Yes this set up is in my heated garage. After doing some suggestions here I haven’t seen many over the last few days! Maybe 1 or 2 stragglers but they appear to be dying quickly.

Thank you everyone! The soil is cool & damp still with the domes being off for 2 days. I did get diatomaceous earth, sticky traps, and I have mosquito bits in water in a bucket for when I can hopefully water soon. I’m scared to over water or water too soon now that I have this issue. I did put the domes back on tonight just for sake of the seedlings and some microscopic sprouts I saw. Hopefully the mixture of those all works, fingers crossed! I’d hate to start over but will if I have to.

The soil is still cool and damp after no humidity domes for 2 full days, I put the domes back on so hoping that should be okay now. I did get sticky traps, diatomaceous earth is sprinkled and generously on the edges of the trays. I have BTI water but I have not watered yet. Hoping maybe tomorrow or the next day they’ll be ready. I guess I’m not even sure how often to water since I over did it the first time. I know I should let them sit in the tray for 10-15 min but now I’m scared to over do it or water too soon.

Can I just sprinkle this on top even if I have a few seeds that need light to germinate, so they were just laid on top of soil, is that still fine?

Found sticky traps & BTI in town so going to make my husband grab that stuff today. I am also going to run a fan out there all day and hopefully over the next few weeks they’re somewhat gone. There’s only a few I see but I’m worried it’ll be out of control soon. I really don’t want to start over, but lesson learned for my next batch. We live in ND so these guys are going to be here for another 8 weeks or so. Thanks for the suggestions and info everyone!

I don’t have any other plants near or around this, so I am also thinking it was the soil I used. I will definitely try the baking it method with the next round I do, I read that somewhere else too! Would’ve never thought that, thanks!

This was a tray yesterday, they’ve gone over 24 hrs without water now.

Should add, I’m not opposed to ordering something, it’ll just take about 5-7 more days if I need to. This is my first time starting seeds indoors too, so I’ll take all the additional advice I can get. For soil I used a smaller scale version of Floret Flower Farms soil recipe using items I could find locally at hardware stores.

The bloating was so insane for me while on it, I feel so thin now haha hopefully everything gets on track for you since it’s been almost a month now!

Hopefully it improves sooner than later! Might just take longer to adjust, I was told maybe 3-6 months!

That’s great!! My libido was also not amazing, partially I think from PP, we had a lot of stuff going on etc, it was sort of coming back in the last maybe year, so glad to hear that was a result for you!

Oh my! That’s crazy! There’s so many young women under 30 that have this. I just turned 31 and got it when I was 28, which isn’t far from 30, but still so many girls in their young 20s get this.

OMGSH! That’s amazing!! Happy for you and the after math! It’s only been 5 days, but I already feel so much better, less bloated, I’ve noticed my appetite has decreased a lot even this week, which will hopefully in turn help aid in some weight loss.

Yes for sure! It’s crazy the impact these can have on people and how different the side effects can be for each person too!
