What is wrong with my plants????

thrips

what's a thrip? sounds like a vacation sort of....:)

it's a vacation that starts on a thursday

and a little larval stage of a flying pest that likes to eat leaves. the larvae cause the damage.

pyrethrin spray? Hey are most sprays ok for seedlngs?

No... I would not neem seedlings until they are old enough to be fed, because of the stickiness of the residue, but pyrethrin is fine- you should always do a test to see if there is going to be a problem- even grow out some shit bagseeds to abuse :D

Thanks Stinky. :)

So Pyrethrin spray is ok on seedlings? I don't want those little bastards to ruin my baby!

I would certainly do as Stinky says and test a small amount first....I used some fungus spray on my plants and overdid it big time.....should say on bottle whether it's safe for seedlings. ;)

Pests can certainly destroy your seedlings so they need something asap....:thumbsup:

I have used a few different pyr products on seedlings and it was fine but not all are the same... weedhound, that wasnt the 'fungicie 3' that comes in a green bottle was it? That's neem! It's sticky shit.

Actually it was Serenade that I used but one thought.....Brand new bottle and the spray itself had a brown tinge....I remember the spray being pretty clear on previous uses....maybe I didn't shake it up enough or something.
