Treatment of Gladiolus 
Bulbs for Thrips 
A good treatment to give the bulbs just be- 
fore planting is the use of Lysol solution. 
Mix 4 teaspoonsful of Lysol to 1 gallon of 
water. Soak the bulbs in this solution for 3 
hours or more. 
We have had good success with Ortho Isotox 
for Thrip after the bulbs have been planted. 
Start spraying when the plants are 6 to 8 
inches high, one application every 10 days, 
until the buds appear and then the spraying 
can be discontinued. Refer to page 37.
