Thanks for the reply! I was concerned about the oils clogging stomates as well. And if I diluted the solution, would it throw off how the oils are emulsified? Sorry, I'm new to using any sort of pesticides.
I have used food grade Diatomaceous Earth on a few outdoor plants, and also spread it in my aviary to control bird mites. I have thought about trying to sprinkle some DE on my orchids, but as a desiccant, I'm not sure if it would absorb too much moisture long-term.
I almost wish I had a phal to experiment on, but I love all of mine too much!
I'm totally broke right now or I'd just order something proven effective and safe for Orchids. Trying to work with what I have around the house before I buy something. Although If things start looking bad, I will buy whatever I need to keep them healthy!
