hey

i plan on buying a pack of lady bugs from the nursery... the problem though is they only come in a pack of 1500... i'm dividing them between 4 plants... do you think that 1500 is overkill between 4 medium-sized bushy plants?

thanks!!!

yes -- i have a light (or so i think) spider mite problem... :mad:

i have the, "don't bug me" spray from fox farms -- but my plants just started flowering a few days ago so now i'm trying to go the all-natural route.

using lady bugs seems to make more then enough sense to me but i'm still not quite sure and am open to all opinions/suggestions!

i swear i'm going to shit bricks if all the money/time i've invested gets ruined by frickin' spiders mites!!!

argh!!!

thanks!!!

:)

One time I got a bunch (20,000) of lady bugs for my outdoor garden and they didn't really take care of the aphids in my garden. All I learned from that experience was that lady bugs bite.

yeah apparently they dont like it to much when they've been stuck in a bag together for a day or two in 100+ weather.
