Subject: White flies? From: Tom Stone <tstone@naturegolf.com> Organization: NaturGolf Date: Tue, 20 Apr 99 03:26:45 Message-ID: <MOD$990419.23005@rec.gardens.ecosystems>
I decided to try growing our garden organically this year vs.
chemicals. I have not observed any notes about whiteflies yet. I
noticed my first 'buddies' flitting around the tomatoes this evening. >From past experience with them, unless they are controlled soon, they
will be the death of my tomatoes.
In using insecticidal soaps in the past, I have not been very successful
in controlling them since they hide under the leaves. Maybe I am
applying the soap with the wrong type of applicator or something. I
also thought that the sprinklers might be washing off the soap.
Do you have any suggestions? I appreciate your input.
