So in 4-5 weeks into flower and im battling PM/fungus gnats, and now Thrips. Sux, but i figure it comes with the territory. NEways, PM and Gnats are under control, but in the thrips, I just found last night and one of my BlueberryXWhite Widows, (leafy bitch) had alot. I immedately sprayed her and surrounding plants down with Azamax at 25ml per gal.
Today I bought Lady bugs to help with the infestation/moniter it. Ive read that Lbugs dont completely kill the population of thrips but will help a grip and when the lady bugs die off, its a good sign the thrip population is vanishing.(lbugs die as food source dies off).
So i have questions on the ladybugs if i may;
1) are they worth introducing into my room
2) since i sprayed azamax 24 hrs ago, should i wait to release Lbugs? How long?
3)I was told to release them at lights off, correct? Why?
4) I was told to spray them with sugar water/ Sprite, to keep them from flying to my lights(which are bare bulbs), is that correct, and whats the logic(sticky wings cant fly?)
Thanks for the help in advance Farm.
