I don't think they are nematodes, at least the ones you want, those are huge, worms of some sort, not something you want in my opinion.Think I got nematodes or something alive in the drainage trays there’s a spot to check EC/ph… I’ve only been using pot poppers thought they were smaller so maybe there something else they do move

Do you use any type of Fish Emulsion or the like? Looks like what you have is White Worm cultures, which are commonly fed to farm fish.Think I got nematodes or something alive in the drainage trays there’s a spot to check EC/ph… I’ve only been using pot poppers thought they were smaller so maybe there something else they do move

I usually only have large amounts of springtails in the oly compost! Almost all i use and haven’t had that issue….yet! I get my oly from stephen and its stored indoors so usually is good to go! Where did u get yours?I planted 7 last night after a 24hr soak. Good response in the seeds, but I've had better over all.
I checked the flipped cups this morning and they all looked like little greenhouses. Went ahead and misted the cup and planting site. Might have one up tonight. They'll be up when they're up.
I'm a little pissed about the Oly compost. I saw compost mites, adult and nymph. I didn't see other nymphs, but they were there. I didn't see the adults until AFTER I dropped seeds in water.
I set the EBs up and let them run to make sure this doesn't show up. Damn fungus gnats!
While I'm out getting the car scanned, I'm gonna get a bunch of fly paper to help control the adults. If what I want otherwise for control is available locally, I'll get it.
The timing sucks. If I find it locally, I'll spray topside today. If not, it will just have to wait. I'll have to wait on adding DE around the plant, where the bugs will come in and out, will have to wait until it's up and established a few days
And this affects my GOOD bugs.............the reason I bought the Oly!
All I planted were autos. I hope how I handle this doesn't stunt them!
At least I can jump on the one that is waiting for the SeedStocker beans.
edit...........I'm gonna call BAS just to notify them, not to bitch. Let's see what their response will be. I hope they do well.
What were you eating did I spoil you dinner?
