I'm still killing gnats with BTI. Works great, cheap as chips and doesn't upset the plants one bit.

Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.

I've found what I was looking for GF... @Greenfingers I couldn't remember what it was called but I found it in the shed yesterday.

https://www.garden-innovations.co.uk/smart-valve.html

I used one of these clever little things when away a lot.

Dumped the pots in the conservatory in a huge tray on top of some capillary matting and that thing in the corner attached to my old autopot res.

PLants were alive and upright whjen I got back after a week.
They look good and cheap as chips mate, cheers

Nice one GF :) I do try to log in once ina while. Been so busy recently I don't have time to think.

If you google Tanlin that's the stuff they sell in the growshop. You can also get the granuals on Amazon and they work out much cheaper. If you search amazon for Plant GP Fungus Gnat Killer they should be first.

Takes a few days work. You'll notice less and less buzzing about and they should mostly be gone in a week. The smell of Neem turns my stomach :)

I've ordered some u.v tubes from Migro 8-) I was gonna buy some anyway, but got them a little bit sooner than planned due to the infestation. The flies are still around so let's see if the u.v helps eradicate them!

Probably just make them feel like they're on holiday and give them a good suntan! :rolf: :rolf:
