The microbe lift bmc I just realized watching it it gets chunks that some dont dissolve a large flake. I clean a 1ml seringe the outer side with paper towel but some left behind in tip of seringe. Even if its not that should I wisk it in a bucket with some water before adding to reservoir?

I did drop by drop and watched it disperse to some degree a cloud that some of it sinks some of it floats on surface of water. Just doesnt feel like it gets all the water like youd think. To where each drop of water has thousands of bti surely to kill micro sized larvae.

I add .3ml per 55 gallons its double the amount since I noticed this and dont feel right just adding a few drops that most of it is a flake that falls to bottom and not dissolve. Or the clouds that float and take a while to settle and mix.

Now I add it drop for drop with time in between. Same with the clorox to make sure the concentrations low enough not to kill them.

Im having results like I just read one say today, its working good but only up to 98% of them. The traps get the rest. I open tent and scare them into the fly trap is fun to watch.

I set out a fresh one when I notice higher numbers they must be starving and smell the fresh trap and fly to it but the smell wears quick so only works for a day or two. Thats how I save on traps just use as needed. My cabinet is like a war zone all dead gnats on old traps. H miles bugs deindled in numbers.

I love the H miles bugs they really helped where it was the worst. Id buy them or learn to perpetuate them myself and save money. They hunt the fuckers down.

So I realized even if I under pack the floraflex pot 1 gallon, the surface raises pretty close to the lip compared to now. So the roots are pushing the block of coco up quite literally 2”. It still works I think the much longer dryback vs none is allowing for water to flow through vs puddle up real bad and overfill.

Have to put this here too because I rambled about it here too. The effect of pruning to grow fatter buds that mold and plenty more less dominant growth. Finishes early 9-10wks. This was all I did and did it to a couple new clones ready for it at wk 2-3 somewhere in between is good. This was 2 wks and 2 days in flower.

Shit got a gnat outbreak in one pot. Im starting to see where they must be coming from its obvious how theyre all around one plant of two in the tent. Im reading the bmc stuff can break down as fast as 24hrs and upon search I cant find why, temps? Ec content? Said its not the clorene but idk.

Gonna just start adding daily I got a lot to lose so I aint got a choice. Its safe and a quick search says yes. It clealy works just some out breaks happen.
