Hi all,
Recently i've seen some problems on two of my rose plants new growth. The new growth shows sign of burn and when i reviewed it closely it contains very small white lice like insects, they arent aphids. Can you please recommend some good insecticide for it.
I do have an insecticide called PS-100, which i bought here in Khi from MJ traders.
Regards,
-Ayub

Re: Rose Problem
Roses are struggling nowadays in heat and are susceptible to many infestations. Any pesticide with "choline esterase inhibitor" will work also check the antidote mentioned on it if it is "Atropine" then its is a choline esterase inhibitor.
Wash your plants daily in morning or evening with pressure, it helps a lot and do not fertilize the struggling plants at all, unless they start producing new strong shoots...
Do post its picture so the pest could be identified.
