| Anybody have solutions to get rid of thrips? I thought my blooms dropping were due to some sort of stress, but upon closer examination, I see thrips inside my blooms. A ton of them. What treatment methods have you had success with? None of my tomato plants are producing tomatoes because of the thrips infestation. My determinate is dropping its blooms also, with every bloom containing thrips. Help? |

| Best gardening move I've made in years was signing up to this forum. Never knew about thrips .. always thought those were sugar ants in those flowers. Just went out to check the plants and found a bunch in the cuke flowers. No wonder they've got little, dried up cukes. Have been blaming it on weather/irrigation issues. Thanks! |
