Hi Lahad!

What, if you don't mind, is Pythrum and what's it all about?

I've used a few things for my thrips and they still seem to wanna hang out in my lab - fukers!
I heard of this before, originating from China, but I've not heard of a specific version for use with our lil hobby and hadn't even considered it. Is there a specific one in a bottle, or did you just find the extract and magic it together yourself? Be really interested to know how I can try this Thanks!

Pyrethrum is extracted from species of Chrysanthemums. IDK which one. Totally organic way to combat pests. Another pesticide that is fairly benign, it's used on animals, is called Permithrin. Look it up. It works.

yo Dan...........what's shakin'? my garden is being fried. this heat is fierce. i actually get too much sun. hard to keep it watered. i have my new poppy beds shaded, and i'm watering twice a day. i'll post pics later today.

Thanks Dannyboy coz I've just woken up!!
Yes, it comes from the pollen of these big white flowers but be careful as it's strong. I just had a mishap myself and I've been using it for ages. It's great fro thrips too.

Fairy..............buenas tardes

How was the Yoga, Bigfoot? Was it so stifling that u thought it was Bikram?

no Bikram.........it was hot enough in that studio. yoga was good. thank you

Ur having a bit of a late on aren't u ? Must be dark there. I disagree with time zones, so complicated. Hardly anyone on-line now, I'm just doing a bit of internet stalking. I actually woke up at 5am thinking I was being broken into - very scary. It was just the cleaner. I need another dog!
