Hello everyone,
Kind of new here, have been reading a lot. I'm wondering if I could get some help here...
I ran into a problem with fungus gnats, used a few different things and then did a transplant, all seemed well..
now I'm starting to see them again... I believe that I bought them with the soil, my luck...lol I was thinking of
taking off the top inch of soil and replacing it with sand, and maybe spraying the soil before the sand and then
spray the sand too... Right now all I can find is Ortho fruit tree concentrate 70% neem oil, I was thinking maybe 2 teaspoons to a gallon of water, then just spray it on the dirt, then the sand... Does that sound okay, or a bad idea?
Also I was wondering if baking the soil before using would be a good idea. I went to buy more soil and it looks like a gnat breeding ground in their soil section...
Plants seem a little stressed, from everything, a little slow growing right now, maybe a few deficiencies, might be from all that they have gone through.... I will try to post some pics tonight when I get home...
Thank you for your time, and any possible help...
