For those of you that don't use bags, how do you sterilize your pots between grows? I had a very small population of fungus gnats last go around and I'd prefer to eliminate the possibility of them coming back.
If you add some neem seed meal and crab shell meal to your soil before sticking a clone in there it will make your plants/soil very inhospitable to bugs of all varieties. At least that's been my experience.

You could also inoculate your soil with BTI bits. These microorganisms eat gnat larvae.

fuckin gnats and there little ugly ass babies suck, ive have had them for a year maybe longer so hard to completely kill them all, my gnat population is down to a few here and there but I tried it all mosiqito bits and dunks, gnatrol, de, gonats for hydro system, yellow sticky traps and I have azomax but haven't tried it yet, these little mofo breed so damn fast the only thing that does anything to me is the top dress of de, I can actually see them hurting from it but as soon as u water it kinda doesn't work that good so u have to add more and more I put it all over to on the floors and around the pots and I take up my sticky traps and try to smash any gnats on the soil, I probably killed 5000 gnats by hand this way hahaha if u don't stay on them they will get out of control

Haha I always joke about getting really high and grabbing gnats out of the air with my hands Mr Miyagi and chopstick style. Luckily I never experienced any kind of population explosion as my hand method paired with sticky traps seemed to do the job.

I do have a bottle of Azamax but I haven't even cracked it open.

They keep coming back :( I use captain jacks organicide and then turned it up with some aza max but they are persistant fuckers. They will be gone for weeks and then all the sudden I see a few and I go to town again.

Spinosad is shockingly effective stuff too. I had some issues with gnats and I don't anymore after a couple applications.

Here's the SSDD in all of her glory. Just a couple weeks behind the ToL.

She is sort of hard to describe but ill try.. I get a very smooth, deep, and rich, almost buttery forward note followed by slight earthen hints of sweet almost like a roasted berry with a bright and strong fuel backend.

Excited as Fuck!

So I haven't even been using teas, just water for a few months now. I just top dress with handfuls of EWC including live worms. Lil babies fall out of the bottom of my 5 gal smarties every couple days.. I'm thinkin this is where it's at for me.

I've been rolling the same way Al. Very rarely am I using teas anymore. Just plain water with a top dress of EWC and a little fresh soil a few weeks in to flower. Ladies are lovin it.... as yours look to be too.

Sounds like you may have the buttered muffins pheno that everyone loves. I def have to get this one in my vault. That new Bubbashine cross that will be giving out as freebies will be fire too. Getting prepared to make that order for some new releases. The Chocolate Trip f2 is what I want the most
