Abate for CP water trays
« Thread Started on Jan 16, 2007, 11:05am » guys/gals,

I have a newbie question. Since we use water trays extensively to keep our CPs happy and moist, I am wondering if we can put abate(mosquito prevention) in our trays? Anyone tried this.

Please advise. Thank you.

Rgds,
Isaac

If you have an extra plant that is the black sheep in the family, you can try it on that "fella". Perhaps a Sundew that refuses to produce dews and always look like a lump of rotten vegetables.

... eh, just kidding! Don do that.
