Here are breeding plants. The 6.13 Brutus Magnum and her 3 Hunt Delicious suitors. I have had a few emails asking about control of indoor pests such as fungus gnats and spider mites. I use merit 75wp which seems to control the fungus gnats. Spider mites seem immune to this so for those I use Azatrol for the hydro plants and Azamax for the soils. All of these are systemics that I do not have to spray. I really do not want to spray pesticide in my living space. If I was wanting to eat the tomatoes I might have to look for another method. I also tried to take a picture of how dry I will let the pots get. I can reach and grab a handful of soil and it is completely dry. After I harvest this plant I will find a majority of the roots in the bottom 3rd of the pot. Roots grow to where the most moisture is. If the top is perfect wetness the bottom will be drowning. I know some first attempt indoor growers have emailed me and said this a lot harder than they thought it would be. It is challenging but I think the problems can be solved.
