I use cucumeris, Stratiolaelaps scimitus, and nematodes. Sometimes swirskii In fact in picking up an order on Tuesday. Lucky for me I live about half an hour from a farm (insectory...?)

Yea, I forgot, I used nematodes as well in combination with cucumeris.

Bloody thrips.

Well it's finally gotten to me!

I switched medium from Miracle-Gro moisture control to Promix HP mycorrhizae yesterday while up potting from 1 gal to 3 gal and the difference in quality of the medium is like 10 fold.

Meanwhile the cucumeris have been on the plants for about a week and I still visually see thrips, so might have to double up with nematodes again... little cunts.

The soil mites are good too
With the sachets it takes about 3 weeks for the cucumeris to establish. They also don't eat a ton of thrips every day. Just a few.
