in limbo still regarding my property where i grow at , so i have been slacking and not keeping on top of the issue.

this new product works in the same manner, only it is pre diluted with water , so rather expensive if you follow the directions.

misting neem and soap over the top inch and bottom inch of your soil or media substrate helps also

just make life hard for all stages of the gnats existence . larvae to adult

sticky traps laid across the soil tops too


in 2 days i have nearly killed all stages of gnat using the new addition diluted

violet light to attract and sticky trap the bastards by hand is also satisfying

overall , the best value shelf product to use is this . 5 times cheaper than the equivalent.

Neudorff BugFree Spruzit Bug and Larvae Killer Concentrate, 250ml - Liquid Bug Killer & Larvae Killer, Pyrethrum Insecticide, Insecticidal Concentrate, Pyrethrin–Based Insecticide, Aphid Killer​


ignore the instructions and use diluted to soil soak and to guard. it is for foliar bug killing too . works superb as soil drench

They say there is a new kind of legal ecstasy (MDMA analogue) on the market now, 3,4-EtMC. Legal for now anyway.

i took that much mdma in my youth it rewired my brain where when i take it i make an over production of melatonin and i fall asleep , and it destroyed my serotonin uptake and dopamine levels ....

however , it may be worth trying

Thanks @shiva82 , i'll try some of those things. I got a bigger fan which has helped stop them landing and thinking of getting one to blow over soil surface too. Mosquito dunks seem to do bugger all so i will try that Neudorff product. My grow room is in a garage these days which makes more worry less about burning the house down lol but harder to control the environment etc.

no problem. it does work.i was experimenting at the farm and i was rationing that product , and it works very well . i was adding maybe 10 ml per litre for initial application , and after that literally a tiny drop in your tank or solution , and you will not see them anymore , then just use when needed until harvest . you could keep using it if needed .
