[stinkyattic]

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?

[stinkyattic]

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

Thanks Stinky.

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

[Weedhound]

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.
