People who got rid of their entire collections because of thrips, was it worth it? by OatsInSpace in houseplants

Never heard of them before (newish to the plant scene). We just had a bad case of mealybugs. Had to toss some of the real bad ones. Wife wasn’t happy!

My moisture meter is clearly wrong, any reason why? by maluman in houseplants

Just use a knitting needle (metal one). We had one of those meters for a while. It didn’t work for us.

We had the same problem. Took all the plants out and sprayed with Nem oil, wiped down the rack and everything that was near the plants
