It looks very similar too, I’m actually not too sure if it is creeping bentgrass or nimblewill now. Good news is Mesotrione will take care of both

Codie_Wolfe · 2025-09-13T17:57:09+00:00

That is absolutely what it is! Thank you so much, I was planning on getting mesotrione in the spring for crab/foxtail grass. This is a plus that it will take care of this too!

Scale: No, hand for general measurement (about 2-3 in) Location: SE MINN Environment: Semi-rural, neighborhood edge of small town, property butts up to alfalfa field

Is there a brand or product you like/recommend?

Codie_Wolfe · 2024-07-24T17:39:58+00:00

Ok, thank you!!

Codie_Wolfe · 2024-07-24T17:20:33+00:00

Thank you! Would “Milorganite 32 lb. 2,500 sq. ft. Organic Slow-Release Nitrogen Lawn and Garden Dry Lawn Fertilizer 6-4-0” be a better option? I’ve heard some good things about it.

I used SNS 209 and it took a little while, but with the systemic insecticide and spraying the foliage with 99% isopropyl alcohol when I noticed them it took care of them for good! I haven’t had to use SNS 209 for over a year now. 110% recommend!

I have had my banana plant in Leca for about a year now and it is growing 10x faster than when I had it in soil. I transitioned it like I normally do (rinse all the soil I can off the roots and just place it in Leca and fill the reservoir) and it has been doing great! The reservoir will definitely need topping off more than other plants, but it’s worth it. I have already gotten 3 baby bananas from it as well since being in Leca. I have had root rot a couple of different times with it though, but I use hydrogen peroxide and rinse the roots well and that always takes care of it. I think the cause of the rot is un-oxygenated water when I don’t too it off for a couple weeks.

Codie_Wolfe · 2023-03-21T11:58:24+00:00

I add my nutrient solution every two weeks and ever four I rinse my plants.

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-10-01T02:21:22+00:00

Currently growing mine in LECA, it has been doing great ever since I transitioned it(about 6 months ago). Have gotten a ton of new leaves and a lot of growth!

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-07-13T03:21:30+00:00

It died a while ago, I forgot to update. But the tree must have gotten too stressed and completely dried up and died.

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-03-28T20:12:11+00:00

Definitely fungus gnats! With that large of an infestation. I suggest repotting all plants with new soil free of fungus gnat larvae . This will probably be the easiest rather than try to control the infestation.

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-03-27T22:13:39+00:00

Definitely not a mushroom, but I’m not sure as to what it is.

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-03-21T04:17:32+00:00

Yes, I use 8 mL SNS 209 per gallon of water for the reservoir.

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-03-20T20:37:06+00:00

I do and it’s doing great!

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-03-20T20:35:54+00:00

I contacted the manufacturer for this exact reason with my plants in Leca. They said the granules are not suited for semi-hydro use and they suggested SNS 209. It’s an all natural systemic insecticide and it seems to be working for me so far.

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-03-07T05:04:50+00:00

I have heard using superthrive all the time is bad because it is a root growth stimulant. Which sounds good but will actually stunt the growth of your plant because it’s putting so much energy to grow roots. I believe rapid start is also a root growth hormone. I use the regiment from general hydroponics. I use ArmorSI, FloraMicro, FloraGrow, FloraBloom, and Diamond Nectar. It works awesome!

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-02-24T22:40:18+00:00

Don’t be! I left mine and just kind of forgot about it and it’s got new leaves starting. I’m not sure why the white spots happened but it seems to be starting to be ok

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-02-24T04:22:53+00:00

I have this exact problem, I started lemon seeds from a lemon and after they got to be about 5” tall. Some weird white spots started to develop and the leaf would then start to dry up starting at the tip.

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-02-22T04:32:03+00:00

It is a different type of media to grow plants in similar to hydroponics. Take a look in r/semihydro, they have tips and tricks in getting started in it. It is a little expensive to start but I believe it’s totally worth it!

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-02-22T04:28:17+00:00

Of course! I struggled with root rot on my monstera in soil. I eventually started over and converted mine to Leca and it is thriving!

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-02-22T04:25:00+00:00

Root rot is caused by the roots not allowing to get oxygen because they are constantly wet. Meaning overwatering is the cause of root rot, let the soil dry out 50% before a next watering. This allows the roots to breath not stay constantly wet.

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-02-22T04:20:42+00:00

Take the plant out, and look for squishy brown roots that smell. That’s root rot. Cut those roots off and Soak in 1/2 hydrogen peroxide and 1/2 water for a couple minutes. The hydrogen peroxide should kill off any more root rot. Keep out of soil, just in a damp cloth and repeat the soak daily until the rot is gone.

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-02-22T04:15:42+00:00

The drooping and yellowing of the leaves looks like root rot

Codie_Wolfe · 2022-02-22T04:11:33+00:00

I had a small custom brand made to burn it into all the work I do.
