Hello everyone,

I’m struggling with thrips for some months. I’ve been using regularly a mix of insecticides with modesty results and I continue to loose flowers, mainly in Phals.
Today I have received my mostly expected mail with spinosad, with a lots of hope!
Could someone please advise me how tu use that?
Thank you very much

Treat every 3 days the entire collection for 10 treatments. on treatments 3 and 7 use a different insecticide (pyrethrins, neem, insecticidal soap). Try to treat everything, leaves, flowers, stems, soil, pot.

Thrips hide and breed in leaf litter so be sure the growing area has no debris.
