Can you source the right nematodes? cn

? How much cinnamon would i b mixing per gallon. so i could scare away these gnats. Thx

I've never had to do it myself, so basically "I don't know" ... but it wasn't mixed into liquid. It was used as a sprinkle/topdressing for the soil. A tablespoon for a 5-gal pot? cn

Neem Seed Meal or Diatomaceous Earth would be more effective. 1TBS/Gallon would work fine.

I spread a good amount of DE as a cap on the top soil, but the little bastards kept on coming. I don't 'do' soil, but was baby sitting a plant in a pot for 30 days. It was brutal. When DE failed, I resorted to an electric fly zapper 4-5Xs a day. I would have loved to try cinnamon, but I pulled the plant 4 days ago
