    Mosquito Bits for gnat control on my succulents. I generally make it into a tea.

      Please tell me more about this! Controlling gnats has been a challenge for me.

      You can sprinkle this stuff on top of the soil or in saucers - whenever water gathers - or you can soak a bunch and use the tea for normal watering. I noted a significant drop in gnats once I started.

      I'm not explaining it very well. "To use, mix 4 tablespoons of bits per gallon of water to make a 'tea,' let it sit for at least 30 minutes, then water plants with it. Consistently treat for 3–4 weeks to break the life cycle."

    “Less is Best” for most plants. I often killed my plants by watering too much. Now I follow this mantra. I wait and water when my plants are completely dry or until they give me a sign that they need to be watered (such as drooping on a peace lily). I also add conditioner to my water for those plants that are sensitive to chemicals in tap water. This has been a game changer!

      Another vote for less is best and the interim dryout!
