Pepper saga.......... Pepper expert anyone?

Which is why my practice when I use a soap spray is to do it in the coolest part of the day, then rinse the plants with fresh water afterwards. Soap kills very quickly. Hit the pests with a good soaking spray of soap solution, then come back to the start of your spray circuit and do a rinse, and the pest will have died and the foliage damage should be minimal. I can absolutely vouch for this with earwigs, aphids, and leaf beetles. -- Pat in Plymouth MI ('someplace.net' is comcast) After enlightenment, the laundry. |
