I have some sort of unidentified bugs living on my den/phal's surface roots and I'm thinking of trying the cinnamon solution. The den is potted in PrimeAgra (semi-hydroponic), and it's in full bloom right now (50+ flowers!), so I'm a little worried about treating it. (I've never had so many blooms before...I'm like afraid to breathe on it!)
Is this safe to use for an orchid in bloom? (So long as I don't get it on any of the flowers, obviously.)
Also, should I spray, or soak, or just pour the solution on the roots? I'm kind of hesitant to soak it since it's semi-hydro, since it's not an organic medium, the whole pot would be filled with drenched with the solution and that kind of worries me. Do you need to rinse afterwords? Also, how long should I treat? (I know, you can't really tell unless you know what kind of pest it is...I'll have to take some pictures tomorrow in the daytime so someone can identify these things.)
