I keep reading posts about epsom salts, messenger, mighty plant etc. All my in-the-ground brugs get until July, is water. Just plain water. I quit feeding and spraying them about 2 years ago in the Spring .. it seemed I was constantly fighting yellow leaves and bugs and they just weren't happy campers. Finally i decided to leave them alone. It was the best thing to do .. at least for mine during their rapid growth period. I have a few whitefly here and there .. but not enough to cause alarm and the leaves stay beautifully green. Come July I'll feed once a month, water daily with a soaker hose and spray for bugs on demand.
