Physan & Orthene Q
All,
I have had some probs with fungus and also, this month, either thrips or aphids. (I vote for aphids, because I can usually see thrips.) The streaks in flowers on a few plants made it clear that some beasties were at work. We treated with Physan, at 2 tsp/gal, first, before we noticed the bug problem. A week later, we treated with Orthene. Having used Orthene before at label recommended dilution and seeing leaf damage afterward, I asked a very successful local grower what strength he uses; he said 2 tsp/gal (much less than the label recommends, but you can't argue with his success). The leaves on our Vandas sustained a good bit of damage right after the treatments. They look scorched in places. Any help at all for this? I'm really at a loss now. To make matters worse, I recently bought a mature Asctrm. from a friend. What happened to it is the subject of another thread. Yuck. Diana |
