Special Queen #1 April 2024

The growth has been impressive. The plant is outside or in the greenhouse depending on the weather. But I had to fight a major attack by thrips and gnats. I manually treated every leaf and flower stem by rubbing of the insects and spraying them with CannaCure from every side. Also I applied nematodes to the substrate. The lady looks much better now, but the insects had already damaged a few lower leafs and flower stems quite badly. This will not be a big problem going forward, but I learned an important lesson: Every day counts when these little devils attack your precious lady.
