How to gank as a Mid laner
I see every almost every enemy Mid laner knowing when to gank bot or top, or at least ganking even if the timing is not right, but me. I don't really know when to gank bot or top or where to place wards to catch off guard the enemy Jungler and get an easy kill.
Even if I kill my enemy laner I will keep farming the wave that is in front of me and probably the next one as well under the enemy turret. The chances of me going to gank bot sadly are extremely low.
I would like to get some tips on when to gank bot or top since it seems that I can't really find any time in the game to gank other lane because I'll be too busy farming.

First of all, if you the enemy mid laner is missing in action on mid, you should push the wave to his turret. Then you can either recall, hit the turret, kill dragon or gank a lane. You should always try to gank the lanes that are most pushed. A nice thing to do is to keep an eye on the junglers. Yes, both! If your jungler is top, the enemy bot lane will often feel safe from ganks and might not ward their lanes immediately which makes them vulnerable to ganks. It also depends on which champion you play. Fizz is an excellent ganker. The term we are looking for is roaming. It means that you leave your lane to pressure other lanes. Fizz is great because he has enormous burst damage and can quickly escape. An example of a bad ganker would be Anivia because she is way too slow. However, it's still possible with the help of your teammate at that lane.

Which lane should you gank?
Early Game Sweetspot Many times, you can gank a lane early on and grab some kind of advantage that will snowball the game out of control. Because many champions begin to pull apart when they get kill potential with their ultimate abilities, a good idea is to gank right before a lane reaches level 6.How do you gank on top lane?
To gank the blue side top laner, you want to go through the blue side tribush and gank them under their turret. It's a little sketchy and more effective if the enemy has low health. You'll take at least one turret shot doing this gank though some champions are more effective at this gank due to wall jumps.The ONLY WAY to GANK as a Mid Laner: Best Tips to CARRY and Rank Up FAST | Dota 2 Pro Guide
