My pleasure 😊

[@thevahandbook]

I always water my plants that way - helps reduce fungus gnats too. I mix up tap water, a drop of baby bio (if needed) and a little water purifier (the stuff you told us about) pour it into 2 large under-bed clear storage containers (kept in the garage) then stand my plants in them. I then leave them to drain on baking cooling racks over the sink or baking trays. Afterwards, I pour the rest of the water into spray bottles as well as an empty fabric softener bottle (one with a spout) that I use for watering my succulents. Another thing I do is to cut down yoghurt pots to a centimetre or two in height and use them to raise my pots up inside the cover pot. I hate how cover pots are usually far deeper than the plant pot. I like the plant pot to be just under the rim so the base of the plant gets light. The great bonus is that the plant is never sitting in water should excess water run out after leaving it to drain after using the watering method above. I also cut a yellow stick fungus gnat square into a long rectangle and stick it on an ice lolly stick. It's cheaper to buy a pack of large squares and cut them to the size and shape you want depending on the plant. I popped in the local garden centre today to "have a look" (yeah, right) and came out with (another) £6 Marble Queen Pothos. They only had 3 but as everyone was in there buying poinsettias, I managed to find one at the back. I couldn't believe my luck. Love me a pothos as you know.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

[@worldgonemad1977]

Another tip for you. Burn 2 small holes opposite each other in your ugly nursery pots , thread tie wraps through the holes and fasten. You can either make loops or totally tighten them to make longer handles. Now when you put the pot into the cache pot, you can lift it out for watering without damaging your plant.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

I’m taking a note of that one 👍

[@CrazyPlantLady911]

great idea! Thanks for the tip!

[@Tminus89]

Thank you so much for the information about basil! I bought one put it under a grow light, watered when it was dry and it died. I couldn’t understand why but it was a big bushy plant!

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Glad you found it useful 👍

[@benjif2424]

For the plastic scooper: use a lighter on the edge! It slightly melts it making a far softer edge that won't cut/scratch you (takes only a few seconds)

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Great tip 👍

[@lunarminx]

You can also use a hot iron.

[@benjif2424]

@@lunarminx hot iron sounds precarious. The good thing about a lighter is it mainly gets rids of the thin (/sharp) parts, not the main material. I imagine a hot iron is a lot harder to move over the materials edge in a short but even fashion.

Putting your soil in oven/microwave will also kill the good nutrition in the soil… Putting it in the freezer only kills the bugs and eggs, so the freezer is definitely the better option :)

The idea of using other life to control the gnats is one that I feel more people should practice. I keep praying mantis in my home just for that but I am a bit of a big lover anyway. Among all my plants are over 100 species of tarantula.

By the way, if you cut the plastic bottle and it has sharp points on the cutline, file them down with a wide emory board. Smooth. 100 grit is good

[@2244ntho66]

For a really cheap watering/potting tray for those with smaller kitchens/homes is to get foil roasting pans with deepish sides. I get the ones that are 13x9 or so inches from the dollar store. They are great for about 6 4" pots to soak up water. Glue guns also work for melting holes into plastic food containers. I like getting Chobrani 32oz yogurt containers...they come with a removable printed sleeve and you end up with a lovely white container that is tall. For the scoop made from milk carton, you can also take off the lid for a more directed pour into containers.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Thanks for the tips

Again,another great video 😊 and informative too!Hi from cold Maine😊

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Hey, thanks!

[@johnarizona3820]

Want an immediate Fungus Gnat death march? Looking for some bug payback? Here's what you do: 1. Stop watering until soil dries out. 2. Add 2 tablespoons of dish soap to a bottle of hydrogen peroxide, add a sprayer and spray the soil liberally, spray all the soils of all your plants at the same time AND the water basins under them. 3. Buy a bag of sand, rinse thoroughly and add at least one half inch to top of soil and this method stops them instantly, (I discovered this one myself and REALLY like it) whatever is left alive in the soil will soon not be. If you can get white silica sand it looks epic cool but play sand works just as well. Cover all plants soil with sand at the same time so the Gnats have no place left to land. LEAVE NO QUARTER 4. Dry up water in sinks at night and spray drains with the Soap/Hydrogen Peroxide solution ( I do not dilute and my plants have no issues in fact it is supposed to get them an oxygen boost). They must have a water source so eliminate them all when going to bed. Do all these at once and you can eliminate 99% in less than 1 day (a few hours)! Happy Hunting!

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Thanks for the regime 👍

11:03 add some dish washing detergent to the water helps to stop the soil becoming hydrophobic --- BTW leave the plant in the pot is not a drama Free tip for those who don't use a dish washer --- the used dish washing water is great for plants as it has detergent and leftover food bits .

[@kplanty3698]

They are the same/cousins(?) as the white fluffy Mealy bugs but live underground. KZbinrs Lessya's Leaves, Basie Plants, and then a pod caster Jane Perrone from "On the Ledge" have all dealt with them. I think she made comment that she spread them on her plants by reusing the water that came out of the bottom of the plants and put them in other pots to be mindful of water consumption. My skin crawls with the regular little buggers so the idea of those fluffy devils entering my household- not a pleasant one. (@@SheffieldMadePlants

Great tips and advice, thank you The watering tray is a great idea... Why didn't I think of this *sigh* 🤔😳 As for blowing the dust from leaves, I bought a small handheld USB-charged blower from some Chinese site about two years ago. I bought it to clean my PC, but it works very well with plants as well. It's not as effective as giving normal plants a shower or using a wet rag, but it's great for a quick dusting off. It works perfect for cacti and succulents As a bonus the somewhat forcefull stream of air, will often make spider mites try to escape by dropping down and thus be visible and easy to catch I don't have a link to said blower but it was pretty cheap... 20 pounds or so Cheers

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Really you can see the mites trying to escape. Sounds great 👍

[@TheNetsrac]

@@SheffieldMadePlants Yes, they'll try to escape the scene of crime by moving down vertically on a string of web, just like spiders move down.... I hate spider mites with a passion. Thrips or fruit flies are mostly just an annoyance to have around. I have yet to experience and deal with aphids and mealy bugs 🤞🏻

Our local water has both chlorines, so sitting for 24 hours really isn't helpful. I also have reptiles so I have the water treatment for them and I just use it for the plants. Two of the reptiles are in bioactive terrariums with their feeders breeding inside so calcium dusting is out. I add 5 drops of a plain liquid calcium to the misting/ drinking and plant water, helps newlywed plants roots to grow better. I moved to more soil based growing for my leafy greens but was doing kratky hydroponics and made up gallons of nutes at a time and mixed half and half with treated water for the house plants. A trick I learned at a nursery was to fill a bucket or bin with water and dunk a severely dry pot fully under the water until the bubbles stop as that is when all the soil is hydrated again. I have just started two cannabis, legal here and they are just lush and lovely but plan to grow a small cover crop as mulch and just leave it to beeak down over and over to add nutes to the soil. I also use bioactive boosters in the plant substrate and other kinds of fungi to help roots feed. I am trying to use living soil and now I just dump used in a bin to break down the roots and use again in a few months. In a fabric pot I throw all dropped leaves and dried out leafy greens in to fully dry brittle and put in the soil bin. For cuttings, i cut the bottom third of a water bottle off, cut the top eighth off or so. Thread the stems through the upside down mouth piece, put into the base and add water. It keeps the leaves from going in the water.
