if possible, 4 to 5 inches deep and at least 6 inches 
apart. From the time the plants are 6 inches high 
they should be sprayed for thrips at least once 
a week, because thrips may blow in from some 
distance and infest them even though the bulbs 
were clean when planted. To control thrips we 
recommend the use of a 25% DDT spray.
