Leaving it there doesn't seem to hurt either. The metho dries out the scale and the ammonia chokes it. For controlling mosquitoes from Rob Smythe is to put fresh coffee grinds into the vase and it does something to the water to stop the breeding or so another member tells me. I nnvited another member to join our group here and gave details as to how, she said that she is definitely interested. I only bought a few plants today, 1 is an Ae that i would like to identify. There is a picture included. Still no rain. Have a good one. Ian Pic 1 N rags to riches Pic 2 Ae NOID |
