beneficial nematodes update: it's been about 2 weeks since adding the nematodes \& the plant babies LOVED them.✨ in just a few days the gnats literally disappeared. i put a top dressing of LECA on some of them \& the gnats have stayed away from even the ones that like to stay moist. i also put fresh yellow sticky traps in some of the pots to keep track of new gnats \& there are barely any on them! would recommend! 🌿🙅🏽‍♀️🦟
