    Diatomaceous Earth

    Im dealing with some thrips on some of my plants..in re-used coco. Surface application isnt really an option because the top surface never really dries out. So i grabbed a craft paint brush and painted the stem / branches and the little hairs on the plant hold it in place. If the brush is fine enough you can coat the grow tips! no more dust clouds

        DE can also be mixed with warm water and sprayed on the leaves with a spray bottle or garden sprayer. just leave it on for a day then rinse it off with a bottle of clean water. put a thin layer of the DE on the topsoil too.
        I hope there is an afterlife...there are a lot of friends and family I'd like to see again, one day.
