I'm waging a war with thrips and frankly I can't tell whether I'm winning or losing. Regardless, signs of thrips remain and I continue to blast the leaf undersides with pesticide every so often. Temps are heating up outside, but who knows how long that'll last in my unpredictable area.
Seems I may have won the battle with the thrips but perhaps lost the war overall, the potassium salt based pesticide did a number on many of her leaves. I'm hoping she pulls through as she's continued to for 8 months now.
